The surprising reason Travis Kelce is still in L.A. has nothing to do with Taylor Swift

Travis Kelce’s extended stay in Los Angeles is attributed to his filming commitments for the upcoming ‘Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?’ reboot, as reported by People magazine. The Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end has allocated part of his offseason to this new project.

In this revamped version titled ‘Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?’, notable figures from the entertainment world will replace children from the original show. The series is set to premiere on Prime Video.

Kelce’s foray into entertainment marks another milestone in his evolving career, further solidifying his status as a superstar in the entertainment industry. His podcast with brother Jason Kelce has gained immense popularity among NFL fans.

Additionally, he is hosting the Kelce Jam for the second consecutive year, attracting prominent names to Kansas City for their Super Bowl festivities.

Furthermore, Kelce’s high-profile relationship with Taylor Swift, a prominent figure in entertainment, has kept him in the public eye. With his brother’s retirement, new relationship, and changing circumstances, Kelce appears to have ample opportunities awaiting him beyond football.

Is Kelce nearing retirement?

Last season, Kelce openly discussed the physical toll of football and the sacrifices he’s made for peak performance. Despite ruling out retirement talks at the time, it suggests that his post-football future may arrive sooner than expected.

Kelce mentioned using the offseason to explore interests beyond football, citing his appearance on Saturday Night Live as sparking a desire to pursue camera work.

It now appears that Kelce is actively preparing for a post-football career in entertainment. Given his athletic prowess and personal fame, he is poised to garner significant attention in the industry.

However, Kelce will return to Kansas City from Los Angeles to pursue a third consecutive Super Bowl victory with the Chiefs. Such a feat would solidify their dynasty status as one of the greatest in NFL history.

When Kelce ultimately writes the next chapter of his life beyond the gridiron, it’s clear that Hollywood will eagerly welcome him into its fold.
