Travis Kelce was mic’d up for his homecoming game between Kansas City Chiefs and Cleveland Browns on Sunday – and while his team won, the tight end didn’t have it all his own way.

The Chiefs beat the Browns 21-7 with Kelce taking four receptions for 27 yards as his team extended their winning record to 13-1.

The 35-year-old was clearly loving playing back in his home city, judging by the ‘Mic’d Up’ video the Chiefs shared on Wednesday. But he had one sobering moment in quick exchange with fellow tight end Noah Gray.

The duo were filmed on the sideline together in the latter stages of the game with the Chiefs on the brink of recording another win.

‘You’ve got the whites coming in, dude,’ Gray said to Kelce about his hair. ‘You’re getting old.’

Kelce, for his part, took the comments on the chin.

‘Hell yeah baby, let it come in,’ Kelce said. ‘I can’t wait.’

It isn’t the first time Kelce has received some scrutiny from his Chiefs teammates about his hair.

Earlier this year, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes said Kelce was growing his hair out because of the influence of his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.

As part of a wider answer about his team in an interview with NFL Radio before the season started, Mahomes said: ‘You got the old man (Kelce). I’ve been trying to get him to grow his hair out and all of a sudden, Taylor gets him to do it.’

Kelce has grown his hair out this year, a different style to the buzz cut that he has been known for.

Speaking about the Browns game on New Heights this week, Kelce said he thinks it could be the last time he gets to play in Cleveland.

‘It felt so surreal,’ Kelce said to his brother Jason. ‘I don’t know if it’s the last time I’ll play in Cleveland but it kinda felt like I was giving it one last hoorah before I’m done because I’ve only played there twice in 12 years.

‘It was a special day for me personally.’
