Travis Kelce has been warned by Jon “Stugotz” Weiner, who believes it’s a matter of time before fans turn against him for his off-field exploits.
Kelce has struggled for form in recent weeks and admitted on his New Heights podcast on Wednesday that his form was “bugging” him after the Chiefs lost to his brother’s team, the Philadelphia Eagles, on Monday night.
This comes against the backdrop of his newfound fame with Taylor Swift, an extensive interview with the Wall Street Journal this week and appearances in a series of television commercials.
Stugotz, who described himself as a “good friend” of Kelce, publicly criticized him for his off-field activities on The Dan Le Batard Show.
“I have a message for Travis Kelce, Dan, because he’s a friend of mine and I’m telling you right now, he doesn’t know this is going to happen, but it’s going to happen soon,” he said.

“They show highlights of Jason Kelce pulling and making blocks, and when I’m a center, I sit at home and say, ‘Hey, I do this every Sunday and no one shows it for me.’
“Back to Travis – I’m telling you, it’s coming.” Chiefs fans will be lashing out at him on sports radio for not being as focused as he has been in years past. He’s one of the leaders of the team, one of the captains of the team, everyone will criticize him and say you’ve lost focus.
“They’re getting mad at Travis Kelce. “He doesn’t see it coming, he’s new to the game, I’m already telling him it’s coming.”
Stugotz was asked about his “new to the game” remark since Kelce is 34 years old and a two-time Super Bowl winner, but continued, “That’s different.”
“There are families meeting in suites even if the Swifts didn’t show up (against the Eagles). “He’s not focused on football. He does a million commercials.
“He is a good friend. It’s just a warning to Travis, my friend, that it’s coming unless you pull yourself together and focus on football again. That’s all I’m saying.
