A Super Bowl champ whose swagger might just outshine the green. Enter the era of Travis Kelce: gridiron meets giggles.

While some stars train in silence, Travis Kelce is catching touchdowns and camera angles with equal flair, just in time for a Netflix comedy cameo.

Training camp or Kelcepalooza? Thousands showed up to see football, but what they got was the Travis Kelce highlight reel in full HD. As Patrick Mahomes launched spiral after spiral to his favorite tight end, fans erupted like Swifties spotting a surprise song. At a press conference, Coach Andy Reid was all grins as he said, “He's svelte right now. He looks like he's 20.” Clearly, 35 is the new 25 when you train like a champ and summer like a superstar.

As if torching defenses was not enough, Travis Kelce is now torching scripts. Happy Gilmore 2, starring Adam Sandler, is set to land on Netflix this Friday, and yes, Kelce has a supporting role. Is it Oscar bait? Probably not. But is it meme-worthy gold? Most definitely. Center Creed Humphrey summed it up: “Happy Gilmore was an awesome movie, so I can't wait for the sequel.” Neither can the internet, popcorn in hand and Netflix fired up.
