News about George Karlaftis

Taylor Swift appeared to stay away as Travis Kelce hosted his second annual Kelce Car Jam charity event in Kansas City, with this edition coinciding with his 35th birthday. Travis was joined by his older brother Jason Kelce, as well as his parents, Ed and Donna Kelce. A few of his Chiefs teammates were also in attendance including Patrick Mahomes and George Karlaftis.

Jason and Ed Kelce have arrived for Travis' annual charity event, Kelce Car Jam, in Kansas City on Saturday night, which also fell on the Chiefs' tight end's 35th birthday. Travis' older brother and father were expected in town to celebrate his birthday, with his mother, Donna Kelce, also making an appearance at the event. Jason is slated to call Monday Night Football for the first time in two days as Travis and the Chiefs host the Saints.

One of Travis Kelce's Chiefs teammates has defended the All-Pro tight end amid his difficult start to the season.  Kelce, 34, is averaging a career-worst 23 yards per game through three contests and looked rather miserable on the sideline during his team's win over the Falcons last Sunday night. Some fans have even called for him to 'retire.' Nonetheless, his teammate George Karlaftis has told TMZ that the tight end 'hasn't skipped a beat.'

A furious Travis Kelce shoved his own Chiefs teammate after a late hit on Kadarius Toney at training camp. Toney caught a ball from Patrick Mahomes and evaded a couple of defenders after the catch before he was laid out by George Karlaftis. The receiver fell to the ground and a small fracas ensued as Toney threw the ball at Karlaftis, while Mahomes jogged over to where the play ended and appeared to say something.

On the final day of OTAs, the Kansas City Chiefs had positive news to share about BJ Thompson after his medical emergency on Thursday. But if there was any time for such a horrific event to happen, it came at a point where the Chiefs had recently drilled into their staff the proper emergency procedure in case of such an incident. Following an NFL mandate, the Chiefs practiced their emergency action plan for medical personnel on Monday. It was done so with a company called Sports Medicine Emergency Management, who helped the teams trainers practice scenarios such as Thompson's seizure.

While trying to taunt Kansas City Chiefs defensive lineman George Karlaftis, some fans on social media chastised him for not recovering a fumble. Kittle's laissez-faire early-game attitude may have cost his team a lot of money, as 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey fumbled the pigskin directly behind where Kittle was standing. To recover the Super Bowl fumble, Karlaftis defeated three 49ers to the ball. Right before everyone dove for the loose ball, Kittle can be heard saying 'Hey George!' When blocking him, Karlaftis is blocked.

Henderson, Nevada, is home to many residents, according to the city's slogan, 'A Place To Call Home.' That's just what the San Francisco 49ers and the defending champion Kansas City Chiefs will be calling it until Sunday's Super Bowl, which will be played 32 miles west in a town with a decidedly different tag: "What Happens In Vegas Stays In Vegas." But even if the overused, misleading statement was true, it loses all significance this week as hundreds of thousands of thousands of iPhone-phone-carrying Chiefs and Niners fans descend on Sin City with the intention of becoming their favorite players. Quite simply, what happens in Sin City this week could determine the rest of these players and coaches' professional lives.

On Sunday, Kansas City defensive end Charles Omenihu suffered a torn ACL and will miss Super Bowl LVIII. Omenihu made a vital strip-sack of Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson after a high-scoring start to the AFC Championship Game that saw the Chiefs top 14-7, according to teammate George Karlaftis. Omenihu retired from the game to have his right knee checked for an injury, while his teammates carried on to win by 17-7.

After Kansas City defeated the Baltimore Ravens 17-10 in the AFC Championship, Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones earned an additional $1 million due to an honor in his deal. His base salary for the season had already hit the $19.5 million mark, much less than the $1 million he was fined for missing Week 1 against the Miami Dolphins due to a labor lockout. Thanks to the Chiefs' success in the Super Bowl, Jones will now have the opportunity to cap off another good season by winning his third Lombardi Trophy.
