The Kansas City Chiefs have some legit superstars on their team, on and off the field. Of course, everyone knows Patrick Mahomes, the three-time MVP, three-time Super Bowl MVP, and three-time Super Bowl winner. But after the last year, the entire world was opened up to his tight end, Travis Kelce, a bit more.
Football fans already knew Kelce, as he is one of the greatest players ever to play the sport and, in many regards, the greatest player ever to play the position. However, the 2023 season brought a whole new audience to the game by way of his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
Now, I'm not saying that has opened up new opportunities for him, as he was already famous enough, but I won't say it hasn't benefited him being with the most popular woman in the United States. He was on TV shows like Saturday Night Live before he was publicly with Swift, and now he will be on another. Well, there is a possibility he could be.
According to Variety, Kelce is in talks to host the new spin-off of the hit TV show of old Are You Smarter Than A Fifth-Grader.

Travis would be a good host; however, I have an idea for a better host. His brother, Jason Kelce, would be better for a few reasons. First, Jason is a bit more reserved and does not curse as much because he does have children. And remember, this show has kids on it. This show has fifth-grade kids on it. That's not me saying Jason or Travis are bad dudes because they aren't.
The other reason is that there have been rumors of Travis being close to retirement and that he would love to get into TV after his career is done. He has already said he isn't retiring this offseason because he wants to go for the three-peat, but who is to say he won't retire after next season, whether they win or lose?
This means that Kelce could be getting close to the one fear that has all Chiefs fans worried.
