Travis Kelce brought back the ‘stache to start the 2024 NFL season, and not many people are happy about it.
Travis Kelce recently stepped out rocking a mustache for the Kansas City Chiefs’ Thursday night matchup against the Baltimore Ravens.
While the Chiefs’ star tight end has long been considered a beard guy, he walked onto Arrowhead Stadium field to start the 2024 season with a terrible-looking mustache.
Fans got one look at it and proceeded to roast his life away.

Last season, Travis Kelce did the same thing but eventually grew out the mustache into his more usual manicured beard.
It might be a good luck thing, as the team would go on to win the Super Bowl this past February.
The 34-year-old is now giving yet another glimpse into his wild mustache before he ultimately grows everything back.
Travis Kelce Says He’s ‘Having Fun’ with His Facial Hair
Travis Kelce loves his facial hair even if nobody else does.
On Wednesday, during the season 3 premiere episode of the New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce podcast, Travis spoke on the return of his lack of facial hair.
“I always do the Andy Reid special, baby,” the Kansas City Chiefs tight end said while referencing his team’s head coach.
“I grew out the hair, though. I switched it up … I don’t [have] the buzz cut,” Travis added of previously sporting a shorter ‘do.
“I’m not a Super Trooper, I’m more … kind of like a different character with the ‘stache,” he added.
Travis Kelce continued, “But, yeah, just having some fun with it. And while I’m at training camp, I really don’t care how I look. I just want to be there and try and make it the most enjoyable experience ever.”
Kelce previously stated that his lack of facial hair is specifically for when he doesn’t “have any paid appearances, or I’m not subject to doing anything where I have to team up with a company and look presentable.”
