According to those who coached the Kelce brothers before they reached super heights in the NFL, the two brothers are as genuine as they come and always have been going back to their days as Cleveland Heights student-athletes.
But make no mistake about it, Jones said, Travis was so competitive back then that if he could have thrown the ball to himself he would have.
Described by his old coaches as a “violent runner” back then, he was also able to block with the best of them, with old coaches more than a decade later still bringing up anecdotes of him pancake-blocking then-Ohio State recruit and Euclid standout Thaddeus Gibson. Philadelphia picked up Jason in 2011 as a sixth-round pick. Two years later, the Chiefs took Travis in the third round.

That story maybe best represents how down-to-earth both the brothers are when it comes to their hometown.“I wanted this for them because this is something they will never, ever forget and to be for the first time in the history of the NFL for this to happen -- come on, how much better is that?”One of the most notable ways the brothers represent Cleveland Heights is via their podcast “” that bills them as “football’s funniest family duo,” with the show name being a reference to their hometown.
“They are Cleveland Heights through and through, and they’ve always claimed Heights,” Creel said. “Obviously their parents did a wonderful job raising them, but the community in Cleveland Heights helped raise them, too. And they’re very appreciative of Cleveland Heights and what Cleveland Heights has done for them. So they will always pay homage to the place they’re from.”
