Travis Kelce<\/a> and the Kansas City Chiefs<\/a> continued to struggle as the 2025 NFL<\/a> season continues, falling to 6-6 after a 31-28 Week 13 loss to Dak Prescott<\/a> and the Dallas Cowboys<\/a> on Thanksgiving Day. Now, Kelce and the Chiefs will look to remain in the playoff hunt in Week 14, returning home to face the Houston Texans<\/a> on “Sunday Night Football” on Dec. 7.<\/p>\n

Kelce, 36, has remained Patrick Mahomes<\/a>\u2019 favorite target throughout his 13th NFL season. Twelve games in, the former Cincinnati Bearcats tight end has recorded 59 catches for 719 yards and five touchdowns, already surpassing his 2024 touchdown total. And he has been able to do it in his first year as an engaged man, proposing to musician Taylor Swift<\/a> over the offseason.<\/p>\n

While Kelce prepares for his upcoming wedding to his superstar fianc\u00e9e, another well-known football personality is celebrating a different personal milestone. Over the weekend, former Indianapolis Colts<\/a> punter Pat McAfee, now a host on ESPN\u2019s “The Pat McAfee Show” and \u201cCollege GameDay<\/a>,\u201d revealed that his wife of four years, Samantha, is pregnant with their second child, a baby boy due next summer.<\/p>\n

“The path that led us here was filled with needles, hormones, countless appointments, and more emotion than we ever knew two hearts could hold,” McAfee wrote on Instagram. “IVF pushed my body to its limits and stretched our spirits in ways we never expected. It was hope and heartbreak, faith and fear \u2014 all tangled together as we trusted science and prayed for another miracle. And now, with humbled hearts and overwhelming gratitude, we are overjoyed to share that we are expecting a baby boy, arriving June 2026. \ud83d\udc99”<\/p>\n

“\ud83d\udde3\ufe0fLet\u2019s goooo!!! Congratulations!!!” Kelce wrote.<\/p>\n

Kelce and the Chiefs will look to get back above .500 in Week 14, hosting the Texans on Dec. 7, at 8:20 p.m. ET on NBC.<\/p>\n
