Travis Kelce has broken his silence following the deadly shooting at the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl parade that left one person dead and nearly two dozen injured.

The Chiefs tight end released a message alongside his brother Jason, which appeared on social media on Monday afternoon ahead of the new episode of their New Heights podcast.

‘We have a pre-recorded episode for you guys coming up on Wednesday but after the tragic events of the Super Bowl parade in Kansas City, it didn’t feel right without you guys hearing from us first,’ Travis said.

‘Kansas City and Chiefs Kingdom we love you guys. we’re with you guys and we’ll see you guys soon.’

The brothers encouraged fans to donate to an emergency fund which will provide support for victims, their families, the first responders as well as violence prevention and mental health services.

Kelce matched girlfriend Taylor Swift ‘s $100,000 donation to victims of last week’s shooting following the Chiefs’ Super Bowl rally.

A GoFundMe page shows a pair of $50,000 donations from his charity, the Eighty-Seven & Running Foundation – an organization that aims to help ‘underserved youth strive to become productive citizens.’

The GoFundMe page was started by friends of the Reyes family, who had two young daughters wounded in the shooting. Swift, meanwhile, donated to the family of Elizabeth Lopez-Galvan, who was killed in the shooting.

The donation came after Kelce took waves of criticism for partying in the wake of the shooting.

Kelce was among the Chiefs stars who went ahead with a ‘scaled down’ celebration just hours after tragedy struck.

‘We just wanted to say our hearts go out to all of the victims, their families, Chiefs Kingdom and all of Kansas City that was really there on a day to try and celebrate the community. It’s unfortunate and deeply tragic the events that occured,’ Jason said.
