The NFL Pro Bowl is here where fans get to choose the best player of the season. But this year, the name of the winner has disappointed everyone. The tight end of the Kansas City Chiefs, Travis Kelce, has the maximum number of votes across the league but fans are pretty disappointed by it. Travis did not have a very good season on the field this time and yet he topped the charts and the reason for this is pretty simple.
Fans Are Disappointed With Travis Kelce And Taylor Swift
It’s his high profile relationship with the global pop star, Taylor Swift, that has made him top the charts at the Pro Bowl in the 2024 NFL season with a total of 252,000 votes – the highest across the league. While this has not been confirmed, the majority of NFL fans believe it’s young women who consider Taylor to be an idol have now turned voters and helped her boyfriend, the NFL star, Travis win the NFL Pro Bowl this year.
Travis has defeated all the NFL players who performed exceptionally well this season. Jared Goff of the Detroit Lions has managed 225,858 votes, Joe Burrow of the Cincinnati Bengals has managed 239,526 votes, Jayden Daniels of the Washington Commanders has managed 242,352 votes and Jahmyr Gibbs of the Detroit Lions has managed 250,082 votes.
Two of the strongest contenders of the MVP for the 2024 season, Josh Allen of the Buffalo Bills and Lamar Jackson of the Baltimore Ravens are not even on the list of the top players with maximum votes for the 2024 NFL Pro Bowl.
Fans have long speculated that Travis had a jump in his career due to his relationship with the pop star. Away from the NFL Pro Bowl, he has been in the news for the majority of this season due to his relationship. He starred in a thriller drama series and signed a $100 million deal with Amazon’s Wondery this year for his podcast. Fans believe a lot of these things happened in Travis’ life because of the presence of his girlfriend.
Fans Believe Taylor Swift Had An Influence On Travis Kelce’s Career
Neither Travis nor Taylor has addressed this speculation but Travis’ Saturday Night Live colleague Heidi Gardner has recently slammed such claims and spoke about how it’s Travis’ skills that have brought him this far in his career.
While no one can certainly say why Travis managed to win the NFL Pro Bowl this year, it seems like a good start to the year for Travis. Winning the NFL Pro Bowl means that the players will be paid a large sum which they can again negotiate for a better contract with the team next season. Travis is already the highest paid tight end in the NFL so this just gets more interesting now.
