Travis Kelce was given a warm welcome by Chiefs fans upon his arrival at the team’s second day of training camp, as his popstar girlfriend Taylor Swift stayed behind to continue touring in Europe.
On Monday, the 34-year-old Kelce, who only came back to the US last week, was cheered on by a large group of Chiefs fans, some of who are likely to be students, as the team takes its preseason practices to Missouri Western State University this year.
The three-time Super Bowl champion was seen walking down a hill on campus in full Chiefs practice gear, minus pads, and holding a red team helmet in his right hand.
He played with his mustache, and smiled to the crowd as a way to acknowledge fans.

Travis reported to Chiefs practice for the first time this summer on Sunday, as he was seen running several routes and even scoring a touchdown.
The tight end celebrated the go-ahead score by doing Tony Gonzalez’s signature celebration of a slam dunk over the goal post.
His sightings in practice come after it was reported that he went on a wild shopping spree with Swift, allegedly splashing out $75,000 on 14 Italian designer gifts before the popstar performed in Milan as part of her ‘Eras’ tour.
San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk also recently praised Travis, painting the nine-time Pro Bowler as ‘genuine’ and ‘so supportive’ of Swift, who he described as Travis’ ‘spouse’ by mistake.
‘I think maybe that is part of the reason why they’re so beloved by fans and why people love both of those couples,’ Juszczyk continued as he was also commending Niners teammate and running back Christian McCaffrey, who just tied the knot with model Olivia Culpo.

‘They all stayed so genuine and real. They haven’t become too good for everyone.’
Meanwhile, Taylor has emerged as the second-favorite to perform at the Super Bowl LIX in February, behind Miley Cyrus.
She was last seen with Travis at her concert in Gelsenkirchen, Germany on July 17th.
Travis wrapped his arm around Taylor as they exited backstage, waving to eagle-eyed concertgoers who caught a brief glimpse of the happy couple leaving the Veltins-Arena, which some fans believe may have marked the tight end’s final Eras Tour appearance.
