Concerns over Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce's physique have surfaced during training camp, with some observers noting a perceived "dad bod." However, head coach Andy Reid stated that Kelce is in good shape and performing well.
"He came back in good shape," Reid told reporters. "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 [he's] playing like crazy."
Reid asserted that the veteran player is focused and engaged during practices. Kelce, officially listed at 250 pounds, has drawn attention for his appearance in recent footage. The 36-year-old tight end had an offseason that included attending Taylor Swift's Eras Tour and his marriage to Swift in July.
Last season, Kelce recorded 76 receptions for 851 yards and five touchdowns. Some analysts suggest these statistics represent a decline for the player and have raised questions about his future performance, particularly in fantasy football contexts, with predictions that the upcoming NFL season could be his last.
