Travis Kelce, a star for the Kansas City Chiefs, has revealed the peculiar reason why his teammates have been making fun of him this NFL season. In the most recent installment of the “New Heights” podcast, Travis Kelce and his brother Jason Kelce answered a fan’s query regarding facial hair, sparking an amusing discussion and some unexpected disclosures. A listener called in during the show to seek for tips on how to express her disapproval of her husband’s clean-shaven appearance. It was a hard situation, Jason Kelce joked. “What you’re really saying is you don’t like the way your husband’s face looks,” he joked. But with his trademark frank humour, Travis Kelce didn’t mince words and delivered some harsh love.
“Tell your hubby that a beard enhances his appearance! Travis Kelce made his argument with a grin, saying, “Don’t let him walk around with a face that hurts your soul.” The topic of discussion then turned to Travis Kelce’s well-known moustache, which has played a significant role in his appearance. Travis Kelce acknowledged that his teammates have made fun of him for having a moustache, but he enjoys the humour.
According to the NFL player, “I’ve been getting cooked all year for having a moustache,” The Chiefs player says it’s all in good humour and is undeterred by the taunting. In addition to making him happy, his moustache honours Coach Andy Reid, whose own moustache has gained notoriety.
The moustache, also referred to as the “Andy Reid special,” has come to represent success for the Chiefs, who have won three Super Bowls since Travis Kelce started sporting one. Travis Kelce revealed to People in October that growing facial hair has become a part of his routine to begin each season. “The stache has a certain mystique. “It leads to success,” Travis Kelce jokingly said. It appears like Travis Kelce’s moustache “magic” is here to stay as the Chiefs continue their winning streak, much to his teammates’ enjoyment.
