South Floridians: We have a Travis Kelce sighting.
The Kansas City Chiefs player was spotted in a social media post over the weekend, getting his sweat on in Boca Raton, about an hour north of Miami.
High school wide receiver Jazz Lewis, son of retired NFL star Jamal Lewis, shared the selfie on his X account:
'Learned a lot from the Super Bowl legend,' wrote the Atlanta area teen, tagging the NFL, the Chiefs and @AndrewSpruill.
Spruill is not only Kelce's speed trainer, but a friend who has attended many of his games at Arrowhead Stadium in K.C., and even hobnobbed with Kelce's famous girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
Spruill not only works in sports performance but works with all levels of athletes, including youth.
'Our mission is to help each athlete reach their goals and potential,' the FAU grad writes on his website. 'Whether that be making varsity, earning an athletic scholarship or a professional athlete trying to separate from the pack.'
It's unclear where Kelce and the young man were pictured, but on Spruill's website, he says he conducts sessions at Johnny O's Gymnasium in Boca. The facility has 55 yards of outdoor field turf, an indoor weight room, Olympic lifting platforms and more.
Kelce is no stranger to the area, keeping fit with Spruill during his off season for some time. Conveniently, the 'New Heights' podcaster can also drive over to see his mom Donna, who has a condo near Orlando.
So...burning question time. Where's Swift? Did she accompany her bf on the trip? Disappointingly, the pop star's Instagram hasn't been updated since December of last year, with a carousel of her Eras tour. Moreover, the couple has been under the radar lately (meaning they haven't appeared on Page Six) so we have no idea what they are doing, which appears to be on purpose.
An insider recently told People magazine that the 35-year-old lovebirds are being low key for a reason.
'Right now, the focus is very much on private time out of the spotlight,' the source told the outlet, adding they have been traveling. 'They are making the most of their time off together. They are hanging out with friends, too. It's a special time for them.'
But since celebrity gossip is basically our full time job, we would appreciate a local Swift/Kelce status update, if possible.

Key protector for Vikings' JJ McCarthy takes big step in return from 2024 season-ending injury

The post Key protector for Vikings' JJ McCarthy takes big step in return from 2024 season-ending injury appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Minnesota Vikings are in the middle of minicamp as the team prepares for the upcoming season. JJ McCarthy is leading the way as the starting quarterback for the first time in his career after sitting out last season with an injury. On Tuesday, the second-year quarterback got some good news about one of his key protectors also returning from injury. Advertisement Minnesota announced that left tackle Christian Darrisaw returned to practice. He was spotted participating in individual drills, as he works his way back from a torn ACL he suffered in the Vikings' 30-20 Week 8 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. That's big news for the Vikings, as Darrisaw is one of the more consistent offensive linemen in the league. The 26-year-old left tackle should play a key role upon his return and help protect McCarthy throughout next season. Especially with this being JJ McCarthy's first time ever playing as a starting quarterback in the NFL. McCarthy, who is 22 years old, is coming off a torn ACL injury himself. He was potentially in the mix to start for the Vikings last season; however, he was ruled out for his entire rookie year before the season even started. Sam Darnold filled in and played well enough to earn a three-year, $100.5 million contract. Advertisement Minnesota might just be getting healthy at the right time. There's still plenty of time between now and Week 1. But the Vikings are hoping for big things next season after finding success in the 2024-25 campaign. Especially if McCarthy proves to be the franchise quarterback the team needs. The last time he took the field, McCarthy was playing for the Michigan Wolverines under Jim Harbaugh. McCarthy helped lead the Wolverines to a championship in his final year of college football. That season, he recorded 2,991 passing yards and 25 total touchdowns (22 passing) while owning an impressive 72.3% completion percentage (led the Big-Ten Conference in completion percentage that season).

3 Minnesota Vikings underrated sleepers who could break out in 2025 NFL season

The post 3 Minnesota Vikings underrated sleepers who could break out in 2025 NFL season appeared first on ClutchPoints. As the Minnesota Vikings prepare for the 2025 NFL season, all eyes are on established stars like Justin Jefferson, Christian Darrisaw, and Brian O'Neill. But beneath the marquee names, there's a group of under-the-radar talents ready to step into the spotlight. These hidden gems, Dallas Turner, Theo Jackson, and Ivan Pace Jr., could be the difference-makers who elevate the Vikings from a playoff contender to a legitimate Super Bowl threat. Here's a closer look at each sleeper and why their emergence is critical to Minnesota's success this year. Dallas Turner is the Breakout Edge Rusher-in-Waiting Matt Krohn-Imagn Images Dallas Turner enters his second NFL season with sky-high expectations, but he remains a sleeper to the casual fan. Drafted in the first round in 2024, Turner's rookie campaign was modest by the numbers, just three sacks and 12 pressures, but context is key. He was buried on the depth chart behind established veterans, finishing fourth on the team in pass-rush snaps. With Patrick Jones II now in Carolina, Turner is primed for a significant increase in playing time. Advertisement NFL analysts and Vikings insiders are bullish on Turner's Year 2 prospects. Marc Ross of has already included Turner on his list of second-year players poised for breakout seasons, pointing to the Vikings' offseason moves, adding veteran defensive linemen Javon Hargrave and Jonathan Allen, as a catalyst for Turner's potential leap. These interior additions should command double teams, freeing up Turner to wreak havoc off the edge. Head coach Kevin O'Connell has publicly predicted a 'huge jump' for Turner, and the coaching staff has emphasized the need to get him on the field more often. Turner's blend of speed, bend, and relentless motor makes him a nightmare for opposing tackles, and with more snaps, he could easily double or even triple his rookie sack total. If Turner can translate his physical tools into consistent production, he'll be a household name by season's end and a cornerstone of Minnesota's defense for years to come. Theo Jackson is the Versatile Defensive Weapon The Vikings Need While Theo Jackson may not be a name that rolls off the tongue for most NFL fans, his versatility and instincts make him a valuable asset in Minnesota's secondary. Jackson, a former sixth-round pick, has quietly carved out a niche as a hybrid safety/nickel defender, capable of covering slot receivers, blitzing off the edge, and supporting against the run. Advertisement What makes Jackson such an intriguing sleeper is his fit in Brian Flores' aggressive, multiple-look defense. Flores loves to deploy defensive backs in creative ways, and Jackson's ability to wear multiple hats gives him a unique advantage. Over the past two seasons, Jackson has flashed playmaking ability in limited snaps, and with veteran safety Harrison Smith nearing the twilight of his career, there's a clear path for Jackson to earn more playing time. The Vikings' depth in the secondary is solid, but injuries and attrition are inevitable over a 17-game season. Jackson's emergence as a reliable, high-upside contributor would provide the coaching staff with valuable flexibility and insurance. If he can continue to hone his coverage skills and capitalize on increased opportunities, Jackson could become a key piece of Minnesota's defensive puzzle and a fan favorite in the process. Ivan Pace Jr. is the Undersized Linebacker with Oversized Impact Ivan Pace Jr. is the kind of player who defies conventional wisdom. Undersized by NFL linebacker standards, Pace makes up for his lack of ideal height and length with elite instincts, toughness, and playmaking ability. After going undrafted in 2023, Pace quickly proved he belonged in the NFL, earning a spot on the Vikings' roster and making an immediate impact on special teams and in sub-packages. Advertisement Pace's rookie season was a revelation, as he consistently found himself around the football and made big plays when called upon. His quickness and football IQ allow him to diagnose plays and explode to the ball, making him a nightmare for opposing offenses in the run game. While he may never be a traditional every-down linebacker, Pace's ability to excel in passing situations and as a blitzer gives him a unique role in Flores' defense. With the Vikings' linebacker room in flux—veterans like Jordan Hicks and Brian Asamoah providing stability but also aging, Pace has a golden opportunity to carve out a larger role in 2025. If he can continue to develop his coverage skills and prove he can hold up against the run, Pace could become a staple in Minnesota's defense and one of the most underrated playmakers in the league. If these three sleepers can take the next step in their development, the Vikings' depth will be one of their biggest assets, and a major storyline, throughout the 2025 NFL season. Their growth could be the difference between a good Vikings team and a true contender, and fans should keep a close eye on their progress as the season unfolds.

Vikings rumors: Minnesota encouraged by J.J. McCarthy's recent injury progress

The post Vikings rumors: Minnesota encouraged by J.J. McCarthy's recent injury progress appeared first on ClutchPoints. Despite his recovery from a knee injury, the Minnesota Vikings committed to quarterback J.J. McCarthy in the 2025 offseason over Sam Darnold. So far, they are pleased with that decision, believing the former top-10 pick will be ready to go by training camp. Advertisement McCarthy, who is still rehabbing the torn meniscus that kept him out of the entire 2024 season, looked better on the field each day of the Vikings' mandatory minicamp, ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported. Fowler added that Minnesota could not be more pleased with McCarthy's progression and has built a 'three-year plan' around him. 'The Vikings feel that J.J. McCarthy in day nine of his offseason workouts was a lot stronger than day one,' Fowler said. 'Coming off that knee issue, they knew he could start a little slowly, but they like the way he's throwing the ball. They feel very comfortable with where he's at going into training camp; they didn't sign [Aaron Rodgers] in lieu of McCarthy because they believe in their three-year plan… They believe they can win the Super Bowl in the next three years.' The Vikings entered the 2025 offseason with a conundrum and were forced to decide between Darnold and McCarthy as their long-term quarterback. While nobody expected Darnold to blow up in 2024 the way he did, general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah ultimately opted to let the veteran walk, clearing the way for McCarthy. Advertisement After losing Kirk Cousins, the Vikings traded up for McCarthy in the 2024 NFL Draft. The torn meniscus derailed his rookie campaign, but Adofo-Mensah and Kevin O'Connell have gushed over his potential throughout the offseason. Vikings, J.J. McCarthy prepare for rejuvenated 2025 season Mark J. Rebilas-Imagn Images The Vikings traded for Sam Howell on draft night, but 2025 will be the Year of J.J. McCarthy. However, Minnesota endured several other changes in the offseason to boast an improved roster in the fall. McCarthy will work behind a revamped offensive line that includes the recent additions of Ryan Kelly, Will Fries and Donovan Jackson. After allowing 49 sacks in 2024, Minnesota's offensive line should be much improved in 2025. Advertisement The Vikings' offense also added Jordan Mason, Tai Felton and Rondale Moore. The signings provide depth to an already elite skill group led by Pro Bowlers Justin Jefferson and Aaron Jones. Everything Adofo-Mensah did in the offseason was meant to build around McCarthy and give him the best possible situation to debut in.
