Travis Kelce is ready to go!
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 37, brought the energy and excitement to Week 6 as he led his team alongside quarterback Patrick Mahomes out of the tunnel at Arrowhead Stadium to take on the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, Oct. 18.
“Let’s go!” shouted Kelce, as he confidently marched through the stadium halls from the locker room to the field in his No. 87 red-and-white jersey. He clapped his hands before telling his team, “Get the juices going! Get the juices going!” as seen in a clip shared by the Chiefs on Instagram.
Mahomes added: “Hey man, this is another opportunity. Another opportunity to showcase who we are. Take advantage of that s---. Take the opportunity to make the play. Every moment, make the play.”
“Fearless!” another Chiefs player shouted in the huddle before three-time Super Bowl champion Mahomes, 31, led the team in a group cheer.
“Playmakers on three. One, two, three … playmakers!” the quarterback called out in unison with his teammates before they took the field.

It’s an exciting game for the Chiefs, marking the team’s first week back since their Week 5 bye and entering Week 6 4-0. Kelce, seemingly rested and refreshed per his hype in the tunnel and explosiveness on the field after kickoff, enjoyed some time away from the game during his break.
The star tight end kept his bye week sporty, however, but this time it wasn’t football-related. Rather, the Ohio native attended the Cleveland Guardians’ postseason matchup against the Chicago White Sox for Game 5 of the American League Division Series on Oct. 10.

The Cleveland Heights native, who bought a minority stake in the Guardians in May, was all smiles as he cheered on his home team with Taylor Swift at Progressive Field during the Kansas City Chiefs’ bye week.
Kelce also celebrated his 37th birthday earlier this month, enjoying a trip to New York City, where he and his wife, 36, stepped out together for multiple date nights in Manhattan.
Swift, meanwhile, returned to her signature suite to support Kelce at the Chiefs-Chargers game fresh off her appearance at the sixth annual Academy Museum Gala in Los Angeles on Saturday, Oct. 17, where she turned heads in a custom Dior gown by Jonathan Anderson when she hit the red carpet.

The pop superstar was spotted in a suite alongside Este Haim and Caitlin Clark, marking her third appearance at a Chiefs game this season. Swift, who wed Kelce at Madison Square Garden in New York City on July 3, has attended every home game this regular season to date.
A video shared on X showed Swift watching from a suite in a red turtleneck, which she paired with her signature red lip. She appeared to be excitedly chatting with and hugging those around her.
One snap on the platform showed her clapping her hands while standing with Haim, 40, and Clark, 24.
The Chiefs-Chargers matchup was a family affair. Ahead of the game, Jason Kelce hosted a tailgating event that was attended by his parents Donna Kelce and Ed Kelce.
