Travis Kelce’s wingman Ross Travis: Inside NFL players’ bromance as they fly Down Under together for Taylor Swift’s tour after celebrating Super Bowl success in Las Vegas

Ross Travis has made his presence known in Travis Kelce’s circle recently with the couple flying to Australia on a private jet on Wednesday.

Travis posted a photo of the plane with the words ‘Down Under’ written lightly over the window on his Instagram Story. The 31-year-old joins the Chiefs star as he attends Taylor Swift’s Eras tour in Sydney.

Before heading to Australia, Travis was part of the group that joined Kelce in Las Vegas earlier this week. The tight end returned to Sin City more than a week after winning the Super Bowl at Allegiant Stadium to participate in a charity golf tournament.

While in Sin City, Travis posted a video of the views from the Wynn Golf & Country Club where Kelce played. The group also had dinner at a restaurant called Toca Madera in Las Vegas.

Being close friends with Kelce, Travis is no stranger to Swift either.

Travis watched from Kelce’s star-studded suite at Allegiant as the Chiefs won their second straight title. After the Super Bowl, Travis shared a series of photos, including one with the 14-time Grammy winner.

The Penn State tight end went undrafted in 2015 before signing with Kansas City. Playing the same position, Travis built a good relationship with Kelce, who was drafted two years earlier. After two seasons in Kansas City, Travis left and began moving around the NFL.

Travis played two seasons with the Indianapolis Colts before joining the New York Jets in 2019. He then served as a practice player for the Arizona Cardinals, Cleveland Browns and Detroit Lions in 2021 before becoming a free agent.

His time as an active player came to a halt when he tore his ACL against the Cincinnati Bengals in 2018. Days later, he was placed on the Colts’ injured reserve. The following year became a rollercoaster for Travis, as he resigned in February and was released in August, only to return in November.

A month later, Indianapolis waived him and he began his stint as a practice player.

During his five seasons, Travis appeared in 29 games in the NFL. During those games he recorded a total of 14 receptions for 142 yards.

Despite a brief period as teammates, Kelce and Travis appear to have maintained their friendship. Not signed to any team, Travis regularly attends Chiefs games and trains with Kelce.

In addition to their shared love of soccer and supporting Swift abroad, the couple have also enjoyed traveling and attending music festivals together.
