Caitlin Clark has never limited her sporting interests to the hardwood. The Indiana Fever guard and two-time All-Star keeps a close eye on the NFL and reacted to a major league update.
Clark is currently rehabbing this offseason after a grueling 2025 WNBA campaign. Three separate injuries limited the former Iowa Hawkeyes star to just 13 games.
Even so, she dazzled when healthy, averaging 16.5 points, 8.8 assists and 5.0 rebounds per game.
The Fever finished the regular season 24-20 and made a remarkable playoff run, advancing to the semifinals.
Off the court, Clark’s star power has drawn her into orbit with some of the biggest names in sports and entertainment.
WNBA: Caitlin Clark reacts to Travis Kelce returning to Kansas City Chiefs
One of the biggest storylines of the NFL offseason centered on Travis Kelce’s future. Retirement talks loomed large for the 36-year-old tight end as he headed into unrestricted free agency for the first time in his career.
The Chiefs kept Kelce in Kansas City, signing him to a one-year deal worth $12 million, with a maximum value of $15 million.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter broke the news Monday morning. Clark, a Chiefs fan, reposted the announcement on her Instagram Stories.
The post read: “Breaking: Travis Kelce is expected to return for his 14th season with the Kansas City Chiefs, according to NFL Network. The 3X Super Bowl champ is BACK.”

Clark’s connection to Kelce runs deeper than just fandom. The Des Moines native is also a self-described Swiftie. She first met Kelce’s fiancée, pop superstar Taylor Swift, at the Eras Tour, and their friendship blossomed.
Swift and Kelce invited Clark to watch a Chiefs game live. The Fever star sat side-by-side with Swift in a suite during the AFC Divisional Playoff game against the Houston Texans in January 2025.
With Kelce back in Kansas City, another suite appearance at Arrowhead Stadium could be on the horizon for the Fever star.
