Travis Kelce was spotted on Thursday back in New York City, returning to the spotlight with a rare pH๏τoshoot during his extended downtime with girlfriend Taylor Swift.

The Super Bowl winner was seen filming a commercial sporting a white sweater, khaki pants, white shoes and sunglᴀsses, completing the suave look for the Kansas City Chiefs star. 

Kelce carried around a camouflage tote bag while a vintage luxury Chevrolet Chevelle SS appeared in the background during the Manhattan job. 

The housing and sidewalk behind Kelce speak to the area of the Tribeca neighborhood where Kelce’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift, has her New York residence. There was no sign of Swift, but Kelce’s sighting is notable amid their ongoing period out of the spotlight together.

Kelce and Swift were last seen in ‘The Big Apple’ together several weeks ago, sneaking into Del Frisco’s Grille in downtown Manhattan in March.

Kelce may have an extended period in New York as the MET Gala takes place on Monday with him and Swift potentially resurfacing as possible attendees at one of the biggest nights in fashion of the year.

Saturday is also the Kentucky Derby, with Kelce attending the biggest American horse race of the year in 2024.

There would not be much stopping him from taking a plane to Louisville and doing the same this year and then making it back for the MET gala with time to spare. 

Swift and Kelce have frequented New York City as one of their favorite date spots during their relationship, also coming to the area for last year’s US Open men’s final, alongside friends Patrick and Brittany Mahomes.

The quartet watched as Jannik Sinner defeated American Taylor Fritz before going out to a swanky Mediterranean dinner.

In 2025, though, Kelce has kept a lower profile. In March, he enjoyed dinner with Swift in New York and travelled to Montana for a skiing trip.

Recent reports suggested that Kelce believes the circus surrounding his relationship caused a dip in his performances on the field.

It’s claimed he wanted a breather from all the attention and last week Kelce was on the training field away from prying eyes.

The 35-year-old is looking to bounce back from February’s Super Bowl LIX loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, after which he contemplated retiring from the NFL.

Kelce decided to continue his career for at least one more season and, as reported by the Daily Mail, he won’t let his girlfriend’s fame get in the way.

‘Travis is going all in for this season and the only thing that could derail him would be injury. Losing the Super Bowl was a major blow, as he wants to be someone that can have it all and one who can handle having it all,’ a source said.

‘[The couple] don’t have to be the center of attention anymore and are going to often not be seen out and about as much as they have been… his on field play needs to improve, and he knows that.’
