Just when you thought the internet had moved on from body debates, Travis Kelce reignited the conversation — this time, with his back hair.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end is no stranger to going viral, but it wasn’t a touchdown or sweet moment with Taylor Swift that got people talking this week. Nope.
It was a sweaty gym session in Florida… and a seriously hairy situation.
The Viral Workout Moment That Got Everyone Buzzing
Travis has been grinding through a tough offseason training camp in Miami, possibly prepping for what might be his final NFL season.
But when he peeled off his shirt after a workout, the moment got snapped by photographers — and suddenly, the internet couldn’t stop staring.
The reason? Let’s just say the “Big Yeti” nickname really checks out.
His back and chest, covered in thick hair, became the talk of the timeline.
While some fans were taken aback, others fully embraced the look — sparking a mix of praise, confusion, and a few “I can’t unsee this” jokes.
Social Media Has Strong Reactions — And Taylor Swift Is in the Middle of It
As the pics made the rounds, fans didn’t hold back.
One user asked, “Taylor Swift is okay with that?” while another laughed, “Travis Kelce is hairy as s***. I like a hairy man but sir.”
Some weren’t thrilled to get an unexpected eyeful, with one writing, “Please, I don’t want to see Travis Kelce’s hairy back any more,” and another quipping, “Wish I could unsee those pictures.”
But not everyone was turned off. In fact, plenty of Swifties showed up to defend their girl’s guy.
One fan gushed, “His hairy back is perfect just like he is,” and another boldly called him a “sexy man” who should wear his body hair with pride.
Kelce Owns His Hairy Reputation With Humor
If you think the man himself is bothered by the buzz, think again.
Travis addressed the viral moment with his usual charm on his New Heights podcast, joking that he was “wearing two shirts” because of all the body hair.
“I’m a furry son of a b****,” he laughed.
And that nickname? It actually dates back to his college days at the University of Cincinnati.
His brother, Jason Kelce, gave the backstory: “Trav would play a lot of pickup basketball and whenever they did shirts and skins, everyone would call him ‘Big Yeti’.”
Travis chimed in: “It’s just a big ole Yeti out there, man.”
Even Other NFL Stars Are Weighing In
The chatter didn’t stay limited to fans. NFL quarterback Kirk Cousins even cracked a joke about the photos in an interview with E! News, saying, “God bless Taylor Swift for being good with that! That’s awesome… good for her!”
Clearly, Kelce’s back hair has become a talking point that’s reached beyond just pop culture and sports Twitter — it’s full-blown mainstream now.
A Quieter Summer for Travis and Taylor
The buzz around Kelce’s body comes during a relatively low-key summer for him and Taylor Swift.
Compared to last year — when the couple was frequently spotted on date nights in New York, Kansas City, and just about everywhere — things have been more private in 2025.
They’ve kept a low profile, possibly enjoying some quiet before Swift ramps up her next big project or Kelce gears up for another demanding NFL season.
Either way, even when they’re out of sight, it seems they’re never far from the spotlight.
