On Wednesday, August 27, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 35, took to Instagram to share a promotional video for the new line. “Excited to finally share what we’ve been cookin’ up,” Kelce captioned the post. “We had so much fun creating this collection and we can’t wait to see y’all rockin it.”
The campaign features fellow athletes Suni Lee, Kiyan Anthony, Anna Frey, Azzi Fudd, Drew Allar and Jeremiah Smith.
In an interview with Esquire, Kelce — who served as the Creative Director and was involved in each step of the design process for the 90-piece collection — revealed his inspiration was all about “showing up as your authentic self,” explaining that American Eagle “gave me the space to bring my vision to life with their signature laid-back style.”
“Together, we created something that’s fresh, fun, and real; exactly how I think style should feel,” he told the outlet.

The news comes on the heels of Kelce and Taylor Swift announcing their engagement after two years of dating. As Star previously reported, the singer, 35, and Kelce shared a joint Instagram post featuring photos taken during the milestone moment.
“Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,” the couple captioned the post, which featured Swift’s song “So High School” — largely believed to have been inspired by their romance.
