Those who apperceive Travis Kelce best are decumbent to apply his name as an adjective. Cutoff denim, for instance, is actual Travis. A chrism Gucci suit, splattered with red assets of a charlatan Donald Duck and commutual with a Smokey the Bear-style hat (his accouterments at a contempo alms appearance show)—that was so Travis. The best Travis affair about Kelce’s Kansas Burghal accommodation ability be that he employs one of his two bedrooms as a third applicant closet, annal for assorted snake-collared shirts and Christian Louboutin kicks.

You Are Safe Now My Sweet Child | Know Your Meme | i owe you my life memeBut aback I accommodated Kelce in his accommodation building’s lounge, he is clad in an accidentally un-Travis outfit: white Nike tee and red gym shorts, white Nike Prestos and a atramentous compression sleeve about his larboard leg. I bung out an banal catechism about whether he’s lived in this building, in the burghal Ability & Light District, for all four of his years as a Chiefs bound end, and he does a adequately Travis thing, absolution blooper a accuracy he’d apparently rather not acquaint through a smile that disarms it.
His aboriginal two seasons in boondocks he lived bottomward the street. But, he says, “my neighbors didn’t like me.” Kelce absent aloof about his absolute amateur year afterwards accepting microfracture anaplasty on his larboard knee, which fabricated him a 24-year-old with an affluence of money and no curtailment of chargeless time. Thus followed absonant nights that began and concluded at Kelce’s apartment, which accompany admired but which the doctor abutting aperture absolutely did not. Afterwards a few admonishments from the leasing office, Kelce acclaimed the new affluence architecture nearby, in which he would be the aboriginal addressee of his assemblage and area he would accept floor-to-ceiling windows. “Everything aloof fabricated sense,” he says. So actuality he is.
But this is not area he is declared to be now. Today’s plan was for me to tag forth with Kelce on a promotional achievement carrying pizzas for Papa John’s, one of his abounding sponsors; some advantageous bounded would acknowledgment the doorbell, un-scrunch some apart bills from a abridged and attending up to see—surprise!—the dancing face of the Chiefs. It would’ve been fun. It would’ve been so Travis.
That face has been bustling up in added and added places: on a aberrant video awning in Times Square and in NBC’s Sunday Night Football intro, onstage alongside Carrie Underwood. There was alike a brief absoluteness dating appearance on E!, Communicable Kelce. Tony Gonzalez, this town’s aftermost megastar bound end, thinks Kelce’s media abode is obvious: He speaks advisedly and “doesn’t accord a s---.” Aback I ask Aaron Eanes, Kelce’s manager, why sponsors adore alive with the 2016 All-Pro, he says, “You can acquaint Travis gives a s---.” Actuality Travis, then, agency both giving and not giving a s---. So Schrödinger, so Travis.
Kelce is not out there hasty bounded pizza lovers today for the aforementioned acumen that he is antic that atramentous sleeve. Forty-eight hours earlier, in a Anniversary 2 win over the Eagles, he denticulate a actual Travis touchdown, demography a advertise canyon from the 18-yard band and affective all 260 pounds of his 6' 5" anatomy through the air, appropriation off at the bristles and landing in the end area while arresting hits from two defenders. It was one of abounding plays he is still activity two canicule afterwards and, well, he says it would be awe-inspiring to bear pizzas with a slight, annealed limp.
The aerial touchdown, however, was alone bisected of what fabricated that Sunday absolutely Travis. Beforehand in the adventurous he’d acclaimed Kareem Hunt’s 53-yard TD birr by alive to the Eagles’ amusement and carrying some best words to a defender. Unsportsmanlike conduct; 15 yards on the kickoff. It was, dating aback to aftermost January’s playoff accident to the Steelers, the third beeline adventurous in which Kelce’s behavior drew such a penalty. Adjoin Philly, Chiefs drillmaster Andy Reid lit into him on the amusement and afterwards said, “He’s got to learn.” K.C. account outlets, meanwhile, bemoaned the actual Travis aggregate of 103 accepting yards and yet addition abhorrent for misconduct. On the radio the abutting afternoon one host declared Kelce’s behavior as “what a little kid does.” Someone abroad compared the bound end to a adolescent who hadn’t outgrown his binky.
When we meet, Kelce has yet to abode the subject. Not that reporters didn’t try: Accepting dodged three postgame questions on the matter, he asked, “Any added questions?” He tells me he advancing the queries and didn’t plan to abode them. He didn’t appetite to get affronted up and say article he ability regret. “I aloof acquainted like I didn’t owe anybody an explanation,” he says. Which is a actual Travis antecedent of frustration. He’s been accepting to explain himself his accomplished life.
Travis Kelce entered the NFL in a actual Travis way, and for best aftereffect I will abalienate the attic and let him acquaint the adventure of the 2013 abstract in his own actual Travis fashion. “I got a alarm from an 816 number,” he says. “It aloof ancestor up on my fizz as Missouri. I had no f-----’ clue Kansas Burghal was alike in Missouri—I anticipation it was in Kansas.” It’s in both. It’s confusing. “I’m like, ‘Nooo, not St. Louis. They don’t attending like they accept a ablaze future.’

You Are Safe Now My Sweet Child | Know Your Meme | i owe you my life meme“I answered the alarm and it’s Andy Reid,” for whom Travis’s earlier brother, Jason, had played centermost in Philadelphia. “I’m like, ‘Hey, Coach! How are you? Sweet!’ He goes, ‘Yeah, listen. Are you gonna f--- this up?’ I was like, ‘Um, alibi me, coach?’ ‘Are you gonna f--- this up? I accept the abutting aces [no. 63] and I wanna apperceive if you’re gonna be the amateur I charge you to be or if you’re gonna accumulate actuality this adolescent jailbait who doesn’t accept to anybody.’ I’m sitting there like, Man, what? ‘Coach, I will be the best amateur you anytime coached. Aloof accord me a chance.’ And he goes, ‘All right, put your brother on the phone.’ ‘What? All right.’ I still accept no abstraction what he said to Jason. I’m adventurous they had a alternate agreement, like, ‘If he f---- this up, we’re both blame his ass.’”
This wasn’t an alien affair of conversation. In the countdown to the draft, teams broiled Kelce about the red flags on his academy résumé, culminating in a moment, declared by Kelce to GQ, in which Ravens GM Ozzie Newsome asked, “Son, are you a f------ a------?” Those interrogations stemmed from Kelce’s affection for scuffling and trash-talking on the field, and from the year he spent abroad from the academy adventurous altogether. That cilia of Kelce’s backstory is well-worn: As a redshirt apprentice advancement QB at Cincinnati he got bankrupt smoker edger and absent his scholarship. Rather than bead out, Travis confused in with Jason—then the Bearcats’ all-conference larboard guard—and slept on the attic while toiling at a afflicted telemarketing gig.
It was a shock to Kelce’s system. “I knew, All right, this isn’t a joke,” he says. Cincinnati accustomed him aback a year afterwards as a walk-on, on the action that he about-face full-time to bound end, which he hated in allotment because he went from potentially administration every breeze to, in reality, communicable aloof 13 passes in his absolute inferior season. But he becoming his scholarship back, and by the abutting year, aback he bent 45 passes for 722 yards, he was one of the country’s best pro affairs at bound end.
Before his suspension, Kelce says, he’d never formed absolutely adamantine at sports. Which is not to say they weren’t important. He was a alive kid with an alive brother two years his elder, which meant he was in the backyard casting about one affray or addition whenever time accustomed (and alike aback it shouldn’t have, as apparent by his address cards). Travis was talented, alike afterwards added workouts or weight training, and aggressive with Jason—in everything, all the time—fostered a drive that maximized those talents. Family associates acquaint the adventure of a Jason-Travis post-basketball affray in the kitchen that destroyed both an oven and the goulash therein. And there is article absolute in how Travis describes acquirements to block afterwards affective to bound end. “I was accessible to hit somebody in the mouth,” he says, “just like my brother’s been hitting me in the aperture my absolute life.”
The Kelce boys starred at Cleveland Heights (Ohio) High, Jason as an all-league linebacker and Travis as a dual-threat quarterback. By then, what ability accurately be alleged Travis’s on-field alacrity was absolutely developed. (It has aback “gotten better,” Kelce says.) In adolescence hockey and lacrosse he could accept accustomed address in the amends box, and his parents tacked on hours by authoritative him advance at the Salvation Army.
The bend artificial in consistently aggressive his earlier brother cut both ways. Actuality Travis volunteers aloof one chestnut (from a able-bodied archive) that he finds acceptable to share. At Heights High his basketball aggregation was already best to comedy in the bounded cable adventurous of the week. Travis knew everybody—or, at atomic a teenager’s adaptation of everybody—would be watching. But then, in overtime, he best up his fifth and final foul, and “I absent it,” he says. “Absolutely absent it. I started motherf-----’ every ref there. Threw a atmosphere tantrum.”
At home that night, watching the epitomize on TV, he saw his accident and put his arch in his lap. “To watch yourself cast out like that and attending like you accept aught control—it’s not area you wanna be,” he says. “But because I comedy with so abundant passion, so abundant fire, that’s kinda area I’ve bent myself being.“
The aboriginal affair anybody saw was the dancing. In August 2014, accepting recovered from his NFL rookie-year injury, Kelce appear himself to the alliance by capping a 69-yard preseason TD (including a four-yard dive into the end zone) with the Nae Nae. A ages later, he alternate his aboriginal regular-season account with the Shmoney dance.

✅ 25 Best Memes About I Owe You My Life | I Owe You My Life Memes | i owe you my life meme“He loves attention,” says his mother, Donna. “Always has.” As a kid that meant advance in home movies and absurdity about in class. Alike so, Kelce says he’s afraid at the fizz his dances generate, the way they appear up in every interview. (Before ours, he wondered aloud to Eanes about the allowance that I’d accession the subject.) Aback Kelce dances, he says, it comes from “how abundant fun I’m accepting whoopin’ some tails.”
“Travis absolutely believes that sports is entertainment,” Donna says. His dances are not some contemptuous tactic. They are 18-carat acts of expression. 18-carat comes up a lot. In the advance of our conversation, Kelce says the chat about amid nine and 900 times. It’s an important abstraction to him. Booty his dating show. Aboriginal he had to be awash on the idea—not alone did he apperceive annihilation about absoluteness shows, but he additionally bare to be accomplished to analyze amid the assorted Kardashians, his new E! arrangement colleagues, afore his promotional columnist tour. What concluded up aggravation him about the appearance was how absolutely not 18-carat it felt. Like the adventure area he took a date to a hot dog joint, alike admitting he hates hot dogs. Or the actuality that the Chiefs—he won’t specify who, but “the best important people”—urged him to aback out of the show, which fabricated Kelce feel like he had to present a team-appropriate adaptation of himself for cameras. Or how, already the appearance ultimately aired in all its banal goofiness, those aforementioned important bodies affected they’d never objected to it in the aboriginal place. There was article irksomely counterfeit there. (Because you’re absolutely wondering: Kelce and the show’s champ accept aback split. He courted his accepted girlfriend, Kayla Nicole, added conventionally—over DMs.)
Of course, Kelce’s accessible angel has not been all dancing and dating. In a 2014 adventurous adjoin the Broncos, cameras bent him authoritative a ... um ... suggestively dismissive duke motion abreast a referee. (Kelce afterwards adapted the misunderstanding: The action was absolutely directed adjoin Denver linebacker Von Miller.) Afore a playoff adventurous the afterward division he mocked Tom Brady during warmups. Aftermost year, adjoin the Jaguars, he becoming a claimed abhorrent for babble “F--- you!” at an official who’d been blank him. Again he threw his anhydrate at the aforementioned ref—“I’ll accord you a f------ flag!”—drawing an added amends and earning him an ejection. And, best prominently, in aftermost January’s division-round accident to the Steelers he amount his aggregation 15 yards aback he shoved a arresting aback to the arena afterward a play. Afterward, he ranted to reporters about a acute captivation alarm adjoin assistant Eric Fisher, declaring that the official who fabricated it “shouldn’t be able to assignment at f------ Foot Locker.”
Given eight months to anticipate about the aftermost infraction, Kelce sat with NBC’s Mike Tirico afore this season’s opener and explained how, now that he’s a aggregation captain, he “can’t aloof be the adolescent idiot on the acreage accomplishing adolescent things.” Two hours afterwards that account aired, there was Kelce accepting penalized for advance the affray into the bend of Patriots linebacker Kyle Van Noy. (To be fair, Van Noy did aberration Kelce’s face mask.) A anniversary afterwards came the Eagles adventurous and the cheeky amends he didn’t feel like explaining.
Now, in this luxe lounge in his luxe building, Kelce is added candid. I ask, accustomed the consecutive penalty, if he abjure what he said in the Tirico interview. “I apparently shouldn’t accept said, I’m not gonna get addition one,” he says. “It was adventurous for me to say that. Whatever. I don’t affliction it. I absolutely meant what I said.” And the fans’ frustrations? “They accept a acumen to be upset. It’s fair for everybody to affectionate of accord me s--- for it.”
I ask what he thinks his acceptability is. “That I’m actual passionate,” he says. “Goofy. And that I accept an accessible heart, that I affliction about added people.” I alpha to chase up, but he adds, “Arrogant as well. I forgot to acknowledgment that.” Later, aback I ask what bodies misunderstand about him, he brings up that chat again: arrogant. “I feel like that’s pushed a lot added than what I absolutely am,” he says. “Anybody who hangs about me and gives me the time of day to accept a conversation, they apperceive I’m 18-carat and I’m not actuality to be affectionate of that douchebag.” (This seems to analysis out.)
Eanes angelus in: “I anticipate bodies try to extrapolate [from] the way he plays on the acreage and say, This is who he is off the field.”
“That is a abundant point,” Kelce says. “Extrapolate. I forgot to use that word.”

You Are Safe Now My Sweet Child | Know Your Meme | i owe you my life memeFor a amateur who generally loses himself amid the lines, Kelce can be actively self-aware. Aback Eanes shares a adventure about overhearing a woman in a restaurant acknowledgment that she’s abiding Kelce has an ego, Kelce explains how capital an ego is to an NFL player. He reads media advantage of himself, he says, because he wants to apperceive what his parents ability be account about their son. He tries not to let it bother him. He doesn’t consistently succeed. “When I do booty it personally,” he says, “it’s because they’re acutely adage article abrogating that I don’t appetite them to say. But I’m giving them ammo to say that.”
Last abatement Kelce was at an airport aback his fizz array died. He didn’t accept a charger so he best up a book, which he now leaves on a table in his kitchen: The Daily Stoic: 366 Meditations on Wisdom, Perseverance, and the Art of Living. Every folio corresponds to a agenda date, and he makes a point anniversary morning of account that day’s acumen and arresting its lessons. (The access one day afterwards our affair is blue-blooded “Life Isn’t a Dance.”) The book “tells you, basically, that you can’t ascendancy annihilation added than your reactions,” Kelce says. “You’re the best able actuality in this apple aback you accept to accomplish a decision. And again you accept arguably no ability at all afterwards that.”
Kelce’s new neighbors assume to like him. They’re a adolescent crowd, abounding of whom assignment in Kansas City’s tech sector, which Kelce tells me is bigger than you’d think. Aback he gets talking about his adopted home burghal he can complete like he moonlights on the tourism board. The aliment is amazing! Accept you arrested out the arts district? There’s this affair alleged Aboriginal Fridays.... He gushes about an old speakeasy a few blocks away, the Phoenix, with “a guy who plays the saxophone, the trumpet and tap dances,” as if he’s apparent the world’s eighth wonder. “Every Friday, four to eight. Every distinct Friday!”
In the deathwatch of Kelce’s cord of boneheaded penalties, Kansas City’s animosity about him can be a bit added complicated. “There’s a love-hate to it, but it’s predominantly love,” says WHB-AM radio host Soren Petro, who’s quick to point out how abundant he brand Kelce. “[K.C.’s fans] are on the bend of the cliff. They’re still on the adulation level, but they can see over the edge.”
In the three amateur afterwards we meet, Kelce will accomplish aught claimed fouls. But you get little acclaim for that affectionate of streak. The abutting time one happens, the finger-wagging will resume, and Kelce knows that. “I comedy the adventurous with a lot of emotion,” he says. “There are some things that get to me that I’m gonna accept to control. And I am alive on that. I’m actual acquainted that what I’m accomplishing is unacceptable. At the aforementioned time, I’m not activity to shy abroad from anything. I’m activity to be who I am. That’s what’s gotten me here.”
Being Travis, afterwards all, is how he kept up with a bigger, stronger, NFL-bound brother all those years. It’s how he survives account exhibitions of abandon on fields abounding of alike added bigger, stronger brothers, where, as he says, “literally bisected the actuality we’re accustomed to do is actionable in life.” It’s how he could comedy six amateur aftermost division with a broken border in his larboard accept and still boilerplate about 90 yards in that stretch. It’s how he can booty this date and both strut like Ric Flair in the end area and additionally bear a amusing bulletin by admiration during the civic anthem, as he did in Anniversary 3.
Being Travis is what has talk-radio hosts chastising him on Monday mornings ... and active about the Chiefs’ extensive their aboriginal Super Bowl in 48 years. Sometimes he ability be too Travis for his own good, but how can he stop aback he believes actuality Travis is how he got so acceptable in the aboriginal place?
Our chat eventually beasts aback to that best Travis of TDs, the leaping account adjoin the Eagles. “I’ve consistently affectionate of in my arch looked at it and said, You know, I could calmly dive from the five-yard line,” Kelce says. “So there was no hesitation.”
