This is not a drill. Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is going to be the star of a dating show on E! entitled Catching Kelce, which will premiere at a date later this year, per Deadline.
If you can’t get excited about this, you are dead. Kelce is one of the great personalities in the National Football League and now he’s being set up with 50 women, one from each state. At the end of this, Kelce has to choose one women to hopefully spend the rest of his life with. I can only imagine the women that will be involved in this thing.
Kelce is young, good-looking and rich, not to mention famous. He’s going to attract plenty of women for a variety of reasons. Kelce is also going to be joined by family and friends throughout the show, so perhaps there are some teammates that get involved.

There is no way that a Chiefs fan can’t watch this. Not only do we all get to see Kelce trying to find the love of his life, but we get to see what he’s like away from the field. It’s going to be fascinating and like all these shows, there are going to be carnival acts involved.
Kelce has put in three years with Kansas City after being drafted in the third round of the 2013 NFL Draft out of the University of Cincinnati. Kelce is a Pro Bowler for the first time this year, having notched career-highs in yardage and receptions.
So, does this impact the team? It remains to be seen. You would have to imagine that Kelce is filming this thing right now, and it will probably air during the preseason and/or regular season. Kelce is going to be getting some attention for the Chiefs, one way or the other.
