Before he started dating Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce was one of the NFL’s most popular players and a shoe-in to make the Hall of Fame.
In the 12 months since having the ‘Anti-Hero’ singer on his arm, Kelce has skyrocketed to become one of the most famous people on the planet. Even with Kelce’s gridiron dominance, he will turn 35 in the middle of the upcoming NFL season, where he will be an integral part of a possible Kansas City Chiefs three-peat.
There is no doubt Kelce is in the back-half of his NFL career, and based on how he is positioning himself outside football, he knows it too. He has an estimated wealth of $40million but he’s working hand to grow that number significantly. Here is how Kelce is building up a portfolio worth millions off the field to where he can stay as successful as he is now.
Travis and Jason Kelce’s ‘New Heights’ podcast Before Swift came into Kelce’s life in a romantic way, he started hosting a podcast with fellow future NFL Hall of Famer and older brother Jason Kelce.
The first ‘New Heights’ episode dropped in 2022 and has consistently gained viewership since. It was on ‘New Heights’ where Travis said he tried to give Swift his number after an ‘Eras Tour’ show in Kansas City. Since then, football fans and Swifties alike have made ‘New Heights’ one of the biggest podcasts in the world.
Last month, it was reported that the Kelce brothers were in talks Amazon-owned podcast network Wondery about potentially securing a $100million agreement for their weekly program. Possibly taking ‘New Heights’ on the road has also been discussed as a possibility.
Kelce’s successful music festival drawing bigger names The tight end’s music festival, ‘Kelce Jam’, was a one-off event this year in the Kansas City area with headliners Lil Wayne and Diplo making it successful.
In future years, the plan is for the extravaganza to go on the road with eyes on holding shows in Indianapolis, Chicago, New Orleans, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Cleveland and Miami. Kelce would not have to look far for advice on how to make a concert successful. If only he was dating someone who could sell out a concert anywhere on planet Earth…
