Kayla Nicole kept things professional Monday when discussing ex-boyfriend Travis Kelce on the “I Am Athlete Daily” show, where she briefly spoke about the tight end’s quiet start to the season.
When conversing about sports betting ahead of the Chiefs’ Monday night clash against the Saints, Kayla — who dated Kelce on and off for years — referenced that it’s been “a slow start for the guy Travis Kelce” before asking whether he would get more than 58.5 receiving yards.
Kelce, 35, had 70 receiving yards in Kansas City’s 26-13 win over New Orleans.

While some on social media speculated about Kayla’s demeanor when discussing the Chiefs tight end, others lauded the on-air host for how she handled the situation.
“She kept it professional and classy. She’s moved on,” one Instagram user commented.
“It’s not personal it’s business baby!” another exclaimed.

Kelce has struggled this year, averaging the fewest yards per catch (9.5) in his 12-year NFL career.
A year later, Kelce began his romance with music sensation Taylor Swift and well, the rest is history.
