Last year at this time, Kelce was often spotted across the ocean, supporting his girlfriend, 14-time Grammy Award winner Taylor Swift, as she performed her Eras Tour in Europe. Coming off of a victory in Super Bowl LVIII, the future Pro Football Hall of Famer was basking in glory of Kansas City\u2019s second consecutive title.<\/p>\n<p>But this offseason has been the polar opposite. After Kelce and the Chiefs fell to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX, many wondered if he would even play in 2025. Some thought he would retire, and had Kansas City won, he just might have.<\/p>\n<h2>Kansas City Chiefs Tight End Travis Kelce Has Lost 25 Pounds This Offseason<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_323541\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-323541\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Kansas City Chiefs: Travis Kelce Reportedly Lost 25 Pounds During Offseason Spent Laying Low with Taylor Swift 1\" src=\"https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25282783_168400517_lowres.jpg.webp\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1568px) 100vw, 1568px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25282783_168400517_lowres.jpg.webp 1568w, https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25282783_168400517_lowres-470x600.jpg.webp 470w, https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25282783_168400517_lowres-768x980.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25282783_168400517_lowres-1204x1536.jpg.webp 1204w, https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25282783_168400517_lowres-150x191.jpg.webp 150w, https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25282783_168400517_lowres-450x574.jpg.webp 450w, https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25282783_168400517_lowres-1200x1531.jpg.webp 1200w\" alt=\"Kansas City Chiefs: Travis Kelce Reportedly Lost 25 Pounds During Offseason Spent Laying Low With Taylor Swift - Gridiron Heroics\" width=\"1568\" height=\"2000\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-323541\">Jan 26, 2025; Kansas City, MO, USA; Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce (87) against the Buffalo Bills during the AFC Championship game at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.

Rebilas-Imagn Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Not wanting to end his career with a loss in the Super Bowl, Kelce did not take much time to make a decision for the 2025 season. He is going to play.<\/p>\n<p>But in order for Kansas City to return to the top of the NFL world, he knew that he would have to play better. Last year, he had 97 receptions for 823 yards and three touchdowns. And while these numbers are far from bad, they were his lowest since 2014, his second season in the league.<\/p>\n<p>Now 35 years old, Kelce also knew that he needed to take better care of his body this offseason in order to get ready for the grind of another year in the NFL. So, he and Swift both took the opportunity to lay low. With the paparazzi held at bay, the Chiefs tight end has worked hard to get in better shape.<\/p>\n<p>And according to ESPN\u2019s Jeremy Fowler, he has lost 25 pounds as a result.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">The #Chiefs will see a slimmer Travis Kelce at minicamp next week.<\/p>\n<p>(@SportsCenter with @KevinNegandhi) pic.twitter.com\/WFDrnkEGq7<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Jeremy Fowler (@JFowlerESPN) June 14, 2025<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Last season, Kelce played weighing 250 pounds.
