Travis Kelce's final game with the Kansas City Chiefs might be on the horizon.

The Chiefs are set to play the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 18, marking their final game of the regular season after being eliminated from playoff contention.

While fans and media await Kelce's decision on his future in the NFL , the Chiefs have been promoting the Kansas City star's campaign for Walter Payton Man of the Year.

On Wednesday, the Chiefs shared a few photos of Kelce's recent gesture where he surprised a young fan with Super Bowl tickets.

"The surprise of a lifetime, thanks to 87," posted the official social media account of the Kansas City Chiefs. "Still not over @killatrav surprising Jeremiyah with tickets to SBLX ❤️ Vote for him for the Walter Payton Man of the Year Charity Challenge at the link in our bio."

Thanks to Kelce's philanthropic ventures, the young fan will be watching Super Bowl LX in person at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, the home of the San Francisco 49ers.

A few other names across the league that are up for the Walter Payton Man of the Year award include: Solomon Thomas ( Dallas Cowboys), Baker Mayfield (Tampa Bay Buccaneers ) and Maxx Crosby ( Las Vegas Raiders).
