Travis Kelce has had some awesome opportunities throughout his NFL career. First and foremost, he's the tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, who have been to five of the last six Super Bowls and won three of them. His podcast with his brother, former Eagles center Jason Kelce, has skyrocketed in popularity since Travis' relationship with Taylor Swift went public nearly two years ago.
The New Heights Podcast was already doing pretty dang well before Kelce and Swift's relationship went public, but you can imagine how much more popular it became after the fact. The Kelce brothers have had some big names on their podcast, including Caitlin Clark, Patrick Mahomes, Eli Manning, Peyton Manning, Andy Reid, and Arnold Schwarzenegger, to name a few.
When recently discussing his podcast with another podcast, Bussin' With The Boys' Will Compton and Taylor Lewan, Kelce revealed the person that he's been dying to get on his show.
"Man, I want to get Deion Sanders on so bad," Kelce said. "'I want to talk to him about the football and baseball world that he was in in the late '80s, early '90s, and just chop it up... I played every sport imaginable growing up, and I always wanted to be one of those guys that played both, a two-sport professional athlete."
Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce wants Deion Sanders as a guest on his "New Heights" podcast
For those who might not know who Sanders is, he played in both the NFL and MLB, and even played in both leagues on one day.
There's a great 30 For 30 documentary called "Deion's Double-Play", which goes into detail about Sanders playing in a regular-season game for the Atlanta Falcons before catching a flight to Pittsburgh to play in a postseason game for the Atlanta Braves.
Sanders currently coaches the Colorado Buffaloes, a college football team in the Big 12. His son, Shedeur Sanders, was the talk of the 2025 NFL Draft when he went from being perceived as a first-rounder to plummeting all the way to the fifth round.
While there would likely be some questions about Shedeur and what he can bring to the Kelces' hometown Cleveland Browns, it makes sense that Kelce would want to have Deion on to ask him about his days of playing both football and baseball in the 90s.
It wouldn't be crazy to imagine Deion appearing on the podcast, and now we know that if it happens, it'll be a dream come true for Travis Kelce.
