A throwback photo of Jason and Travis Kelce from their college days at the University of Cincinnati is causing a stir online—but not for the reasons you might expect.
Fans aren’t reminiscing about the Kelce brothers’ football days or celebrating their pre-NFL glory. Instead, they’re focusing on an unexpected twist: Travis Kelce’s uncanny resemblance to actor Scott Eastwood, son of legendary Hollywood icon Clint Eastwood.
The viral photo, making waves across social media platforms like X and Instagram, shows the brothers from their Bearcats days, and it’s quickly gaining attention for the surprising look-alike moment. “I typically don’t think they look alike, but in this picture, the resemblance is wild,” one fan remarked. Another added, “Travis looks like Scott Eastwood here. Interesting… iykyk.” Fans flooded the comments with their own takes on how the younger Kelce’s appearance in this throwback photo closely resembles the Hollywood actor’s signature style.
While fans are having fun comparing the two, it’s clear that Travis Kelce’s football journey is far from over. From his early college days to becoming a star tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, Kelce’s career has been well-documented. But this latest viral moment adds a humorous layer to his already larger-than-life persona.
Though his resemblance to Scott Eastwood has captured the internet’s attention, Kelce remains focused on his future in the NFL. After the Chiefs’ tough Super Bowl loss, rumors surfaced about his potential retirement. But Kelce quickly shut them down during an episode of his New Heights podcast, where he confidently declared, “I can’t go out like that,” reassuring fans that he’ll be back for the 2025 season.
This decision has been met with excitement from Chiefs fans who are eager to see their team bounce back next season. And while the football world focuses on Kelce’s return to the field, the internet is busy enjoying these lighter moments of his public profile boost, which, in part, has been fueled by his high-profile relationship with pop superstar Taylor Swift.
As the offseason continues, all eyes remain on Kelce—not just for his performance on the field but for whatever unexpected viral moment might come next. Whether it’s football dominance, Hollywood look-alikes, or social media surprises, Travis Kelce shows no signs of slowing down.
