Travis Kelce is back in the headlines but this time, it’s not because of Taylor Swift, a Super Bowl win, or his popular podcast. The Kansas City Chiefs star tight end, known for his high-profile relationship and larger-than-life personality, found himself trending again after an old college tweet resurfaced. While Kelce is no stranger to viral moments, this blast from the past reminded fans just how long he’s been entertaining on and off the field.

As millions celebrated Easter, the internet unearthed a tweet Kelce posted back in 2010:

“happy easter to all!!! #SHOUTOUT to Jesus for takin one for the team…..haha”
The post, now deleted, went viral once again, highlighting the unpredictable power of social media archives.
At the time, Kelce was just another college athlete with a casual attitude toward tweeting. Years later, he addressed those early posts on his New Heights podcast, admitting he treated Twitter like a public journal. “I was just using Twitter as, like, a diary,” Kelce joked, adding that he’d love for some of those tweets to disappear forever.
Yet, it’s exactly this unfiltered past that makes Kelce so relatable. Fans have previously chuckled over his misspellings like “squirle” and “Chipolte,” and this Easter tweet only adds to the growing list of Kelce internet gems.
But while Twitter memories trend, Kelce’s focus is firmly on the future.

“I still feel like I can play it at a high level and possibly at a higher level than I did last year,” he said this offseason.
The Chiefs, led by Patrick Mahomes and anchored by Kelce, are preparing for a redemption arc. And while the internet may continue to dig up his college-era antics, it’s clear Kelce is more focused than ever.
