As of April 2024, Travis Kelce’s new contract made him the highest-paid tight end in the NFL with a 2-year contract worth $34.25 million – But that’s only a portion of the 35-year-old’s net worth.

Outside of football, the Ohio-born athlete’s other endeavors have kept him quite comfortable, though not quite as wealthy as his billionaire girlfriend Taylor Swift. Here are some of the other ways he’s made his fortune, which is estimated by Forbes to total about $52 million.

Catching Kelce

Before Travis and Taylor became a power couple, the tight end’s love life was the subject of a reality show on E! called Catching Kelce, in which women competed to win his heart. Though his exact salary from the project is unknown, Travis mentioned on The Pivot Podcast that the show, which he initially didn’t want to do, gave him the opportunity to earn six figures “in like two weeks.”

New Heights

Travis and Jason Kelce started their podcast, New Heights, in September 2022, and it was a meteoric success — so much so that when they signed a new podcast deal in August, it was for $100 million. No wonder Jason’s wife Kylie Kelce decided to get into the podcasting game herself.

Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity?

Travis hosts the new game show, Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity?, which began airing in October. Apparently, the football star’s contract for the hosting gig was written up before dating Taylor raised his already high profile. He earned “only” $750k for the project, according to The Daily Mail. If there’s a second season, perhaps his salary will net higher.

Grotesquerie

According to MSN, Travis was paid $100,000 for each episode of Grotesquerie in which he appeared, totalling around a million dollars.

Endorsements

According to Sportskeeda, Travis earned $30 million in endorsements over 2024. His brand deals include McDonald’s, Tide, Dick’s Sporting Goods, and many more.
