KANSAS CITY, Mo. (WDAF) — It's been a whirlwind 2023 for Travis Kelce. After the Kansas City Chiefs won their second Super Bowl in four years that featured the Kelce family in the lead-up, Travis spent almost the entire offseason building his brand. That included a lot of commercials and attention with his brother Jason and his mom Donna, his own "Saturday Night Live" hosting gig, and a Vanity Fair profile that explained how he's setting himself up for life after football. His offseason also featured a seemingly failed attempt at courting pop star Taylor Swift at her The Eras Tour show. Travis Kelce responds to Aaron Rodgers ‘Mr. Pfizer’ comments That attempt turned out to not be a failure since she returned to Arrowhead Stadium for a Chiefs win against the Chicago Bears after headlining two sold-out concert dates in July. The duo were even seen walking out together after the game, and reports of their Sunday night in Kansas City ruled headlines afterward. Then Swift showed up fo...APD investigating homicide in central Austin
