Travis Kelce credits his “magic” mustache for the Kansas City Chiefs’ winning streak.
The tight end, 35, has grown out his facial hair before NFL training camp over the last couple of seasons, three of which resulted in Super Bowl wins.
Given the success, Kelce told People he has no plans on shaving his Andy Reid-inspired ‘stache anytime soon.
Although it started as a “funny” joke, the superstitious star was forced to “keep the tradition alive” since they kept winning.
“There’s always magic to the stache,” he said. “There’s an aura around it. It just brings success.”
The Chiefs won the Super Bowl in 2020, 2023 and 2024. With a 7-0 start to the ongoing season, the team is gunning to earn their third consecutive title come February 2025.
Although the athlete typically starts the year with a ‘stache, it usually morphs into a full “rugged” beard by the end of the year.
While Kelce does his best to maintain his upper lip, the “Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?” host admits it doesn’t compare to Reid’s facial fringe.
“He is the walrus!” Kelce said of the legendary coach. “He’s got that thing looking beautiful every single day.”
In July 2024, the NFL star returned to training camp with his signature ‘stache after rocking a well-manicured beard for most of the off-season.
When asked about the switch-up on his hit “New Heights” podcast, Kelce replied, “Well I always do the Andy Reid special, baby.”
Although the athlete resorted back to his typical training camp look, he “switched it up” and debuted a new Taylor Swift-approved hairstyle.
“I don’t got the buzz cut,” he said. “I’m not as super trooper.”
Kelce said his longer locks made him feel “kind of like a different character with the ‘stache.”
“While I’m at training camp, I really don’t care how I look,” he noted. “I just to want to be there and try to make it the most enjoyable experience ever.”
