Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs couldn’t get it done in their third-straight Super Bowl appearance, falling to the Philadelphia Eagles 40-22 in Super Bowl LIX.
Following the season, many were awaiting Kelce’s retirement decision. The 35-year-old tight end had been pondering hanging it up, and a few weeks into the offseason, he revealed he would be returning for the 2025 season.
“I’m coming back, for sure,” Kelce said in a message to Pat McAfee. “Gonna try and get to the best shape I’ve been this offseason and get back to the mountaintop. Got a real bad taste in my mouth with how I played in that last game and how I got the guys ready for battle. I can’t go out like that!!!!”
Earlier this week, Kelce continued his Summer by getting a fresh new haircut. He went from a longer haircut to a modern, slicked-back look with a medium to long length on top and shorter sides. He also got his beard trimmed.
His barber, Vince Garcia of Los Angeles, posted a video of the haircut to his Instagram story on Saturday.
NFL fans loved Kelce’s new look, taking to social media to leave their thoughts.
“Thank you. You are doing God’s work!” one fan said.
“Really need him to stop hiding his hair under hats every chance he gets,” added another.
“He’s so good looking,” wrote a third.
“The hair! The beard! Perfect length on both,” commented a fourth.
“he’s keeping the hair lets all say thanks tay,” posted a fifth.
“the hair and the beard stay we cheered,” added a sixth.

Kelce finished his 11th full NFL season with 97 catches for 823 yards and three touchdowns. Although it was his worst statistical year since 2015, he was still able to make his tenth-consecutive Pro Bowl and was named the Chiefs’ nominee for the Walter Payton Man of the Year.
Although he didn’t win the award, his fans did help him win the Charity Challenge, which gave him $35,000 for his charity, 87 & Running.
