Weight For It...Travis Kelce Admits He Put On Pounds This Offseason

Travis Kelce has been kicking up his feet in paradise with Taylor Swift and ratcheting up the calorie count since winning the Super Bowl in February.

On his latest podcast episode, Travis and the newly retired Jason Kelce gave their thoughts on "playing shape" and how Trav may have put on some pounds since taking time off the everyday grind of the NFL.

Travis and Jason got on the subject of weight gain and food while discussing their upcoming return to their alma mater — the University of Cincinnati — on their "New Heights" podcast.

Also, Travis seems to really enjoy pizza.

The 34-year-old tight end, who won his third Super Bowl, snuck in a comment about currently placing close to that weight class amid his offseason splendor.

"I was bigger than you right now," Travis said, calling back to their Bearcat days. "I was every bit of 285 [lbs.]."

The Hollywood tabloids' photos of Mr. Swift show him slightly softer around the edges, though not worrying about your shape in the offseason makes plenty of sense. 

But even Kelce admitted that he's let himself go a bit.

"It's March, we're in the same weight class right now," Travis told his brother.

Typically, the All-Pro tight end plays around 250 lbs.

Travis may be exaggerating about his 20 to 30-pound weight gain; then again, when you show up in the playoffs like Kelce does, it's hard to ask more of the man.

In the Chiefs' AFC Championship Game against the Baltimore Ravens, Kelce set the record for most postseason receptions in NFL history at 152.

The weight of success has yet to bury Travis Kelce.

Jason Kelce has different offseason plans than his brother. 

The elder Kelce previously announced that he hopes to drop 35 lbs. now that he's out of the league.
