GQ has named Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce the cover subject of its September 2025 issue, releasing an extensive profile that details the 35-year-old’s preparations for the upcoming NFL season following the Chiefs’ Super Bowl defeat in February. Kelce, who owns three championship rings from five Super Bowl trips, says last season’s loss and a perceived dip in his own performance have sharpened his focus. Working with longtime speed coach Tony Villani in Fort Lauderdale, he told the magazine his sole objective is “to win a Super Bowl,” adding that offseason entertainment projects will not overshadow football commitments. The article also explores Kelce’s post-NFL ambitions, including media ventures such as the $100 million Wondery deal for his ‘New Heights’ podcast, and investments in local businesses. Asked about his high-profile relationship with Taylor Swift, Kelce compared the singer’s demanding stage schedule to elite athletic training, calling her work ethic “mind-blowing” and noting that she has become an avid student of football strategy.
