After a disappointing loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX in February, Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce decided to return for another season with the team, where he will once again be one of the faces of the franchise. Fittingly, a close-up photo of his face is now going viral on social media. In February, Kelce announced that he would be returning for the 2025 season with the Chiefs as he made it clear that he still thinks he is capable of playing at a high level.
“I still feel like I can play at a high level and possibly at a higher level than I did last year,” Kelce said on the podcast back in February. “I don’t think it was my best outing, you know? I think I let my guys down in a lot more moments than I helped them, especially if you look at my track record and how I’ve been in years past. You know, I want to give it a good run. I got a bad taste in my mouth about how I ended the year and how well I was playing, and how accountable I was for the people around me.”
This week, the Kansas City Chiefs shared a series of photos on social media showing some close-up shots of several members of the team taken throughout the 2024 season. Kelce’s, in particular, turned heads from fans. In the black-and-white photo shared on Instagram, Kelce stared directly into the camera with clear and bright eyes as his messy hair, mustache and stubble were all shown in great detail in the high-resolution image.

The Man, The Myth, The Legend.” someone else wrote. “karma is the guy on the chiefs,” another fan wrote. Clearly, fans seemed to think he looked good in the closeup shot.
