UPDATE: Tensions are rising between NFL stars Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes as insiders reveal Kelce must tread carefully to avoid upsetting his teammate. This revelation comes following Kelce’s visible frustration during a recent game against the Philadelphia Eagles, where he was seen tossing his helmet and expressing anger during a pivotal moment.

According to a report from RadarOnline, Kelce’s temper has become a growing concern. An insider stated, “There’s more of an edge to him now, and his temper is getting the best of him.” Those close to the star tight end warn that his ambitions are causing significant stress, with the source adding, “But the fact remains, the guy is cracking up.”

Despite this turmoil, Kelce appears determined to maintain a positive relationship with Mahomes, especially as they collaborate on business ventures. The insider emphasized, “Travis can’t afford to p*** off Patrick.” This comes at a crucial time as the two are not just teammates but also co-business partners.

Recently, Mahomes celebrated his birthday in style, reportedly spending $70,000 on extravagant gifts for Kelce. The gifts included a custom watch, designer clothing, and rare bottles of wine, showcasing their close bond. Kelce also joined in the festivities at their co-owned restaurant, 1587 Prime, located inside the Loews Kansas City Hotel.

This is not the first instance of Kelce’s lavish gifts for Mahomes. Last year, Mahomes revealed on Audacy’s The Drive podcast that Kelce gifted him a luxurious Louis Vuitton golf bag. The duo’s partnership extends beyond the field into the culinary world, with Mahomes sharing their vision for the restaurant. “We’re always together. We’re always at these restaurants, and we have a love for bringing people together,” he said in an interview with Fox 4 Kansas City. “We’re going to do whatever we can to continue to bring people together and what better place than Kansas City.”

As Kelce navigates his frustrations on the field, the stakes are high. The tight end must balance his competitive spirit with the need to keep Mahomes on his side, both in the locker room and in their business endeavors. Fans will be watching closely to see how this dynamic unfolds in the coming weeks.
