Travis Kelce’s recent weight loss has fans buzzing with speculations. The NFL star showed off a slimmer look at a recent event in New York City, leading many to think Taylor Swift might be the reason behind the change. Now, many are curious about what happened.
Taylor Swift fans credit her for Travis Kelce’s weight loss
Recently, Travis Kelce revealed a noticeable weight loss during his appearance at the Amazon MGM Studios Upfront in New York City on May 12. As he prepares to enter his 13th NFL season, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end disclosed that he lost 25 pounds during the offseason in an effort to improve his fitness. However, he didn’t go into detail about how he lost the weight.
Kelce’s transformation follows a disappointing end to the 2024 NFL season. Despite the Chiefs making it to the Super Bowl finale for the third consecutive year, they ultimately fell short of winning a third-straight title. For Kelce, the season was particularly disappointing from a personal performance standpoint. He ended the season with 823 receiving yards and three touchdowns. This is his lowest stats since entering the league in 2014.
Despite the dip in performance, Kelce remains a fan favorite in the NFL. He continues to enjoy strong support from fans who remain optimistic that 2025 will see a comeback of the tight end. One user wrote, “He looks like he did when he started in the NFL! [Good] for him to be proactive to the upcoming NFL season! He will probably get faster off of the snap of he ball! Thank you big boy for thinking about next year.”
Some fans also believe that Taylor Swift, Kelce’s girlfriend, might be the reason behind his weight loss. One user commented, “He’s probably going vegan with swiftie.”
Earlier this year, Kelce spoke about his history with weight during a lighthearted conversation on the New Heights podcast. In March, actor Ben Stiller joined the show and brought up his 1995 movie Heavyweights, sparking a conversation about body image. Jason Kelce responded that Travis was “chubby.” Laughing, Travis Kelce said, “I think I was dealing with my love for honey buns.”
