On the other hand, Kelce's number 87 Chiefs jersey saw a whopping 400 percent increase on Sunday, or five times more than usual, according to sports apparel and gear retailer Fanatics, the league's official merchandise partner.
The massive sales spike enabled the tight end's threads to be among the top five best-selling NFL jerseys.
The 33-year-old's jersey was not even among the top 10 best-selling jerseys around the league in their latest list released last August, while his older brother Jason, a center for the Philadelphia Eagles, was ranked fifth.
