Travis Kelce

Travis Kelce (born October 5, 1989) is a star tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, who drafted him in 2013, and he has since become one of the greatest players at his position in NFL history. He holds the league record for the most consecutive (and overall) seasons with 1,000 receiving yards by a tight end (seven), and his 1,416 receiving yards in 2020 remain the single-season record for a tight end. During the 2023 season, he surpassed the legendary Jerry Rice in career playoff receptions while helping the Chiefs win their third Super Bowl in his fourth appearance in five years. Off the field, Kelce is a cultural icon: he co-owns the beer brand Garage Beer, hosts the popular New Heights podcast with his brother Jason (a former NFL center for the Philadelphia Eagles), and has hosted Saturday Night Live and starred in his own dating show, Catching Kelce (2016). A native of Ohio, he played college football at Cincinnati (where he overcame a 2010 suspension for a failed drug test) and graduated with a degree in 2022, adding to his notable success both on and off the gridiron.
