Kansas City Chiefs

Travis Kelce, Patrick Mahomes and the rest of the Chiefs received their newest Super Bowl rings on Thursday night ... and the bling was so loaded with diamonds and rubies, the stars couldn't wait to show them off!!

The guys got the championship rings -- their third in the last five years -- at a special ceremony in KC ... and once they broke the jewelry out of a locked box, it wasn't hard to see all of the dudes were enamored by the pieces.

Each one features 529 diamonds and 38 rubies. The ice also has a top that opens up and holds an homage to the "Tom & Jerry" play that won Super Bowl LVIII. Every player and coach's last name is engraved on it as well.

Patrick Mahomes rocks a Kansas City Chiefs jersey on Sunday, but he's a Texas native at heart ... and that's why the 3x NFL MVP pulled up with his wife Brittany to cheer on the Dallas Mavericks for the pivotal third game vs. the Boston Celtics in the NBA Finals!

The 3x Super Bowl champ was spotted courtside (where else?!) with Britt at American Airlines Center ... where the couple was all smiles for the cameras.

It's not the first playoff game the Mahomeses have attended ... they were also in the building for a Western Conference Finals tilt between the Mavericks and Minnesota Timberwolves.

Travis Kelce will have plenty of career options once he hangs up his NFL cleats for good ... but he just revealed there's one job he's currently eyeing the most -- broadcasting!

The Chiefs star made the revelation on this week's episode of "New Heights" ... when he and his big brother, Jason, were talking about the prospects of owning an NFL franchise.

Jason said he'd love to be the honcho of an org. -- specifically the Eagles -- but Travis was adamant he wanted no part of it. When asked why, TK said it's simple ... he'd rather be a Tony Romo or a Greg Olsen.

Travis Kelce gave a little taste on Tuesday of what Taylor Swift's cooking is like ... confirming she does make some good desserts -- although, at first, he was reluctant to give any juicy details.

The pop star's kitchen skills were brought up following the Chiefs star's afternoon workout ... when a reporter asked about a video Swift had recently posted of the two.

In the footage, Kelce and the "Love Story" singer can be seen huddling over a pan -- before the tight end plants a kiss on her face.

Great news on BJ Thompson ... the Chiefs defensive lineman was released from the hospital days after going into cardiac arrest at a team meeting!

Thompson's agent Chris Turnage confirmed to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero that the 25-year-old was discharged from the Kansas City, Missouri hospital on Tuesday ... and his loved ones are very grateful for the love they were shown.

"The family thanks everyone for their prayers and wants to especially thank the Chiefs medical and training staff for their rapid response and professionalism throughout this situation," Turnage said.

Kansas City Chiefs trainer Rick Burkholder says Harrison Butker is a hero ... revealing on Friday the kicker helped save a teammate who was having a medical emergency on Thursday.

Burkholder told a roomful of reporters that just moments after BJ Thompson suffered a sudden seizure during a special teams meeting at the Chiefs' practice facility ... it was Butker who raced out to get aid.

Burkholder said Butker "immediately ran toward the training room" to make staffers aware of the situation ... allowing the professionals to rush to the scene before things got dire.

The Kansas City Chiefs got some great news on Friday ... their defensive end, BJ Thompson, woke up responsive following a horrifying medical scare on Thursday.

The 25-year-old had been unconscious after suffering a seizure and cardiac arrest while in a team meeting ... but his agent, Chris Turnage, told NFL Network's Tom Pelissero things got much better on Friday morning.

Turnage said Thompson was able to come to ... and now, his "prognosis is good."

10:02 AM PT -- The player who suffered the medical emergency was reportedly BJ Thompson -- a defensive end who Kansas City selected with a fifth-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft.

Thompson, 25, played in just one game in his rookie season, logging two tackles.

A Kansas City Chiefs player suffered a medical emergency on Thursday morning ... and now, the team's revealed it's canceled its planned practice in the wake of the scare.

The player has not yet been identified publicly by the organization -- nor has KC given an update on his status ... but, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, it was "a backup defensive lineman" who suffered a seizure in a special teams meeting.

Pelissero reported the athlete went into cardiac arrest ... but, thankfully, trainers raced to his aid, got him in an ambulance, and he's now currently in stable condition.

Travis Kelce wants everyone to know he's still just a regular guy at heart ... despite being a three-time Super Bowl champ, podcasting juggernaut, up-and-coming actor, and boyfriend to the biggest musician on the planet.

The Kansas City Chiefs superstar opened up on just how awesome his life is during a sit-down with "Good Morning America" on Thursday ... and while he's becoming one of the most famous athletes around, he said he's not taking any of it for granted.

"I’m so fortunate, so grateful of everything that's come my way in life," the 34-year-old said.

Katy Perry knows how to switch things up ... she has turned Kansas City Chief's Kicker Harrison Butker into a butt-kicker in support of women's and LGBTQ+ rights!

Katy posted an extreme edit of Butker's Benedictine College commencement speech, where he essentially said a woman's place is in the home and the movement for LGBTQ+ rights was downright dangerous.

You gotta listen to Katy's version ... Harrison sounds like AOC!

Travis Kelce had an on-the-surface uncomfortable moment Saturday night when Jason Sudeikis pressed him on sealing the deal with Taylor Swift, but it was all planned out.

The 2 dudes, along with Robert Smigel and George Wendt performed a skit at the Big Slick Celebrity Weekend in Kansas City.

Sudeikis was in disguise -- fake mustache and sunglasses, so no one would know it was him, right -- was sitting at a table with the guys, as they asked Taylor's BF if she was gonna pay for a spanking new stadium. And then they went in for the kill!

Travis Kelce appears to be going stag to the Chiefs' White House party ... Kansas City just posted a vid of him getting on a bus to 1600 Penn Ave. -- with no Taylor Swift in sight.

Kelce, Patrick Mahomes and the rest of the 2023 Super Bowl champions are slated to be honored by Joe Biden at a title celebration later on Friday afternoon ... and many had wondered if the K.C. tight end's famous girlfriend would make the trip.

After all, she's on a break from her "Eras" tour shows -- albeit a very brief one -- and White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said all of the Swifties in the building were sure hoping to see her.

Travis Kelce got an unwelcome welcome at Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals ... some pretty thunderous boos!!!

Travis and teammate Patrick Mahomes were sitting courtside when they were shown on the video board and announced. Travis got some cheer, but lots of boos, and he seemed a bit taken aback, but still smiling.

Then his QB was announced, and the reception was way friendlier ... lots of cheers and PM stood up to hype up the crowd. Brittany was sitting by his side, basking in her hubby's glow.

Harrison Butker was back before a podium Friday in his first public appearance since his controversial commencement speech – and he stood firm in his beliefs without giving an inch to his detractors.

Last evening, the K.C. Chiefs kicker gave another sermon onstage for the "Courage Under Fire" gala at Regina Caeli Academy – a traditional Catholic institution – in Nashville, Tennessee.

As a member of the school's board of directors, Butker leaned in heavily on his message from Benedictine College two weeks ago that rubbed many people the wrong way.

Travis Kelce is coming to Harrison Butker's defense ... insisting the Kansas City Chiefs kicker is both "a great person and a great teammate."

The future Hall of Famer made the comments on the latest episode of his "New Heights" podcast Friday ... touching publicly on his pal's controversial Benedictine College speech for the first time since it sparked a slew of outrage earlier this month.

Many, of course, had been itching for Kelce's opinion on the matter ... especially after Butker evoked the name of the tight end's girlfriend, Taylor Swift, during the polarizing chat with graduates.

After two weeks of outrage, Harrison Butker's controversial commencement speech finally resulted in someone's firing -- it just wasn't the Chiefs' placekicker who lost his job -- but instead, a member of the City of K.C.'s social media team got the axe after doxxing the Super Bowl champ.

On Thursday, Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas revealed the city "separated" from a K.C. staffer who publicly roasted 28-year-old Butker after his Benedictine College speech, tweeting, "Just a reminder that Harrison Butker lives in the City of Lee's Summit."

The message was deleted shortly after ... and an apology put up in its place -- "We apologies (sic) for our previous tweet. It was shared in error."
