Is Travis Kelce ready to swap touchdowns for toe-taps?

That's the question fans are asking after the Kansas City Chiefs superstar tight end was spotted busting a move with none other than Justin Timberlake in Las Vegas - and now Swifties are convinced he's rehearsing for a whole new gig: backup dancer on Taylor Swift's Eras Tour.

Kelce, 35, is enjoying the NFL offseason in style after the Chiefs fell short of a historic Super Bowl three-peat. While some players hit the gym, Kelce hit the fairway - and the dance floor - ing Timberlake and comedian Andrew Santino for the singer's 8AM Invitational golf event in Sin City.

In a video Kelce posted from the outing, the trio is seen grooving to Midnight Star's Curious, with Kelce turning his golf club into a microphone and delivering some shockingly smooth dance moves.

Swifties were delighted

Timberlake himself reposted the clip to his 72 million followers, joking, "We are just [Kelce's] backup dancers now." Kelce quickly responded in the comments: "The vibes were unmatched!!" And the internet - particularly Taylor Swift fans - went wild.

"I saw that video Justin posted of Travis dancing and singing into his golf club," one fan wrote on X. "I see he's been practicing for your next tour, Taylor. His formal audition is at Kelce Jam."

Another quipped, "@killatrav is a certified backup dancer after the Eras Tour," while a third joked, "Having JT as your backup dancer is such a flex."

Travis' new look

Kelce, who's been dating Swift for nearly two years, recently emerged from what insiders called a "break from the spotlight" with a fresh Vegas look - sporting trimmed facial hair, glasses, and a laid-back vibe.

The Chiefs star tight end even hit the poker tables while continuing to enjoy his offseason downtime before returning to Arrowhead Stadium for what might be his final NFL season. But after this performance, fans are wondering: when the cleats come off, will the dancing shoes go on?

Should Travis Kelce start a second act as a performer?
