The two have met in the Super Bowl twice, with Kelce and the Chiefs walking away with both wins. But Kelce and Kittle put their differences aside for at least a few days for their annual Tight End University (TEU).
TEU, founded in 2021 by Travis Kelce, George Kittle and Greg Olsen, is an annual offseason program that brings together the NFL's top tight ends for training and mentorship. Held each summer at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, this year's event will run from Monday through Thursday.
On Monday, the NFL posted a new photo of Kelce at this year's event. He is joined by Kittle, Olsen, former New York Giants tight end Jeremy Shockey and the Las Vegas Raiders' Brock Bowers. Each star is wearing TEU gear as well.
"Past and present in the building for TEU," the NFL wrote on X.
While some NFL fans enjoyed the gathering of great tight ends, others noticed the appearance of Kelce and Kittle. They took to social media to leave their thoughts.

"The difference in kittle and kelces physique," one fan said.
"Kelce's arm compared to the Kittle and Bowers," added another.
"George has been in the weight room this summer," wrote a third.
"Damn Kittle is looking jacked! I can't wait to see some of his pancake blocks this year!" commented a fourth.
"Kittle jacked up for another 2 catches, 4 yards in the Super Bowl?" joked a fifth.
"love how the best TE ever is wearing black," wrote a sixth.

Among other notable attendees at the 2025 TEU are Jake Ferguson of the Dallas Cowboys, T.J. Hockenson of the Minnesota Vikings and Dallas Goedert of the Philadelphia Eagles. But numerous other positional players, such as Dak Prescott, have made an appearance at TEU in the past.

Only one Tennessee Titans player is set to attend the 2025 Tight End University
While many Tennessee Titans are busy working out on their own in preparation for training camp, word came out on Monday that one of their rookies was invited to take part in some special training activities. Rookie tight end Gunnar Helm was invited and will attend the 2025 Tight End University. The three-day event, founded by tight ends George Kittle, Travis Kelce, and Greg Olsen in 2021, brings together different members of the tight end fraternity for an immersive training summit that focuses on every aspect of the tight end position. For Helm, this period should help him as he transitions into the NFL after a successful college career. During the camp, players will not only have the opportunity to get to know each other, but they will also participate in film study sessions, on-field drills, and off-field bonding activities. Not to mention being able to pick the brains of some of the retired legends that helped shape the position into what it is today. Helm is one of the tight ends who will be in attendance, and the only member of the Titans' tight end room who will be there this season. This breaks a two-year streak made by starter Chig Okonkwo, who had attended the events before the 2023 and 2024 seasons.

Stunning Tommy Fleetwood stat makes Travelers loss even worse
The post Stunning Tommy Fleetwood stat makes Travelers loss even worse appeared first on ClutchPoints. Tommy Fleetwood stepped onto the 18th tee at the Travelers Championship with a one-shot lead over Keegan Bradley. With no wins in his 158 PGA Tour starts entering the week, it looked like the Englishman was going to get the monkey off his back. But a phenomenal shot from Bradley and a brutal three-putt from Fleetwood changed everything. After his Travelers loss, Fleetwood made some brutal history. Advertisement 'Tommy Fleetwood: 42nd top-10 finish on PGA Tour; most by any player without a win last 40 years,' Justin Ray of the TwentyFirst Group posted on social media. Fleetwood changed his club before hitting his approach on the 18th hole. That classic sign of overthinking was all Bradley needed to see to pounce on his competitor. The Ryder Cup captain stuck his approach to less than six feet and put all of the pressure on Fleetwood. His first putt was just outside of Bradley's approach, giving his competitor a perfect read. When Fleetwood missed the second putt, Bradley kicked the door down. From a three-shot lead to losing in regulation, it was over for Fleetwood. In his long PGA Tour career, Fleetwood has lost in playoffs, blown leads early in rounds, and now suffered from a brutal 72nd hole collapse. When speaking with the media afterward, he explained his feelings after the loss. 'I'm upset now, I'm angry,' Fleetwood said, per the PGA Tour's social media page. 'When it calms down, look at the things I did well and look at the things I can learn from…[I] felt like I did a lot of good things, but there are things I can definitely do better and have to do better.' Advertisement Just last week, Fleetwood missed the cut at the US Open. While this is a marked improvement from that tough result, he does not get that elusive win on American soil. Bradley, meanwhile, picks up his second Travelers win in three years.

Sam Reinhart wasn't at the Panthers' first parade. He lived it up this time
Sam Reinhart made his way to the stage on Fort Lauderdale Beach on top of Brad Marchand's shoulders, pumping his fist and firing up a crowd of more than 200,000 Florida Panthers fans on Sunday afternoon. It was a moment long in the making. Advertisement Reinhart didn't take part in the Panthers' championship parade last year when they won the Stanley Cup for the first time in franchise history because he had to attend his best friend's wedding that day. 'Obviously you'd love to be there for the parade and to celebrate with the fans,' Reinhart, who scored the game-winning goal in Game 7 of the 2024 Stanley Cup Final to secure the championship, said at the start of training camp. 'Certainly there's some FOMO [fear of missing out] there, but I made the right decision. I know that. Hopefully, it's something we can build towards again and I'll be there for the next one.' Fast forward one year, and here the Panthers are again on Fort Lauderdale Beach after winning a second consecutive Stanley Cup — something only six other teams have accomplished in the expansion era (since the 1967-68 season). And this time, Reinhart was there to enjoy in the festivities. Florida Panthers forward Sam Reinhart makes his way to the stage on forward Brad Marchand's shoulders during the team's Stanley Cup championship celebration parade on Sunday, June 22, 2025, at Fort Lauderdale Beach, Florida. After entering on Marchand's shoulders, he took the mic from captain Aleksander Barkov as a few notable plays from his Stanley Cup playoff run — including his first of four goals in the Cup-clinching Game 6 of the Cup Final against Edmonton — played on screen. Advertisement 'The only thing I've heard all day is how this is the best parade that's ever happened in South Florida,' Reinhart said. 'Thank God I missed last year and not this year.' Reinhart then channeled in inner DJ Khaled for the rest of his speech. 'We the best! And I mean that!' said Reinhart, who led the Panthers with 39 goals and 81 points in the regular season, tied for the team lead with 23 points (11 goals, 12 assists in the playoffs) and finished runner-up to Barkov for the Selke Trophy given annually to the NHL's best defensive forward. 'Another one!' Florida Panthers center Sam Reinhart kisses Matthew Tkachuk's ring during the Florida Panthers Stanley Cup Championship victory parade on Sunday, June 22, 2025 down Las Olas in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. It capped a wild week that saw Reinhart unleash his wild side. Advertisement His peak moments came Thursday night into Friday morning when the team went to E11even, a worldwide known nightclub in Miami. Reinhart climbed a stripper pole to grab a signed Barkov jersey from the a trapeze bar hanging from the rafters to chants of his nickname, 'Reino! Reino!' Later in the night, Reinhart was seen with forward Evan Rodrigues pouring shots down people's throats and even handing out full bottles. 'Reino's had a couple legendary moments so far,' Marchand said. Added coach Paul Maurice on Saturday: 'I would think any celebration and anything that he would enjoy like that would be strictly for the other players, the laughter amongst them, right? Sam's not trying to build a brand here, but he has one in our room. He's got a great sense of humor. He's very, very bright. Really well spoken. Understands the game at a high level. He understands the game completely differently and on a higher level than I do because he's a player. He's a quiet man, but he has a voice. When you need it, he will say something on the bench. He has a great sense of when they need him to speak and he has that time.'
