Travis Kelce - English
The tight end position has always been important in football, but it has never been the sexiest. That is, until Rob Gronkowski and Travis Kelce came along. Arguably the two best to ever do it at the position, they both showed – along with Tony Gonzalez and a few others – that tight ends could be the centerpiece of their offense. Yet the position still didn’t get enough love.
That led to Kelce, alongside Greg Olsen and George Kittle, founding “Tight End University“. It’s a short program designed to bring tight ends from various corners of the football world together, in order to bond and learn from each other. In 2025, it’s back for a fifth year, and the party has already gotten started. In fact, all three of them welcomed all of the attendees with a special event early this week.
Travis Kelce and George Kittle get the party started at Tight End University
While on stage, Kelce finds out that there will be IVs available, so he implores the attendees to “drink up” with no consequence. While that would surely bring about a fun time, it could also lead to bad decisions. Kelce then turned to some better advice, instead.
“No, don’t be afraid to shake some hands, meet everybody. This event is so unique because you get to see everybody outside the face mask, man. So don’t be afraid to ask questions, meet everybody and let’s have some fun tonight, baby!“
Kelce flashed his trademark personality, delivering an electric “woo!” at the end of his short speech. Kittle had started off with his own speech, welcoming everyone to the even in Nashville and thanking them for coming.
Kittle made it known that there was an early workout happening the next day, but that the attendees were free to drink as much beer as they wanted. Thankfully, Kittle confirmed the presence of IVs. It seems like most of everyone made it to the workout in the end.

Kyrie Irving to sign $119 million extension with Mavericks after declining player option, per report
Kyrie Irving is declining his $42.9 million player option for the 2025-26 season with the Dallas Mavericks and instead is planning to sign a three-year, $119 million extension with the franchise, per ESPN's Shams Charania. The deal includes a player option for 2027-28.That new deal can't be officially agreed upon until July 6. With Irving expected to miss a significant chunk of the 2025-26 season recovering from a torn ACL, it makes sense he was interested in getting long-term security with his new deal. For the Mavericks, they're able to slightly lower Irving's annual salary to help their cap situation while keeping Irving around for their hopeful bounce back as a contender with a team built around Irving, Anthony Davis and Cooper Flagg, who the team is expected to select with the No. 1 pick in the NBA Draft on Wednesday […]

Jayden Daniels will be even better in 2025, says Commanders RB who foresees ‘powerhouse’ season ahead
Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels exceeded expectations in his first year as a pro en route to an NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year selection, and his career trajectory suggests a stellar sophomore year could be on the horizon. Running back Austin Ekeler said as much after OTAs and minicamp when he noted Daniels' development, and in turn, he predicted a "powerhouse" year for the Commanders on offense.Anything greater than the 3,568 passing yards and 891 rushing yards Daniels logged as a rookie would cement the LSU product as one of the top quarterbacks in the NFL, regardless of age. It would also affirm the Commanders as an elite offensive team after they ranked fifth in scoring and seventh in yardage a year ago."He's starting to get more comfortable, which allows him to even play mentally faster and make better […]
