Kelce wasn't the only notable athlete involved with the collaboration's release; several stars from across the sports world were enlisted to be part of the campaign. Six athletes are featured in the collection's unveiling: UConn guard Azzi Fudd, Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, Penn State quarterback Drew Allar, Olympic gymnast Suni Lee, Syracuse guard Kiyan Anthony and 17-year-old tennis player Anna Frey.
Ajay Anand, the CEO and founder of diamond retailer Rare Carat, told Business Insider that the jewelry's value is likely somewhere in the $1 million range. "The ring appears to feature an antique old mine brilliant-cut diamond," Anand said, noting that the style was popular in the 18th and 19th centuries due to its "chunky facets and romantic sparkle." Rolling Stone reported that Kindred Lubeck of Artifex Fine Jewelry designed the piece.
