Football is back in Kansas City, and the Chiefs open their 2026 Training Camp at Missouri Western State University in St. Joseph, Missouri, the team's longtime summer home on the Mosaic Training Fields. Most practices are free and open to the public, with autograph windows built into every session, so it is one of the best chances all year to see the reigning AFC power up close. And if you want to deck out your fan cave for the season, we build handcrafted plaques for every star on this roster, real licensed cards under glass on solid wood.
Our 12x15 Patrick Mahomes plaque, eight real cards on solid wood: the centerpiece of any Chiefs fan cave.

Who to watch, and how to put them on your wall
This is a roster built to chase another ring, with the same championship core still driving it. Every plaque below is solid wood with an engraved nameplate and real, licensed trading cards under a clear acrylic cover.
Patrick Mahomes, QB
The two-time MVP and heartbeat of the franchise is still the best reason to make the drive to St. Joseph. No Chiefs fan cave is complete without him on the wall.
- 4x6 single-card plaque, $14
- 6x8 two-card plaque, $18
- 8x10 three-card plaque, $29
- 12x15 eight-card plaque, $52
Travis Kelce, TE
Still Mahomes' security blanket and one of the most decorated tight ends the game has ever seen. Camp is where the connection gets tuned up all over again.
- 4x6 single-card plaque, $14
- 6x8 two-card plaque, $18
- 8x10 three-card plaque, $26
- 12x15 eight-card plaque, $52
Chris Jones, DT
The engine of the defense and one of the most disruptive interior linemen in football. When he is right, the whole front follows, and he anchors the trench work you will see get sharpened in St. Joseph.
The whole core on one plaque
Want Mahomes, Kelce, and Jones together? Our 2026 Chiefs Stars plaque puts all three of the current cornerstones on a single 8x10 with three real cards, the easiest way to hang the heart of this team in one frame.
Prefer the cards themselves? Grab a team set
If you would rather hold the cards than hang them, a hand-collated team set is the move. Real licensed cards of the whole roster in one pack, perfect for the collector or the kid just getting into the hobby.

Gear up for the season
Camp is the first sign that Sundays at Arrowhead are almost back. Whether you are heading to St. Joseph or just getting the fan cave ready, a plaque turns your favorite Chief into a piece of wall art that lasts a lot longer than the season. The exact card may vary slightly from the one pictured, and you will always get a genuine licensed card of the player.
