Chiefs’ Travis Kelce enjoys star-studded Brazil moment with Odell Beckham Jr. and Neymar ahead of opener

The Kansas City Chiefs are kicking off their 2025 NFL season in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and tight end Travis Kelce is already stealing headlines — not for a touchdown, but for rubbing shoulders with global icons. Ahead of Friday night’s season opener against the Los Angeles Chargers, Kelce was spotted alongside Odell Beckham Jr. and Brazilian soccer sensation Neymar, creating a buzz both on the field and across social media.While the Chiefs are focused on defending their AFC dominance, Travis Kelce found time to soak in the international atmosphere. A video posted by the team showed Kelce greeting Beckham with a handshake and joking, “C’mon now, dawg,” as Neymar stood nearby. The sight of three megastars from different sports instantly went viral, highlighting how the NFL’s global push has created unique cultural moments.For Beckham, who is currently a free agent, Brazil has been a welcome backdrop. He has been spending time with Neymar, who is taking short breaks from his club commitments with Santos FC. Despite rumors of retirement swirling in August, Beckham shut down speculation in his signature style, firing back on X: “LOL WTF… when was that announced and by who? That’s funny, appreciate the concerns but this Shxt ain’t over yet.” He doubled down with, “Not done yet… thanks for hr concerns and have a blessed day.”This game marks just the second NFL matchup in Brazil after last year’s historic debut. For the Chiefs, it’s more than just a spectacle — it’s a chance to reassert their championship ambitions. The team fell short of a Super Bowl three-peat last season, losing to the Philadelphia Eagles, but with Patrick Mahomes and Kelce still at the core, expectations remain sky-high.Kelce may not post the same jaw-dropping numbers he once did, but his chemistry with Mahomes remains unmatched. A fourth Super Bowl ring would only cement his legacy further. For now, though, he seems perfectly content savoring Brazil — and the company of Beckham and Neymar — before the real battle begins on the field.Also Read: Christian McCaffrey shrugs off injury talk but uncertainty remains over star running back’s Week 1 status for 49ers
