For weeks, discussions around Travis Kelce’s future in the NFL haven’t stopped, especially after the Kansas City Chiefs’ 40-22 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl 59.
But today, we take a rare break (for the most part) from the retirement talk and championship heartbreak to focus on something less serious — Kelce’s surprising social media obsession. And no, it has nothing to do with football, Taylor Swift, or viral touchdown celebrations.
Jason and Travis Kelce’s Unusual Video Addiction
During a conversation about online search history and what it reveals about a person, Jason Kelce decided to expose his brother’s most-watched content, and it caught Travis completely off guard.
“Travis has watched over 1,000 hoof-cleaning videos on Instagram,” Jason revealed, prompting immediate hysterical laughter from the Chiefs tight end.
“Dude, they’re so addicting,” Travis admitted, still laughing.
Jason, still baffled by the fascination, pressed on.
“Seems a little too simple for me. I mean, how many times are you gonna watch a guy scrape a hoof off, stuff it with powder, pack it, and wrap it?”

Despite his strange “addiction,” Travis stood firm in his fascination, saying he’s hooked on watching the oddly satisfying videos. Meanwhile, Jason admitted even he had trouble skipping them when they popped up in his feed.
“I don’t think I’ve passed it up once on my algorithm,” the former Eagles center confessed.

Travis Kelce’s fascination with hoof-cleaning videos is just one example of a growing trend on social media. In recent years, videos of people doing everyday jobs, whether it’s cleaning hooves, power-washing sidewalks, or making sushi, have exploded in popularity. There’s something satisfying about watching skilled professionals work, and as Kelce said, it’s easy to get hooked.
Travis Kelce Confirms Return for 2025 NFL Season
Despite retirement rumors, Travis Kelce made one thing clear: he’s not done yet. The four-time Super Bowl champion shut down any doubt about his return with a passionate statement.
“I think the biggest thing is that I f****** love playing the game,” Kelce said emphatically.
“I still feel like I can play at a high level and possibly at a higher level than I did last year,” Kelce added. “I don’t think it was my best outing, you know? I think I let my guys down in many more moments than I helped them, especially if you look at my track record and how I’ve been in years past.”
With unfinished business and another shot at a ring, Kelce is ready to run it back. And while his Instagram feed may be full of hoof-cleaning clips, his focus is locked on one thing — getting the Chiefs back to the top of the NFL.
