Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce are not the most popular players in the NFL: A friend of theirs sold more jerseys
Despite being Super Bowl champions, they were not the most common jerseys on sale
Patrick Mahomes might be the biggest name in American Football but he isn’t the best-selling jersey so which mystery player has managed to leapfrog the Kansas City Chiefs’ star quarterback?
Is it Travis Kelce? After all, his relationship with Taylor Swift launched him to new heights of celebrity status and fame, are the Swifties helping him cash in? No, it isn’t him either according to the NFL Players Association.
The men with the most shirt sales turned out to be both Philadelphia Eagles stars as their quarterback, Jalen Hurts, and their now-retired center, Jason Kelce, came out on top in a study sampled from March 2023-February 2024.
Mahomes finished third in the standing, narrowly beating out his tight end to the punch as Travis Kelce came in at fourth. The San Francisco 49ers’ exceptional running back, Christian McCaffrey, closed out the top five.
Why did the Eagles dominate the top two?
Hurts and Kelce came out on top thanks to their incredible 2022/23 NFL run that saw them make Super Bowl LVII, although they were stopped in the final game of the season by the Chiefs.
Nonetheless, that left hype for them heading into 2023/24 at an all-time high as the city of Philadelphia got firmly behind them.
