Travis Kelce isn’t just “the guy on the Chiefs” — he’s “the guy on the screen” too.
The Kansas City Chiefs player made his acting debut in Wednesday’s official trailer for Ryan Murphy’s “Grotesquerie” series, out later this month.
“Check out the trailer for FX’s Grotesquerie,” the athlete, 34, said while introducing the clip. “That’s right, you might see some familiar faces.”
In the footage, which primarily features the show’s star Niecy Nash as Detective Lois Tyron, Kelce speaks one line at what appears to be a diner.
“There’s no future after this,” the NFL star says.
He appears to be wearing a white button-up shirt and a blazer in the scene, swapping that ensemble out for a white T-shirt, a chain and a hoop earring in another brief glimpse.

Throughout the trailer, Nash’s character investigates “hellish” and “unhuman” murders — seemingly with the help of a “nun who’s a journalist covering crime …[regarding] rituals, cults and their place in American life.”
She says, “This killer is someone who knows anatomy. The blood, the DNA — was left there for us to find. … It’s like God left the keys to the candy store to the devil.”
News broke in May that Kelce had been cast in the FX show.
Nash, 54, celebrated his role at the time by posting on-set videos dancing with the “Catching Kelce” alum.
“Don’t be fooled by the video,” the actress wrote via Instagram. “We are working hard for @ryanmurphyproductions In between shots is another story.”
“Grotesquerie” marks one of Kelce’s many projects outside Missouri’s Arrowhead Stadium since he began dating Taylor Swift in the summer of 2023.
Kelce will make his hosting debut on “Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?” on Amazon Prime Video in October.
Adam Sandler also confirmed on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” last month that Kelce will make a cameo in “Happy Gilmore 2.”
The first two episodes of “Grotesquerie” premiere on FX Wednesday, Sept. 25, at 10 p.m.
