Travis Kelce's Acting Success Not Tied to Taylor Swift, Says Sinqua Walls


Travis Kelce's acting career has been gaining momentum over the past year, but according to actor Sinqua Walls, it's not because of his relationship with Taylor Swift. Walls, best known for his role in "Friday Night Lights" and the "White Men Can't Jump" remake, spoke to TMZ Sports, crediting Kelce's success to his natural talent and NFL stardom.

While many believe Swift has boosted Kelce's visibility, Walls disagrees. He emphasizes that Kelce, a three-time Super Bowl champion, already had a strong profile due to his achievements alongside teammate Patrick Mahomes. Walls believes this exposure has opened doors for Kelce in Hollywood.

Kelce’s entertainment career began in 2016 with the dating show "Catching Kelce" and has included appearances in "Moonbase 8" and hosting "Saturday Night Live" earlier in 2023, all before his relationship with Swift became public. Walls believes Kelce's charisma and on-field success have helped him transition smoothly into acting.

Walls concluded that it's entirely possible for athletes to become successful actors, and Kelce’s talent is what’s driving his current success.
