Travis Kelce is turning heads with his eye-catching new hairstyle as he gears up for the upcoming NFL season at the Kansas City Chiefs' training camp.
The tight end debuted a fresh buzzcut during practice on Sunday, July 27, in St. Joseph, Mo., and he couldn't stop smiling as he hit the field with his teammates, according to the Chiefs' Instagram post.
At one point, Kelce playfully covered his new look with a white towel, but fans immediately took to social media to share their feelings about his dramatic transformation.
Fans joked ‘an angel lost its wings’ after Travis Kelce’s dramatic new haircut.
One fan remarked, "rip the luscious locks," while another lamented, "Noooooooooo, I loved 90s' heartthrob Trav!"
A third fan humorously quipped, "an angel lost its wings."
Now 35, Kelce returned to practice after spending the last few months in a $20 million mansion in Florida, preparing for the 2025-26 season. Chiefs head coach Andy Reid was quick to praise the NFL star's fitness, stating he "looks like he's 20" after focusing on his health during the offseason.
Travis Kelce spent most of the NFL offseason in Florida.
"He's svelte right now," Reid said on July 24. "He's doing a great job. He's in great shape."
He added, "You can see he's been working out."
Kelce previously opened up about his workout routine during a press conference last month. "This year, I got some time to really focus on some form running and some things early on in the offseason that I just didn't have time for last year," he shared.
