Travis Kelce is making moves off the football field, and no, it’s not related to Taylor Swift this time. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, who showed glimpses of his previous self in the 26-13 victory over the New Orleans Saints in Week 6, is building himself the ultimate “man cave” at his luxurious Kansas City mansion.
Kelce purchased the property in October 2023, leaving his pocket lighter by $6 million, and now the sprawling estate is getting a major underground upgrade.

He is a decent golfer, and it looks like the Chiefs TE wants to indulge in his hobby even further. That’s why he has started constructing a 396-square-foot underground den to house a state-of-the-art golf simulator. Construction crews aim to lower the basement floor by two-and-a-half feet to accommodate the space for Kelce’s golf simulator.
Travis and his pop star girlfriend frequently spend time at the Kansas City mansion. However, Phase 1 of this grand project, expected to be completed by December, might nudge one of the hottest couples in America to nestle elsewhere for some time, probably Taylor Swift’s $25 million mansion in Los Angeles.
As netizens call it, Kelce’s new man cave will undoubtedly provide plenty of entertainment for his close ones, especially his brother Jason and teammate Patrick Mahomes, who are also golf fanatics. It looks like the Chiefs’ superstar TE is creating his personal paradise to relax.
Travis Kelce’s Brother Takes Credit After Chiefs Win Over Saints
Jason Kelce is no stepping back from taking full credit for the Chiefs’ win over the Saints on Monday night. The former Philadelphia Eagles center and Monday Night Countdown analyst was at Arrowhead Stadium and couldn’t resist joking about his impact on Travis’ performance.
In the latest episode of their New Heights podcast, Jason dubbed himself “Primetime Big Yeti,” claiming his presence was the real game-changer. While fans believe Taylor Swift’s appearance inspired Travis, Jason had a different take:
“Travis came up big — because he had someone special in the stadium, someone that means a lot to him, and he really tries to always perform when they’re there. And that is me!”
Travis, who was somewhat struggling this season, managed 70 receiving yards on nine catches vs. New Orleans.
