Travis Kelce gifted former NFL player and close friend Beau Allen a designer t-shirt worth $11,900 on Sunday with the permission of his girlfriend Taylor Swift.
But Allen has since admitted he was “disappointed” that the gift fell into place, because it means he has now lost the hulking figure he cut during his football career.
Kelce walked into Arrowhead Stadium on Saturday wearing a pink suede Bottega Venetta leather button-down shirt before the Kansas City Chiefs' divisional-round victory over the Houston Texans.
The fashion-conscious NFL star wore it over a white T-shirt and paired it with navy and white knit cargo pants with a $96 beanie and Timberlands.
Swift, who wore a $16,500 Chanel ensemble to the game, and her family flew in from New York to the game to support Kelce and sat in her luxury suite with her family and the sensation of WNBA, Caitlin Clark.
Allen, a former teammate of Kelce's brother Jason and a guest on his New Heights podcast, revealed this week that he complimented Travis' jersey at the game and was lucky enough to keep it afterward.

Kelce gave the shirt to his friend Beau Allen, who said he was “disappointed” because it actually fit him.
“He just gave it to me, so it's pretty clever,” Allen said on the Green Light podcast with Chris Long.
“I was like, 'I don't think it'll fit me,' and Taylor said, 'Yeah, it'll definitely fit me.' “Put it on.”
Kelce told Allen he could keep the jersey “if it fit” because he would “never wear it again” after just one outing.
When it fit, Allen admitted he was “a little disappointed,” adding, “I used to be a big boy and now I wear the same clothes as him.”
Swift seemed keen to shake off any accusations that she is a “distraction” to Kelce and returned to New York a little more than 24 hours after their close win against the Houston Texans.
The tight end was hit with an avalanche of criticism after his slow start to the season, and many pundits were quick to blame his off-season partying with Swift.
The 35-year-old men quickly spent every moment together during the summer months, and he followed her around the world during her Eras Tour.
But the Grammy hitmaker now appears more conscious than ever about allowing her tight end boyfriend to fully concentrate on their upcoming AFC clash against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. Victory would return Kelce and the Chiefs to the Super Bowl once again.

She will likely return to Arrowhead Stadium to support him in the game, but quickly returned to New York on Monday after spending just one day with Kelce.
DailyMail.com photographed Swift and her entourage leaving a private airport in New Jersey on Monday afternoon, before returning to her Manhattan apartment.
Insiders claim Swift and Kelce managed to spend a few hours alone together while their private jet took her parents, Scott and Andrea, back to Nashville.
Stephen A. Smith claimed Tuesday that Swift's association with the Chiefs may be influencing NFL referees on the field after another controversial call in the win over the Texans.
