Chiefs coach Andy Reid is dismissing talk that tight end Travis Kelce showed up to training camp out of shape.
Asked on NFL Network about Kelce's offseason, which included marrying Taylor Swift, Reid said Kelce is as focused on football as he's ever been.
"He came back in good shape," Reid said. "I know everybody's out there saying he's got the dad body and all this stuff, but he looks the same to me that he's always looked, and just playing like crazy. So he's doing a nice job with everything. He's focused in and ready to go, and I appreciate that, when you have somebody who's been here 14 years and wants to be out there every snap. . . he's going to play and play hard and be aggressive and not be stopped, and that's contagious."
Kelce will turn 37 this season, and he's no longer in his prime. But Reid has no doubt that he's ready to contribute this season as the Chiefs try to turn things around following a highly disappointing 2025.
