NFL star Travis Kelce has sparked speculation about a potential appearance in the upcoming Happy Gilmore 2 movie, following his public display of a “Happy Gilmore” hat and his well-known admiration for Adam Sandler.
In a recent episode of “New Heights,” Kelce’s brother, Jason, playfully probed him about the rumors, asking, “Whoa! Is that true?” While Kelce didn’t outright confirm or deny the reports, he expressed his enthusiasm for any opportunity to be involved in an Adam Sandler film, even as an extra.
When addressing the conspiracy theory, Kelce acknowledged the lack of substantial evidence but also left the door open for surprises, stating, “Theories can be true, and people just don’t know about it.” He further added, “I might even be in the talking, and nobody knows about it. But I could also not be in the talking.”

During the episode, the Kelce brothers also shared their favorite moments from Sandler’s films, with Travis envisioning himself in various roles from the 1996 original. Whether or not Kelce will make an appearance in the highly anticipated sequel remains to be seen, but his passion for Sandler’s work is undeniable.
