Travis Kelce
is back in the news again—only this time, it's for his new physique, not his touchdown total. Three months following a disappointing Super Bowl 2025 loss and with talk of his NFL future, Travis Kelce made an appearance at a public event in New York City, appearing considerably leaner and more driven.
Following Super Bowl disappointment, Travis Kelce redirects energies to
fitness
and unfinished business
Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce appears leaner and rejuvenated as he vows to make a comeback season after a devastating Super Bowl loss. The 10-time Pro Bowler made an appearance at the Amazon Upfront Presentation at the Beacon Theatre, presented by MGM Studios, where he and his brother and co-host of his podcast, former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, took the stage. Based on fan reports and stories shared on X (formerly Twitter), Travis Kelce is said to be down 25 pounds from his typical listed playing weight of 250 pounds—leaving him in the ballpark of 225.
Despite a difficult postseason and a Super Bowl blowout 40-22 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, Travis Kelce is not quite ready to retire his cleats yet. In a text to ESPN analyst Pat McAfee earlier this year, Kelce confirmed he would be back for a 13th NFL season, writing that he was 'coming back for sure' and looking to be in better shape than ever.
'I'm coming back for sure. Gonna try to get into the best shape I've been this offseason and get back to the mountaintop,' Kelce said to McAfee.

'Got a real bad taste in my mouth with how I played in that last game and with how I got the guys ready for battle. I can't go out like that!!!!' If this really becomes Kelce's final season, he's looking to go out on top.'
Last year was Kelce's least productive since 2015, with 97 receptions, 823 yards, and only three touchdowns. But the veteran tight end seems determined to change that, spending this offseason in training and rehab—some of which has contributed to his new, leaner physique.
While Kelce has kept a mostly low-key public life since February, he still co-hosts the hit New Heights podcast with Jason Kelce. In non-sports circles, his romance with pop star
Taylor Swift
keeps enthusiasts abuzz as well. The two, who started dating in 2023, were seen recently enjoying an intimate Mother's Day lunch in Philadelphia—a first public appearance together in months.

With rumors of the offseason in his rearview and a reenergized attitude, Travis Kelce appears more intent than ever. Whether 2025 is the start of his last chapter or just the next, he's committed to going out on his own terms—strong, keen, and hungry to redeem himself.

Ravens' Marlon Humphrey posts sentimental tweet on Justin Tucker amid sexual misconduct allegations
Marlon Humphrey's tweet on Justin Tucker's release sparks backlash (Image via: Getty Images) For the first time in over a decade, the Baltimore Ravens are moving on without Justin Tucker but not because of age or decline. The star kicker was released amid sexual misconduct allegations. The news rocked the NFL, but it was Marlon Humphrey's emotional tweet about Tucker that truly lit up social media and sparked immediate backlash. Humphrey's sentimental tweet collides with Tucker's scandal Justin Tucker's release from the Baltimore Ravens marks the abrupt end of a legendary career, one now clouded by serious allegations. The 34-year-old kicker, often labeled the most accurate in NFL history, was let go as the league investigates sexual misconduct claims brought against him. While Tucker has denied the allegations, the Ravens made the difficult choice to move on. Head coach John Harbaugh addressed the situation by calling it 'multi-layered' and 'complicated,' emphasizing the team's responsibility to prepare for the new season. But it was cornerback Marlon Humphrey's personal response that lit a firestorm online. Shortly after Tucker's release, Humphrey posted: 'imma miss Tucker lowkey. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Advanced Strategic Management IIMK ASMP Apply Now Undo Team meetings won't be the same.' While some viewed it as a heartfelt goodbye to a longtime teammate, many fans weren't having it. Replies poured in, labeling the tweet as poorly timed and tone-deaf, given the ongoing sexual misconduct investigation. One user bluntly responded, 'You gotta chill,' while another added, 'Bad tweet unc.' The backlash highlighted the growing tension between team loyalty and public accountability. For some, Humphrey's tweet symbolized the emotional toll of losing a locker room leader. For others, it was a glaring misstep that overlooked the severity of the allegations facing Tucker. W ith Tucker gone, the Ravens are now leaning on a kicking competition between rookie Tyler Loop and undrafted free agent John Hoyland. But filling Tucker's shoes on the field might be easier than replacing his presence off of it. This controversy reveals a deeper issue within professional sports: how players, teams, and fans navigate loyalty in the face of disturbing off-field accusations. The Ravens are trying to move forward, but the emotional and cultural fallout of Tucker's release is far from over. Also Read: Detroit Lions ready to battle NFL's toughest 2025 schedule under Dan Campbell's leadership for NFC North championship As the NFL's investigation progresses, this isn't just about football stats or replacing a kicker. It's about trust, perception, and how quickly a celebrated legacy can unravel under the weight of serious allegations.
