Within the next decade, chances are we'll see both Travis and Jason Kelce enshrined in the Hall of Fame. When they do, their mother will be waiting.
When @tkelce & @JasonKelce became the first brothers to play against each other in a Super Bowl, their mother, @dkelce1, earned national headlines.

Donna Kelce's jersey she wore during Super Bowl LVII when her sons became the first brothers to play each other in a Super Bowl made its way to Canton and is on display at the Hall of Fame, along with the shoes she wore to mark the historic occasion.
Both the shoes and jersey honored both her sons, with the jersey a mash-up of the ones worn by her two sons and one shoe with a Chiefs logo and Travis's No. 87 while the other had an Eagles logo and Jason's No. 62.
The Chiefs won the Super Bowl 38-35, further cementing Travis Kelce's claim as one of the greatest tight ends of all time. He just completed his seventh consecutive 1,000-yard season, passing Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe on the career yards list by a tight end.
He is fourth all-time with 10,344 yards. Only Antonio Gates (11,841 yards), Jason Witten (13,046 yards) and Tony Gonzales (15,127 yards) recorded more receiving yards at the position.
It's harder to quantify Jason Kelce's impact as a center but his six Pro Bowls and five All-Pro appearances are a nice start. Per Pro Football Reference, his career compares favorably to other centers who made the Hall of Fame.
They each have a strong case for induction but neither will be the first Kelce in the Hall of Fame. This time, their mom has bragging rights over them both.
