Kelce Body-Shame Photo Going Viral
Over the last few years, Travis Kelce has drifted further and further into celebrity status outside of his Hall-of-Fame football career as tight end of the Kansas City Chiefs.
Whether Taylor Swift or his top-of-the-charts podcast has something to do with that, you can be the judge.

But what comes with being a pop culture icon? Getting roasted online for every casual outfit the paparazzi catches you in.
Kelce has fallen victim, and NFL fans are now questioning if he has gained weight. A photo is going viral online of Travis wearing a white oversized sweater ... that gives off an unflattering shadow.
Popular troll account "Dov Kleiman" claims the shadow around Kelce's stomach is a clear indication of "serious" weight gain during this offseason.
Some rumors like this stem from Kelce reportedly questioning retirement during Kansas City's run to the Super Bowl last postseason. Even after the Chief's ugly loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, Kelce confirmed he will continue playing.

"I think the biggest thing is that I love playing the game of football," Kelce said earlier this offseason. "I love playing. I still feel like I can play it at a high level and possibly at a higher level than I did last year."
With what he said after the loss, we take it that he is motivated for the 2025 season and will do everything it takes to be prepared for training camp.
Plus, the veteran tight end has plenty of time before then to lose the "extra pounds" he may have added on over the spring.
And let's not forget, Patrick Mahomes fell victim to criticism about his "dad bod" just a few years ago too ... and he's turned out just fine during the regular season since.

The 2025 season will mark Kelce's 13th in the league - what most T-Swift fans would say is a sign of good luck to come.
He'll be looking to bounce back, as Kelce (playing at 6-5, 250 pounds) had the lowest receiving numbers of his career last year with 823 yards and just three touchdowns.

Latest Florida Commit Shares Incredible Stat With NFL Legend
Latest Florida Commit Shares Incredible Stat With NFL Legend originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Florida Gators are on a hot streak in their college football recruitment process, securing four-star wide receiver Justin Williams, who chose the Gators over Florida State, Missouri, Kentucky, and Indiana. Advertisement He is an elite talent at wide receiver and a prolific scorer in high school. He shifted to running back after being a full-time wide receiver, and began to excel. With his multi-position transition, he achieved a feature in the state of Florida that hasn't happened in decades. Williams is the first high schooler to achieve 1,000 rushing yards and receiving yards in the same season since NFL legend Devin Hester, who accomplished that feat in 2002. Florida Gators head coach Billy Youngblood/Gainesville Sun In Williams' 2024 season, he played in 14 games, where he ran for 1,032 yards and 16 rushing touchdowns alongside 1,473 receiving yards and 13 receiving touchdowns. He Also returned one kickoff for a touchdown. Advertisement Showing he can do it all so far will allow him to go almost anywhere in the Florida system in 2026, depending on where head coach Billy Napier will want him. He may not follow the same career path as Hester, being primarily a return man, but has that potential with the versatility on the field. In Hester's first year in college with the Miami Hurricanes, he returned one kickoff for a touchdown, and was used in the offense as an explosive weapon and in trick plays. He would end his collegiate career with four punt return touchdowns, two kick return touchdowns, 160 rushing yards and a rushing score, and 196 receiving yards. He even played defense for the Hurricanes, ending his collegiate career with one sack, five interceptions and a fumble returned for a touchdown. Advertisement If the Gators get even half the player that Hester was in Williams, then they may have found themselves one of the next big players in college football.
