Travis Kelce received a warm welcome from Greg Olsen and George Kittle as he arrived in Nashville for ‘Tight End University.’
The trio founded the annual gathering and teaching camp, which is now in its fourth year.
In a video posted by the New Heights podcast account, the three-time Super Bowl champion received hugs from his co-founders. Olsen shared an embrace with Kelce first and then hugged him tighter after Kelce quickly grabbed his traps.
‘So where are you coming from?’ Olsen asked Kelce. ‘Where were you? Where in the world was Travis?’
Kittle, whose San Francisco 49ers lost to Kelce and the Chiefs in the Super Bowl, entered the frame with a handshake and hug for his contemporary.

Tight End University runs through Wednesday. The gathering will not be solely based on football as the festivities include a concert starring Jon Pardi.
Among the tight ends joining this year’s camp are the Lions’ Sam LaPorta, Eagles’ Dallas Goedert, Albert Okwuegbunam and C.J. Uzomah, Jaguars’ Evan Engram, Bills’ Tre’ McKitty, the Vikings’ Shaun Beyer, Robert Tonyan and Josh Oliver, Saints’ Foster Moreau and Juwan Johnson, Giants’ Daniel Bellinger and Jack Stoll, Rams’ Colby Parkinson, 49ers’ Eric Saubert, Patriots’ Austin Hopper, Bears’ Cole Kmet, Bengals’ Drew Sample, and Ravens Isaiah Likely.
Before joining his fellow tight ends, Kelce was with a great from another sport in Nashville earlier this week. Kelce was seen on the golf course with legendary hockey player Wayne Gretzky.

Gretzky’s daughter Paulina posted on Instagram to greet him and her husband, golfer Dustin Johnson, on Father’s Day, with Kelce seen in two of four pictures.
‘It’s such a cool opportunity and a unique opportunity because it feels like you’re at an all-star game, it feels like you’re at a Pro Bowl, because it’s very seldom you get to get this many guys in your profession in one room from different teams,’ Kelce said of TEU last year on New Heights.
‘And it’s just so cool to hear everybody’s stories about what they’ve been through kind of how their coaches teach them certain routes or certain blocking schemes.’
‘You get to just bounce ideas off of each other, and I think it’s helped my game out a lot just hearing from guys.’
