Travis Kelce seems to be preparing for his NFL retirement the way he is involving himself with an acting career. That’s right! The all-favorite tight end is getting breaks in acting gigs. When the Chiefs’ TE wasn’t fulfilled with just conquering the gridiron, he grabbed an acting job in the new horror fiction that is now out for everyone to watch.

This wasn’t all. She also added, “It was almost surreal. He seemed like he was kinda like in a cloud. I don’t really know how to explain that.”
