Travis Kelce, who grew up in Cleveland with a brother and supportive parents nurturing his dreams of playing professional football, recently became an internet sensation, particularly after starting a relationship with Taylor Swift.
Last week, Kelce’s popularity soared when an old prom photo of him surfaced online.
In the photo, a young Kelce sports a buzzcut and wears a pinstripe black suit, a stark contrast to his current look. The image harks back to his days at Cleveland Heights High School, which he and his brother Jason often mention on their popular podcast.
The collection of photos also includes an image of Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs teammate, Patrick Mahomes, and his wife, Brittany Mahomes, who have been together since high school and now have a family.

The post features several other NFL stars, including Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, Jacksonville Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence, former Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman, Denver Broncos QB Zach Wilson, San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey, and Chicago Bears QB Caleb Williams.
Ironically enough, Kelce and his girlfriend were named Prom King and Queen by the Hollywood Reporter:
Kelce had an impressive season, nearly setting a record for the most consecutive 1,000-yard seasons by an NFL tight end.
However, he chose to sit out the final game, missing the record by just 16 yards and ending the season with 984 receiving yards, according to ESPN.
During the 2023 NFL season, Kelce and Taylor Swift appeared nearly inseparable as she balanced attending his games with her concert schedule.
However, while Swift was recently performing three shows in Edinburgh, Scotland, Kelce was not present. Instead, he was seen participating in the David Njoku Celebrity Softball Game. He last attended Swift’s concert in Paris on May 12th.
