Travis Kelce is on track to become the face of the NFL. In a sport where headlines, endorsements and big-money contracts are often associated with quarterbacks, Kelce is breaking the mold. The tight end is receiving a ton of help from his world-renowned girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
Although Kelce has been in the NFL since 2013, his profile received a massive boost after being linked with Swift. Recently, Sportico conducted research to compile a list of the highest-earning players in the NFL, considering both their franchise contracts and off-field earnings from endorsements and other ventures.
Kelce has seen a remarkable 177% increase in his licensing income (per Sportico), largely driven by his association with Swift. In total, he is set to earn $30 million from his off-field activities, the highest by any player as per Sportico.
