Travis Kelce named victim in fraud scheme; Siddharth Jawahar sentenced

Travis Kelce, tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, was identified as a victim in a multi-million-dollar Ponzi scheme tied to Siddharth Jawahar. On September 15, 2026, Jawahar received an 11-year sentence in Missouri after misappropriating over $35 million from investors to support his lavish lifestyle. This case stems from an investment fund co-founded by Jawahar, where Kelce was briefly mentioned during the proceedings. Jawahar pleaded guilty to wire fraud charges earlier this year. He is also required to pay over $31 million in restitution to his victims.
