That, however, is where the similarities end.
THE QUIET LIFE
While Travis, as extensively reported by The U.S. Sun, is living the high life with superstar girlfriend Taylor Swift, dropping thousands of dollars on clothes and eyeing up luxurious love nests in Italy, older bro Jason prefers to remain low-key.
“He loves the simple life,” a source close to the Kelce’s told The U.S. Sun. “Jason is the perfect anti-star.”
Travis is riding the wave of his popularity, throwing himself into numerous business opportunities, as well as preparing for glory push with the all-conquering Kansas City Chiefs.
Jason, meanwhile, has ended his 13-year career in the NFL and will begin his role as an ESPN analyst on Monday Night Football when the new season begins this fall.
BUSY RETIREMENT
But between now and then, the 36 year-old is more than happy to chill at home with wife Kylie and their three children Wyatt, Elliotte and Bennett.
Instead of throwing himself into the showbiz spotlight, Jason immerses himself into home life.
The Philadelphia Eagles legend, according to our insider, spends plenty of time in his extensive, personal library at home. Jason was a history and literature student at school, and splashes around $2,000 a month on vintage copies of books.
When not learning, he loves mowing the grass on his $4,000 lawn tractor, and cooking up a storm on the grill.
The source says he spends “over $1,000” on meat when hosting parties, and likes to wash everything down with some of his impressive craft beer selections.
He imports new ones every month and is eyeing a move into the brewing industry.
“Jason is definitely keen to learn more about the beer business,” the source revealed.
The piece de resistance, however, is the elder Kelce’s $15,000 mancave.
ICONIC COLLECTION
The sports memorabilia fanatic has plowed some of his fortune into a bunch of items, such as iconic gloves and jerseys.
But, unlike Travis, there aren’t many $80,000 shopping trips at super high-end stores.
“He doesn’t care about fashion,” continued the insider who claims Jason is happiest in his favorite pair of sneakers – a $70 pair of Nike Air Monarch’s – Birkenstocks or flip-flops.
“A basic pair of Levi’s and a shirt will do for him. He lives a simple life and enjoys the simple pleasures.”
