Tom Brady, Zach Wilson and Now Travis Kelce- How Fans React to NFL Players’ Bye Week Plans

Looks like the Kansas City Chiefs are riding high after their international triumph over the Miami Dolphins, snagging a well-deserved breather with a bye in week 10. While most players keep their R&R plans hush-hush, Travis Kelce seems to be taking a page out of Taylor Swift’s ‘Eras World Tour’ playbook with a quick jaunt to Argentina. Word on the street is, Kelce might just catch Tay-Tay’s opening concert on Nov. 9 at the Estadio River Plate.

Seems like Kelce might be following the lead of legends like Tom Brady and the rising star of the NY Jets, Zach Wilson, who’ve both embraced similar travel vibes during their bye weeks. Will Kelce’s South American jaunt turn into a moment of misery?

Travis Kelce’s equatorial escapade: Will fans blitz him like Brady and Wilson?

 Travis Kelce’s making moves, planning a South American adventure to catch Swift’s ‘Eras Tour.’ Word is, he’s penciled in to be back in Kansas City for some Monday practice action after his Argentina gig. The Chiefs aren’t hitting the field until Nov. 20 for a showdown against the Eagles on ‘Monday Night Football.’

While rumors swirl about Kelce’s travel plans, the tight end teased some wanderlust on his podcast, hinting at a sunny spot near the equator. “I might just say *** it and go somewhere nice,” Kelce dropped on the ‘New Heights’ podcast, feeling the need for some sun on his skin. Yup, he’s eyeing somewhere “south. Closer to the equator.”

Remember when Brady and Wilson caught heat for taking their bye-week trips? Will Kelce face similar flak and trolling from the fans when he gets back? It’s like waiting for the fourth-quarter drama to unfold. Will Kelce shake off the critics or end up in the red zone of backlash?

The NFL travel curse: From Brady to Wilson, Kelce’s next move under scrutiny

Last year, Tom Brady popped up at Patriots owner Robert Kraft’s wedding just before a big game. A whole two days before the Tampa Bay Buccaneers faced off against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Tampa Bay took the L, and suddenly, Brady was under the media microscope, catching flak for his travel plans.

Fast forward to this season, Zach Wilson, fresh off six weeks of constant scrutiny after Aaron Rodgers’ season-ending injury, chose to escape the noise during the bye week. Word is he jetted off to Utah with the squad–girlfriend and family included. But the critics threw shade at Wilson, especially after the last season that took an almost nosedive following the bye. It’s like a game of déjà vu. What will be Travis Kelce’s grand welcome?
