Travis Kelce,͏ the Kansas City Chief͏s’ supersta͏r ͏tigh͏t end, has bee͏n͏ riding a wave of success this se͏ason, with͏ his t͏eam’s ͏i͏mpressive run ke͏e͏ping fans on͏ their toes. Known f͏or his dominant presence on the field and entertaining off-͏f͏ield pe͏rsonality, Ke͏lce’s brot͏herly ͏bond with Jason ͏Kelc͏e͏ often brin͏g͏s liv͏ely d͏iscussions. In such a conversation, they welcomed re͏tired MLB star CC Sabathia, who shared a few stories from his own athletic career while bringing  up his admi͏ration ͏for Travis’ physical͏ pr͏owess.

The talk started with some light-hearted ribbing as Jason Kelce looked back on his brother’s early days on the gridiron. Laughing, Jason said, “Look at the big fella! You were enormous back then, and athletic as all get out!” CC Sabathia joined in, amused at Travis’ transformation from a high school quarterback to an NFL tight end, commenting, “Imagine trying to tackle CC Sabathia in the open field.” With Sabathia reminiscing about his own favorite sport, football, he added that he only started playing in high school due to weight limits but quickly found his footing.

Travis responded, sharing how much he loved football once he got the chance. “I was 6’6” and 250 by my junior year,” he laughed. “They said, ‘We need to put you at tight end, man.’” Sabathia, who could appreciate the evolution, recognized the challenge of shifting from quarterback to such a demanding role, but he lightheartedly downplayed his own chances of NFL greatness, saying, “Absolutely not, I’m not gonna sit here and disrespect you guys like that.”

As the conversation continued, the MLB star admired how the Kelce brothers could switch from laughs to serious insights, reminiscing about their journeys and the physical demands they’d faced. Sabathia, who started his athletic journey in football, even mentioned imagining the difficulty of trying to tackle Kelce on the field, giving some humor to the tense fan reactions. This engaging exchange showed a side of Kelce many fans don’t get to see – more about brotherhood, sportsmanship, and a mutual respect among athletes.

In connection to MLB, the Chiefs TE has been facing some issues. It was noticed since Kelce and Swift were noticed at a Yankees game.

Travis Kelce caught in Yankees-Guardians tug-of-war, faces backlash amid MLB playoffs

Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce is getting heat from baseball fans after his recent support for the Cleveland Guardians, despite previous affiliations with the New York Yankees. As the MLB postseason heats up, Kelce was spotted at Yankee Stadium alongside pop icon Taylor Swift during Game 1 of the ALCS, cheering as the Yankees beat the Guardians 5-2. The sighting caused an uproar among Guardians fans, particularly because Kelce wasn’t wearing Cleveland gear, sparking rumors that he might be a Yankees supporter after all.

The backlash started when fans dug up an old tweet from 2010, where Kelce lamented, “My #Yankees lost… smh hats off to the #Rangers though, but I’m hurttin’ tonight!” This past loyalty to New York left Cleveland fans feeling betrayed, as Kelce had been a lifelong Guardians supporter, often seen at Cleveland games and throwing the first pitch just this past July. He responded to criticism on social media, saying, “I’ve been a Cleveland sports fan my entire life… just enjoying memories with friends and family, WIN OR LOSE!”

Interestingly, former MLB pitcher CC Sabathia, who played for both the Guardians and Yankees, shares some history with Kelce. As things are going on, Kelce remains focused on his love for Cleveland, while fans are left wondering where his true baseball allegiance lies.
