Travis Kelce appears to be fully focused on Super Bowl 2025 despite his New Orleans date night with girlfriend Taylor Swift on Friday.
After fans said his romantic evening with the âCruel Summerâ songstress was a âbad lookâ and made it look like he might be âunfocused,â the Kansas City Chiefs tight end took to Instagram to share a hype message.
Alongside a video of him excelling on the field, he wrote, âđŁïžDonât peak too soon!!â
His Saturday message didnât appear to be a direct response to the negative online chatter, but the clip did make it clear that Kelce is fully prepared to take on the Philadelphia Eagles inside Caesars Superdome on Sunday.
Kelceâs social media video comes less than 24 hours after he was spotted on a double date with Swift, quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany.
While many Swifties were elated to see the couples out and about, there were a number of NFL fans who criticized Kelceâs perceived lack of focus.
One commenter said Kelce looked âunfocused,â while another wrote, âBad look. Kelce supposed to be locked in and watching film. Iâm sure that could have waited.â
A third person added, âNormally the players do not go out the week before they are playing in the Super Bowl because of how seriously they take the game, or so Iâm told. Even saw an old clip of that Kelce guy saying that.â
Last year, while speaking on his âNew Heightsâ podcast ahead of the Chiefsâ participation in Super Bowl 2024, Kelce told his brother, Jason Kelce, âWeâve got one week, we do what we need to do then we can party in Vegas for the rest of our lives.â
The Chiefs did end up beating the San Francisco 49ers last year, so itâs possible that Kelceâs commitment to being disciplined in the build-up to the big game played a role in their big win.
However, based on Kelceâs latest Instagram message, he seems just as prepared to win this yearâs Super Bowl.
If he and the Chiefs are crowned the winners, itâll be Kelceâs fourth time being a Super Bowl champ. The team previously won in 2020, 2023 and 2024. This yearâs win would also make it a three-peat â the first time a team has ever won three Super Bowls in a row.
