Travis Kelce talks about his secrets to a successful NFL career
During GQ’s 10 Essential segment, Travis Kelce listed items that come to his everyday use, which include his socks, toiletry bag, hats, chain, AirPods, and others. One of the items he mentioned was his iPad, which he believes is his “most-needed” essential.
He admits that he uses the tablet for watching shows and surfing the web, just like everyone else. But he also uses his iPad productively to analyze every single game of his career. “I go everywhere with this, obviously—just for shows, surfing the web, and being entertained. That’s one thing, but I can get to every single game, every single film of practice, every single clip of my entire career right here in this guy.”
It helps him in improving his skills and avoiding mistakes in future games. Explaining why the gadget is important to him, he said, ” It’s essential to me because it’s my work, it’s my duty. I like to, in the middle of the day, if I’m thinking of something that happened last season or thinking of something I can improve on, you always have your study guide with you everywhere you go. It really helps me be the professional that I am.”
In an interview with GQ, Kelce admitted that his performance has not been up to the mark for the past two seasons, as he ventured out into other endeavors. He said, “I think it might have slipped a little bit because I did have a little bit more focus in trying to set myself up. And opportunities came up where I was excited to venture into a new world of acting and being an entertainer.”
While he doesn’t regret exploring new projects, he accepts that his performance wasn’t up to his standard and remains determined to come back stronger for his team.
