NFL superstar Travis Kelce turned heads on Thursday with a dashing new look during a rare photoshoot near girlfriend Taylor Swift’s Tribeca apartment. Ditching his usual football gear, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end embraced an entirely different aesthetic—one that fans are calling straight out of a British cricket field.
Kelce was spotted wearing a crisp white sweater, khaki pants, sleek white sneakers, and stylish sunglasses—completing a polished, effortlessly suave ensemble. The 35-year-old athlete carried a camouflage tote bag while posing beside a vintage Chevrolet Chevelle SS, parked elegantly on a quiet Manhattan street. The surrounding buildings and sidewalks closely resembled the Tribeca neighborhood, where Swift maintains her New York residence, although the singer herself was not seen.
This rare appearance comes at a time when the couple has consciously stepped away from the public eye following February’s Super Bowl. Despite the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, Kelce’s appearance suggests he’s embracing a fresh start—with fashion, fame, and possibly film work all still on the table.
Sources confirmed Kelce was filming a commercial during the shoot, though details of the project remain under wraps. The stylish shoot hints at a possible new chapter for the athlete, who’s been balancing football, entertainment ventures, and his high-profile relationship with Swift.
Kelce and Swift were last seen together in Manhattan several weeks ago, quietly entering Del Frisco’s Grill for a private dinner date. The duo has long considered New York City one of their favorite getaways, making frequent low-key visits over the past year. Notably, they were spotted last September at the US Open men’s final with friends Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, followed by a chic Mediterranean dinner in the city.
With the Met Gala set to take place this coming Monday, fans are speculating whether Kelce and Swift will resurface as surprise attendees at fashion’s biggest night. The timing also aligns with another major event—Saturday’s Kentucky Derby, which Kelce attended in 2024. Given his past attendance, it’s very possible he could fly to Louisville for the race and return to NYC in time for the Gala.
While Kelce has recently kept a lower profile, even retreating to Montana for a ski trip in March, insiders say the athlete has been intentionally stepping back from the limelight. Some reports claim Kelce felt the media frenzy around his relationship with Swift impacted his on-field performance. Last week, he was seen back on the training field, away from cameras, focused and determined.
Despite whispers of retirement after this year’s Super Bowl, Kelce appears to be bouncing back—stylish, composed, and ready for whatever’s next. Whether it’s a return to top football form, a new direction in fashion or film, or simply enjoying life with Taylor, one thing is clear: Travis Kelce is owning the spotlight on his terms.
Stay tuned—because with the Met Gala and Kentucky Derby just days away, this power couple might just be ready to step back into the public eye, and they’ll do it looking absolutely stunning.
