Travis Michael Kelce (/ˈkɛlsi/;[5] born October 5, 1989) is an American football tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs of the National Football League (NFL). He was drafted by the Chiefs in the third round of the 2013 NFL Draft and later won Super Bowls LIV and LVII with the team, recording a touchdown reception in both wins. He played college football at Cincinnati.

Considered to be one of the greatest tight ends of all time,[6][7] Kelce is an eight-time Pro Bowler and a four-time first-team All-Pro selection. He holds the NFL record for most consecutive and most overall seasons with 1,000 yards receiving by a tight end with 7.[1] He also owns the record for most receiving yards by a tight end in a single season with 1,416 in 2020, despite playing in only 15 games.[3][2] He also briefly held the single season record in 2018 before it was broken later that same day. During the 2022 season, Kelce became the fastest tight end to reach 10,000 career receiving yards, and he became the fifth tight end in NFL history to reach the milestone.[1] Kelce was named to the NFL 2010s All-Decade Team.[8][9]

Early life

Kelce was born on October 5, 1989, in Westlake, Ohio, the son of Ed and Donna Kelce and younger brother to fellow NFL player Jason Kelce, who is a center for the Philadelphia Eagles. He attended Cleveland Heights High School in his hometown of Cleveland Heights, Ohio, where he was a three-sport athlete in football, basketball and baseball.[10] Excelling at football, he was a three-year letter winner as quarterback for the Tigers, and recognized with All-Lake Erie League honors after totaling 2,539 yards of total offense as a senior.[11] He ran 1,016 rushing yards and 10 rushing touchdowns, threw for 1,523 passing yards, 21 touchdowns, and eight interceptions in 2007.[12]

College career

Considered a two-star recruit by Rivals.com, Kelce accepted a scholarship offer from the University of Cincinnati over offers from Akron, Eastern Michigan, and Miami (OH).[13] He joined his brother, Jason Kelce, who was the starting left guard for the Bearcats. After redshirting in 2008, he appeared in 11 games, playing at tight end and quarterback out of the Wildcat formation. He tallied eight rushes for 47 yards and two touchdowns along with one reception for three yards in 2009.[14] The following season, he did not play due to a violation of team rules, which was later revealed to be failing a drug test by testing positive for marijuana.[15][16] After serving a one-year suspension, Kelce was back with the team to start the 2011 season. For the season, he saw action in games as a tight end and recorded 13 catches totaling 150 yards and two touchdowns.[17] In his last collegiate season, he set personal career highs in receptions (45), receiving yards (722), yards per receptions (16.0), and receiving touchdowns (8), he also earned first-team all-conference honors.[18] In March 2013, Kelce was named winner of the College Football Performance Awards Tight End of the Year.[19]

Personal life

Kelce is the younger brother of Jason Kelce, a center for the Philadelphia Eagles.[138]

In 2015, Kelce started the Eighty-Seven & Running foundation to give mentoring, training, motivation, and opportunities to underprivileged youth.[139]

In May 2017, Kelce was confirmed to be in a relationship with social media influencer Kayla Nicole.[140][141] Travis and Kayla later broke up in May 2022.[142]

"Fight for Your Right"

Through his Super Bowl runs with the Chiefs, Kelce became known for reciting the chorus from the Beastie Boys' 1986 song "(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party!)" during team celebrations, first after the 2019 AFC Championship Game then again at the parade in Kansas City after clinching Super Bowl LIV. The Chiefs responded by making "Fight for Your Right" its touchdown song during games at Arrowhead Stadium.[143][144] Kelce would continue the practice with the Chiefs' second championship in four years, adding a live performance of the song with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show.[145]

Television appearances

In January 2016, Kelce starred in the E! Entertainment Television dating show Catching Kelce.[146] The winner picked by Kelce was Maya Benberry, and they started dating after the show ended in April 2016.[147] In January 2017, Benberry confirmed that they had broken up.[148]

Kelce was the host of Saturday Night Live on March 4, 2023.[149] His brother Jason also made an appearance on that episode with their parents as audience members, and he also was in a sketch with Travis and SNL cast members Heidi Gardner and Chloe Fineman.[150][151]

Last name pronunciation

During the 2021 offseason, Kelce said he pronounces his last name /ˈkɛlsi/ KEL-see, because that is the way his father pronounces it, although the rest of the paternal side of his family pronounces it /kɛls/ KELSS.[5] Kelce's brother, Jason, later elaborated that their father "at some point ... got tired of correcting everyone calling him 'Kell-see.' ... And now I think we're both at the point where we're riding with Ed 'Kell-see.'"[152]
