Travis Kelce’s whirlwind stretch between the Chiefs’ Super Bowl win in February and the start of their 2024 campaign has now included a trip to the Kentucky Derby.
Kelce, who appeared to be attending without girlfriend Taylor Swift, donned a suit and fedora ahead of the 150th edition of the race Saturday at Churchill Downs that saw Mystik Dan win in a photo finish.
In a video posted on Instagram, the star tight end was seen getting excited during the running of one of the races on Saturday.
He — and Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers — also attended the Sports Illustrated “Revel at the Races” party Friday night at The Ice House that featured a performance from The Chainsmokers, according to The Courier-Journal.
Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco, center Creed Humphrey and offensive lineman Mike Caliendo attended the Trifecta Gala on Friday in Louisville, according to the Kansas City Star.

While it’s unclear if Swift will join Kelce before the main race’s post time at 6:57 p.m. on Saturday, her Eras Tour resumes Thursday with a concert in Paris, France.
Former NBA forward Chandler Parsons had hinted at Kelce’s appearance during a segment Friday on the “Up & Adams” show, adding it would “be fun.”
Last weekend, Swift and Kelce attended Patrick Mahomes’ 15 and the Mahomies Foundation Golf Classic gala in Las Vegas, and Kelce said during an episode of the “New Heights” podcast with his brother, Jason, that he had an “absolute blast.”
Earlier this week, the U.S. Sun reported that Kelce and Swift were also expected to join Mahomes and his wife, Brittany, at the Formula One Miami Grand Prix on Sunday afternoon — though it’s unclear if those plans have changed given Kelce’s appearance at the Kentucky Derby.
Mahomes and his wife partied in Miami on Friday, according to the Kansas City Star, and they were shown arriving Saturday afternoon at Hard Rock Stadium and walking toward a space marked for the Alpine Formula One racing team.
Kelce and Mahomes, along with golfer Rory McIlroy and others, invested in Alpine in October, though the racing team hasn’t earned a point in the driver standings this year.
But for Saturday, at least, Kelce, who recently signed a two-year extension worth $34.5 million to become the NFL’s highest-paid tight end, will watch the Kentucky Derby.
