Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce recently broke his social media silence following the team’s Super Bowl LIX defeat by posting on X (formerly Twitter). This marked his first activity on the platform since February 7, drawing significant attention from fans and media alike.
Kelce’s return to social media comes after a period of relative quiet following the Chiefs’ 40-22 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. During this time, both Kelce and his girlfriend, pop star Taylor Swift, maintained a low profile. Swift, who had not posted since the conclusion of her “Eras Tour” in early December, also resumed her online presence on March 22 by promoting Selena Gomez and Blanco’s new album, “I Said I Love You First,” on her Instagram Stories.
Fans reacted enthusiastically to Kelce’s post, with comments ranging from playful remarks about his online absence to expressions of support. One user quipped, “Oh hello. You finally remembered your password??” while another exclaimed, “HES ALIVEEE.”
During his hiatus from social media, Kelce remained active in other ventures. He continued recording episodes of his podcast, “New Heights,” alongside his brother, retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce. Additionally, the Kelce brothers have been involved in promoting an Ohio-based beer company, in which they are major investors.
Kelce’s subdued performance in Super Bowl LIX, where he was limited to four receptions for 39 yards, was a topic of discussion among analysts and fans. Reflecting on the game, Kelce stated, “We haven’t played that bad all year,” acknowledging the team’s struggles during the championship matchup.
In the aftermath of the Super Bowl, Kelce and Swift were spotted together in Park City, Utah, marking their first public appearance since the game. The couple’s relationship has been a subject of public interest, with Swift frequently attending Chiefs games throughout the season to support Kelce.
As the offseason progresses, Kelce’s engagement on social media and public appearances will likely continue to draw attention, reflecting his prominent role both on and off the field.
