The NFL Pro Bowl fan voting period is officially over … and which player got the most love?None other than the Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
The league just shared the results of the voting that ended on December 23rd with … Taylor Swiftmy boyfriend leads 252,200 posts.
Detroit Lions running back Jahmir Gibbs A close 2nd was 250k… and the Washington Commanders rookie Jaden Daniels followed by 242K.
While his victory over Gibbs was only 2,118 votes … it’s fair to speculate whether Kelce’s girlfriend’s fan base played a big part in the outcome, since he didn’t have the best statistical season of his career.
With one week left in the 2024 season, Kelce has caught 97 passes for 823 yards and three touchdowns … meaning he’s on pace to record his second straight season without reaching the 1,000-yard mark.
Being a fan favorite is an honor, but he may miss the event … as the 35-year-old will likely be busy preparing for a third Super Bowl win.
Even if the Chiefs are eliminated from the postseason before the Big Game, he can still opt out of the Pro Bowl if he so chooses, ultimately meaning more time with Tey.
Kelce felt the obvious impact of the Taylor effect last year, as he also finished in the top five in the voting, which, with no shade to tight ends, is unusual for his position.
To be entirely fair, Kelce went third in 2022 … long before Traylor ever did.
But being number one is another story… So here are the perks of dating one of the most famous women on the planet.
