Travis Kelce has once engaged in the long-standing tradition of shaving his beard at training camp. The Kansas City Chiefs star tight end has returned to training camp fresh off the back of getting married to global pop music sensation Taylor Swift at the iconic Madison Square Garden in New York City. Travis Kelce has opted for the moustache again in training campGettyKelce returning to the Chiefs for the 2026 NFL season was initially hit-and-miss, with a plethora of speculation suggesting that he may have hung up his cleats after a disappointing campaign last time out. But after reporting to the team last week, the 36-year-old’s physique drew the attention of many fans, who debated whether he looked in better shape than he did the previous summer. “Is it me or does he look in better shape than last year?” one fan wrote on X. “Am I tripping or does Travis Kelce look cut??” a second asked.

Did he forget how last season went when he didn’t shave?”It seems those wishes have been answered.“It’s not training camp without El Travador ,” the Chiefs posted from their official social media accounts on Monday, which drew a plethora of reaction. “El Travador is back and the mustache is already undefeated.,” one fan posted in response. “This is how 23-year olds look in photos of the NFL from the 1970s,” a second user commented. “Man, training camp isn’t complete without El Travador!” a third wrote, as a fourth added, “oh he kept it demure and left a little of the beard, thank you tayjesus.”Many have argued that Kelce looks fitter in training camp this year than he has done in previous seasonsGettyKelce dons the moustache annually at training camp as an ode to ReidGettyKelce’s annual shave is ode to Andy ReidKelce’s training camp signature is a nod to his head coach Andy Reid, as a mark of respect for the only head coach he has ever had in his 14-year NFL career. “I grow out the stache every training camp — or at least I have the past three or four years since we’ve been making these title runs in honor of coach Andy Reid,” he explained to People in 2024.“He is the walrus!“He’s got that thing looking beautiful every single day,” Kelce continued.“It wasn’t just me, a couple of the offensive linemen and a couple of the skill players on the offense all did it the first year.”One last dance for KelceThis will likely be the very last time that Kelce will be able to rock the moustache at training camp, with his 14th season in the league widely expected to be his last.

Despite this season likely being his ‘last dance’, there is optimism that he will be out on the field with his close friend and teammate in quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who is targeting a Week 1 comeback after suffering a torn ACL and LCL injury in the back-end of last season. Kelce, Mahomes, and Reid enter the 2026 season with a point to prove after winning just six games and missing the post-season for the first time since 2014. The Chiefs kick off the season in the first Monday Night Football of the campaign, when they host AFC West rival Denver at Arrowhead Stadium.Before that, training camp cranks up as Reid looks to trip his roster over the weeks ahead with preseason games against the LA Rams, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Seattle Seahawks
