Travis Kelce was all smiles at Chiefs practice on Saturday as his team prepares for a crucial NFL game against the Las Vegas Raiders on Christmas Day.
The tight end was seen smiling in a photo shared by the team on X as they tried to maintain their return to winning ways after beating the Patriots last weekend.
Kelce's girlfriend Taylor Swift is expected to be on hand to cheer on Kelce at Arrowhead Stadium on Christmas Day, with the couple believed to be spending the holiday at his $6 million mansion in Kansas City.
And it really could be a day to remember for the Chiefs hero as he approaches a new record for the season.
The 34-year-old is just 76 yards shy of another 1,000-yard season.

And if he succeeds, he'll extend his record of having the most 1,000+ yard seasons among tight ends by eight, doubling his lead over the next few.
That would also move him into a tie for eighth all-time among all pass catchers in NFL history.
Kelce passed 11,000 yards in his career earlier this season, giving him a total of 11,268, which ranks him 38th all-time and fourth among active players.
All of this comes despite Kelce missing the first game of the season due to injury.
If Kelce falls short on Monday, his next opportunity will also be at Arrowhead on New Year's Eve when the Chiefs host the Bengals.
The Chiefs then wrap up the regular season on the road against the Chargers.
In the bonus episode of his New Heights podcast with brother Jason, released Friday, Kelce said he likes to play a game on Christmas Day.
'I absolutely love it man. It's magical. “That's one thing Christmas does, it brings people together and what better way to enjoy Christmas than playing football at Arrowhead Baby?” the tight end said.
'That game will be electric. There are many people who know that their family is watching at home and we are the first game on the air that day.
'So we are looking forward to it and know that there is a big challenge ahead of us. And we always like to say, it's up to us… we're still working on being the best version of ourselves on the field.”
