Travis Kelce enters the 2024 NFL season with a striking new haircut, and fans have brutally criticized his controversial look.
Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs will kick off the new season against the Baltimore Ravens at Arrowhead on Thursday night, with Andy Reid’s team aiming for a historic three-peat after winning a second straight Super Bowl last season.
It promises to be a dramatic night in Kansas City, where Taylor Swift will be on hand to see her man Travis in action.
And before kickoff, fans were stunned when Kelce emerged from the tunnel sporting a new haircut with bangs.
Fans online brutally mocked Travis Kelce for his controversial new haircut
As the legendary tight end warmed up on the field, X-ers mocked him for his “terrible” new style, earning him comparisons to Las Vegas Raiders owner Mark Davis.
One wrote: ‘Travis Kelce went to the barbershop and said, “Just fuck with me, dude.”
Another posted about Kelce’s new haircut: ‘I can’t control my laughter.’
A third referenced the Raiders boss, saying: ‘Travis Kelce here with the Mark Davis cut.’
“A brutal haircut for Travis Kelce ahead of the new season,” commented a fourth.
“This haircut is really terrible,” said another before adding, “but he has Taylor and none of us do, so there’s that.”
A fifth comment: “We’re not sure who will win tonight’s game, but we do know that Travis Kelce’s haircut lost.”
“From the Super Bowl to the bowl cut,” another joked.
While one simply concluded: “The barber played him a dirty trick.”

Kelce came under fire for his new haircut with some wild posts on X on Thursday night.
Teammate Patrick Mahomes recently claimed Kelce’s new style was thanks to his girlfriend Taylor Swift, who was photographed arriving at Thursday night’s game.
Kelce, whose representatives were forced to deny he and Swift have plans to split this week after a fake “contract” surfaced on social media, is entering his 12th season with the Chiefs in 2024.
At the age of 34, Patrick Mahomes believes his teammate is now being influenced by his girlfriend in the style department.
Mahomes said of Kelce in a recent interview with NFL Radio: “You’ve got the old guy (Kelce). I’ve been trying to get him to grow his hair out and all of a sudden Taylor does it.”
Swift attended all four of Kansas City’s playoff wins last season in different cities, wearing a No. 87 bomber jacket designed by fellow NFL WAG Kristin Juszczyk during the wild-card game against the Miami Dolphins.
The pop megastar was spotted arriving at Arrowhead on Thursday night in a stunning denim outfit, before taking a seat in the Kelces’ private suite alongside Travis’ dad, Ed.
