Travis Kelce traded in his red jersey for a gladiator suit and put his acting skills to the test in a new commercial for Pepsi.
In the three-minute ad, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end is joined by fellow footballers Josh Allen, Derrick Henry and Justin Jefferson for a Gladiator II-inspired showdown that sees the three NFL stars ready to take on a tiger as Megan Thee Stallion performs her version of Queen‘s timeless classic “We Will Rock You.”
As the Grammy-winning artist raps from a platform above the Colosseum, the trio of athletes entertain onlookers–including actors Jake Lacy and Lamorne Morris–and work together to distract and defeat the wild animal, eventually trapping the tiger in a pit and celebrating with the rapper and an ice-cold can of Pepsi as the amphitheater transforms into a football stadium.
“Are you not entertained?” Kelce quipped.
Fans were more than entertained, applauding the three-time Super Bowl champ for his talent onscreen and ability to rock anything he puts on.
“Travis Kelce as a gladiator?” one wrote of a now-viral screenshot of the 34-year-old dressed in NFL-branded armor. “That should be illegal. 🔥.”

“He is a hoot🤣 and [a] Hottie🔥,” a second joked.
“Well damn!!! 🔥🔥🔥,” another exclaimed.
“I’d love to see Taylor [Swift]’s reaction to this! 😂😍,” a fourth admitted.
While Swifties may never know exactly what the pop superstar thought of Kelce’s new commercial, she was likely very supportive of the endeavor, given his dream of being an on-screen actor and her enthusiasm to bring him on stage to perform alongside her during the European leg of her international Eras Tour.
