    Travis Kelce brings back popular 'El Travedor' look for Kansas City Chiefs training camp

    After a quick trip to Germany, Travis Kelce is back in the states and took the field on Sunday for the start of training camp.

    The Kansas City Chiefs take over Missouri Western State University, in St. Joseph. And Kelce brought back a very famous look to start training camp.

    As the Chiefs said, "KILLA STACHE IS BACK," which some may know as Kelce's popular 'El Travedor' look.

    He had the same look at the start of training camp in 2023 , however, this mustache certainly wins. And he actually spoke about it last year.

    "They call me, 'El Travedor,' " Kelce jokingly said of his new look in 2023. "It's just having fun at camp, man. Trying to switch up the look. You get sick of looking at yourself in the mirror with all of this fur on your face."

    And the mustache is also a tribute to someone very special in Chiefs Kingdom.

    "Shout out to Andy Reid, baby," Kelce exclaimed. "It's 'stache time, baby. The power of the 'stache."

    Here's why he does it

    Last year's on his New Heights podcast with his brother Jason Kelce, the tight end discussed why he typically changes his look around this time of year.

    "A few years ago, I always brought it around training camp because that's when I don't have any paid appearances, or I'm not subject to, like, doing anything where I have to, like, team up with a company and look presentable," Kelce said.

    "I would assume it's just not as recognizable. So it's like, it's actually, it's pretty funny. I'll go somewhere with a hat and sunglasses on, and nobody knows, hide in the trees. It started because of my head coach, Andy Reid. So that's where it started. Then, every year, I've just done it, and I always just look at Coach Reid, and I just start brushing that thing. Coach, I'm a Hawaiian shirt away from looking just like you."

    And clearly the look is working for him.

    "El Travedor is here to stay," Kelce said. "I plan on rocking this thing till we lose."

    Why mess with perfection! Now we just have to wait and see if Taylor Swift approves.
