Trey Smith
recently lifted the curtain on what it's really like to be teammates with Travis Kelce—and the story is as chaotic as it is heartwarming. Speaking on the New Heights podcast hosted by Jason and
Travis Kelce
, Smith recalled the first time he encountered the star tight end during offseason workouts.
Trey Smith opens up about Travis Kelce's wild energy and surprising kindness
'Just crazy energy,' Trey Smith said when asked about his first impression of Travis Kelce. 'I was like, 'Oh, he's awful—I love this guy.'' The moment set the tone for a relationship built on fierce competition and genuine brotherhood, one that Smith said helped define his rookie year. 'I tackled you, slapping your helmet in the end zone 'cause you're just psycho, bro,' Smith joked, referencing a game where Kelce scored twice and hyped up the team with his trademark enthusiasm.
While the intensity is real, so is the compassion. Smith, a sixth-round draft pick in 2021, recalled how Kelce went out of his way to make him feel welcome. 'The one thing I can speak about—especially as like a sixth-round draft pick, young guy—was just how kind you were, bro,' he said. 'And you don't have to be that way. And how you really care for people, and you're not afraid to give out your heart, right?'
That humility and emotional generosity, Smith said, meant the world.
'You never mistreated me or just sort of wrote me off… it was always just like that for years, man.'
Kelce, clearly touched by the comments, responded, 'I appreciate it, dog. Means the most coming from you, brother.'

Adding a twist of nostalgia and humor to the conversation, Kelce recalled a painful college memory involving Smith's alma mater, the Tennessee Volunteers. 'We got smoked when I was in college playing Tennessee.
Tyler Bray and Cordarrelle Patterson — they got after us a little bit,' he said, pointing to a 2011 beatdown he endured while playing for Cincinnati.
Despite the loss, Kelce admitted he respects the football culture in Knoxville, saying, 'The entire city is orange—like everything in sight is orange.' This brotherhood between Kelce and Smith proves that even the fiercest competitors can lead with heart—and a little chaos.

103* off 52 balls: Next Rishabh Pant? India U19 wicketkeeper-batter Harvansh Singh thrashes England
Harvansh Singh with his father. (Image: Special Arrangement) India U-19 wicketkeeper-batter Harvansh Singh Pangalia on Tuesday scored an whirlwind century in a warm-up match against England U-19. Walking in at 251/7 during the 36th over, Harvansh Singh Pangalia joined RS Ambrish at the crease and the duo stitched together a valuable 126-run partnership. Ambrish took the lead during this stand, making a fluent 72 off 47 balls before being dismissed. At that point, Pangalia had already reached 47 off 33 balls and promptly brought up his half-century with a boundary on the next delivery. Pangalia unleashed a stunning assault in the final three overs. He launched the 48th over with back-to-back sixes off Manny Lumsden, who then bowled two no-balls consecutively. The next over saw another six off Matthew Firbank, but the fireworks truly exploded in the last over. Pangalia smashed Lumsden for a four, followed by three towering sixes—his final maximum bringing up a brilliant century off just 52 deliveries. Notably, his second fifty came at lightning speed, taking only 18 balls. 07:08 Watching Test cricket in England: Ticket prices, food options, museum and all about Headingley By the end of the innings, India had piled up a mammoth 442/9. Pangalia finished unbeaten, having struck nine sixes. The young wicketkeeper-batter, who plays for Saurashtra's youth team, had previously turned heads with a similarly aggressive 117 against Australia in a Youth Test last October, where he hit seven boundaries and six sixes. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Brass Krishna Idols For Prosperity & Protection In Life Luxeartisanship Shop Now Undo Who is Harvansh? India U-19 wicketkeeper-batter Harvansh Singh hails from Gandhidham, a small town in Gujarat's Rann of Kutch. Growing up, he saw his father, Damandeep Singh, and uncle, Kunwarajeet Singh, who played cricket in their town, and interestingly, both of them were wicketkeepers. Now, Harvansh's family is settled in Canada. His father drives a truck in Brampton. Harvansh lives in Gandhidham with his mother and has made a promise to his father that one day he will get them back to India. Damandeep never thought a video of Yuvraj Singh 's six sixes would make his son so obsessed with the game that he would take a vow to represent his country. "Even Rajkot is 200 km away from our city. It was only in 2012 when the Saurashtra Cricket Association (SCA) opened an academy in our town. I enrolled Harvansh in it when he was six. He picked up keeping from me, as I used to don the gloves as well. But he turned southpaw because of Yuvraj Singh. He's a massive Yuvraj fan and hasn't even seen peak Yuvraj, but he was obsessed with the video of him hitting six sixes off Stuart Broad," Damandeep had told in an interview.

ASTRO's Cha Eun Woo stuns in Paris with ‘manhwa lead' visuals, gives nod to military enlistment with emotional ‘Last Farewell' post
If you've spent any time on the K-drama or K-pop side of the internet lately, there's no way you missed Cha Eun Woo looking absolutely unreal at the Saint Laurent Men's 2026 S/S Collection show in Paris. The ASTRO member and K-drama heartthrob had cameras flashing nonstop, with fans joking that even Getty Images couldn't catch a bad angle. But while he delivered flawless visuals (as always), he also slipped in a subtle mention of something more emotional. In his latest Instagram post, he subtly referenced his upcoming military enlistment. And just like that, fans went from awe to heartbreak. Cha Eun Woo wears a fall in 30°C heat and still outdresses Paris Cha Eun Woo once again reminded everyone why he's in a league of his own as he stepped out for the Saint Laurent Men's 2026 S/S Collection show in Paris, France. While the Paris summer heat hit 30°C (86°F), most attendees kept things breezy in short sleeves and light fabrics. But not Cha Eun Woo. Dressed in an olive turtleneck, a checkered wool jacket, and black leather pants, he looked like he'd walked straight off a fashion editorial, looking completely unfazed by the weather. The fall-inspired look shouldn't have worked in that heat, but somehow, on him, it made perfect sense. And it wasn't just the outfit. Full-body shots of the ASTRO member quickly made the rounds online, with fans pointing out his unreal proportions, how effortlessly he carries himself, and that he looks straight out of a manhwa. Many agreed that no matter the angle, lighting, or setting, Cha Eun Woo continues to prove why he's considered one of the most visually striking stars in the industry. 📽️ Cha Eunwoo at the Saint Laurent Men Summer 26 show, via Men's UnoCHA EUNWOO FOR SAINT LAURENT SS26#CHAEUNWOO #SaintLaurent#SaintLaurentSS26XChaEunwoo But then came the military enlistment nod Just hours after turning heads on the streets of Paris, Cha Eun Woo treated fans to a more laid-back side of his trip by sharing a few snaps from his downtime.

But before he steps away from the spotlight, he's giving fans one last chance to see him up close. He'll be holding a solo fan meeting titled 'THE ROYAL' on July 12 at Kyung Hee University's Peace Hall, a fitting send-off for someone who's always had a special connection with his fans.
