Travis Kelce Spotted Training with High School Football Players During NFL Offseason: ‘I Learned a Lot from These Kids’

Kansas City, MO — While many NFL stars spend the offseason recovering and preparing behind closed doors, Travis Kelce is taking a different approach — by hitting the field with the next generation of athletes.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end was recently spotted joining a high school football team during one of their spring workouts. The impromptu visit took both coaches and players by surprise, but quickly turned into a memorable experience as Kelce didn’t just stop by to observe — he geared up, ran drills, and even offered tips on route running and footwork.

But perhaps most surprising was Kelce’s takeaway from the session.

“I honestly learned a lot from these kids,” he told local reporters. “Their energy, their hunger, the way they support each other — it reminded me why I fell in love with the game in the first place.”

According to the coaching staff, Kelce reached out through a mutual connection, expressing interest in spending time with young athletes in the area during the NFL’s offseason window. What started as a casual idea turned into a full day of workouts, film review, and open conversations about discipline, teamwork, and the path to success.

“He didn’t big-time anyone,” said the team’s head coach. “He was out there sweating with them, pushing them, laughing with them — it was like he was one of the guys.”

For the students, the experience was nothing short of surreal.

“That’s Travis Kelce,” said one wide receiver, still in disbelief. “To have someone at his level take the time to work with us — it just makes you want to go that much harder.”

Kelce, who has been a cornerstone of the Chiefs’ offense and a fan favorite for years, has become known not only for his skill on the field, but also for his larger-than-life personality and commitment to community outreach. This latest move is just another example of how he’s staying grounded despite his fame.

“It’s cool to win Super Bowls,” he said. “But if I can inspire even one kid to chase their dreams or love the grind — that’s a win, too.”

With training camps just a few months away, Kelce’s offseason grind is far from over. But clearly, he’s making time for what matters — and leaving a legacy that stretches well beyond the gridiron.
