The Kansas City Chiefs will welcome backTravis Kelce for another electrifying season, but the 2025 NFL Draft could unveil the heir to his throne.
Thanks in part to Taylor Swift‘s influence, the future Hall of Fame tight end is locked in, determined to rewrite the ending of last season’s devastating Super Bowl LIX defeat to the Philadelphia Eagles. Kelce’s sights are set on restoring his brilliance and leading the Chiefs to glory.

The Chiefs set their sights on Kelce’s successor
With the NFL Draft looming, the Chiefs are poised to shape their future, seeking fresh talent to strengthen their roster and address critical needs.
It’s no mystery that Kansas City will target tight ends to groom under Travis Kelce, arguably the greatest ever at his position. This forward-thinking move ensures that when Kelce, Taylor Swift‘s other half, hangs up his cleats, the Chiefs have a ready-made replacement.
“On Day 2, the Chiefs could be in the range to select a tight end. A prospect such as Elijah Arroyo of Miami could spend his rookie season learning from future Hall of Famer Travis Kelce, who could retire after the 2025 season,” writes Nate Taylor of The Athletic. “Last season, 71.4 percent of Arroyo’s 35 receptions resulted in a first down or touchdown. His top speed was 21.8 mph. Just six NFL players had a higher max ball-carrier speed in 2024, according to Next Gen Stats.”
“The Chiefs have also spent time getting to know Bowling Green’s Harold Fannin Jr. Fanning set school single-season records for catches (117) and receiving yards (1,555). He was the first consensus All-American in Bowling Green history.”
“With his strong hands and urgent athleticism, Fannin is at his best as a pass catcher and shows a unique feel for creating as a ball carrier,” Brugler wrote. “He is still very young – and it shows, especially in his blocking and route running. Overall, Fannin is somewhat of an unconventional prospect.”
In this draft, the Chiefs have a golden opportunity to snag their next great tight end, setting the stage for a dynamic future alongside Patrick Mahomes at the helm.
