Travis Kelce

“I'm not even a big TV guy.”

“I started playing this game in the backyard, I started playing this game in middle school and going to go practice without any fans, without any sounds.”

“It has started becoming a deal that wherever I go, people just want to see me dance. I try and keep it for the end zone, but sometimes you've got to do what you've got to do.”

“As a guy from where I come from, I'm going to holler back if you start yapping away. You talk, you're going to hear me talk.”

“All the negatives, the flags for the personal fouls and silly stuff after the play, that takes a toll. People don't want to be a part of that.”

“I grew up in the '90s loving the basketball sneakers, and that's where fashion really started for me.”

“Nobody puts more expectation on me than myself. That's just the heart of the competitor. That's how I was raised.”

“I'd be OK if we didn't go back out to London ever again... shout out to everybody in London. I loved the fans.”

“Just being able to incorporate other sports into my game has definitely helped me out.”

“The biggest thing in terms of route running for me is knowing what the defense is in, knowing the coverage. Once you know the coverage, now you can start manipulating the defense. You can start to kind of trick them in where you're going to go and where you want to get open.”

“The biggest leap between the NFL and college football is the speed. That's something you hear often. But I think there's more to it than just the speed of the players - there's also the speed with which you have to process information around you.”

“You can kind of just move me around and put me anywhere - whatever the coaches and the guys on this team need me to do.”

“I'm a big '90s basketball fan.”

“I don't understand why women get so frustrated with guys talking to other women, just casual conversation. I don't get it. I've had a problem with that.”

“When I look in my father's eyes, man, I know that I made him proud. As a son, with a father that loves him and believes in him so much, that's the world. It really is.”

“The one thing every NFL defense has in common is that it's sound. No matter where guys move on the field, every single foot of space will be accounted for.”

“I remember it was Dr. Seuss' birthday, and I got to read to the little ones and that was just an awesome experience. I remember when I was a young knucklehead and having that access to an after-school program in my community. It's something that hits home to me and something I wanted to always be a part of.”

“There were times where I feel like I was just out there thinking too much instead of just playing instinctual football. It's definitely something that I've been trying to work on here, just go out there and let it run.”

“You don't really see tight ends out here doing dances in the end zone. But if you see me at night out on the town, I'm having a good time - I'm always dancing. It started in the backyard, not to necessarily showboat - but to be a showman. It's part of how we grew up, how we played the game, and now that I'm in the NFL, why not break it out?”

“I've played 'Madden' my entire life and all of the guys in the 90s I idolized growing up.”
