Although the NFL star has no children of his own, he is a devoted uncle to brother Jason Kelce’s three daughters — Bennett, 7 months, Elliotte, 2, and Wyatt, 3. Speaking to PEOPLE earlier this year, Jason’s wife Kylie Kelce celebrated the bond between her girlfriend and their uncle.

Although she tried to tell Travis that he can refuse many of his nieces’ requests, he is a good sport about the game.

“Our oldest, she’s our boss. She’s our circle leader and she just has demand after demand for him. And I’m like, ‘Trav, you know you can tell Wyatt no?’ ”

“He was like ‘Yeah, I don’t think I can.’ And so he will do it,” she said.

“She’ll say, ‘Jump up and down.’ He’ll do it. ‘Roll on the floor,’ he’ll do it. ‘Be a pony.’ He’s going to do it. So he’s all in when it comes to being an uncle. He’s the epitome of an uncle, completely.”
