Travis Kelce is set to make his first appearance on FX’s Grotesquerie on October 2, after his absence from the first two episodes left eager fans fuming.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end is making his on-screen acting debut with the twisted horror series, with episodes coming out every Wednesday.
On the eve of his highly-awaited screen time, the show’s Instagram account posted stills of Kelce from his debut episode.
The behind-the-scenes shots show Kelce wearing an all-white ensemble and chatting with Niecy Nash’s character, Detective Lois Tryon, in a garden setting. Another shot shows Kelce walking towards Nash in the hall with the camera crew filming him.
‘Travis. Tomorrow,’ the account captioned as fans took to the comment section to express their excitement.

Fans were frustrated over the Kansas City Chiefs star’s absence from the first two episodes
‘Oh here we goooooo,’ one user wrote. ‘I’m looking forward to see his abilities as an actor.’
‘Looking forward to seeing how Travis plays into this amazing show,’ a second added.
A third speculated ‘I think he’s the killer.’
During the premiere episodes on Wednesday night, Kelce’s brother Jason joked he would be ‘real p****d’ if his sibling is revealed to have committed a monstrous crime in the show.
Fans have already been left wincing at Grotesquerie’s incredibly gory and gruesome nature, with the first episode focusing on Detective Tryon’s search for a serial killer accused of sickening crimes – such as ‘boiling’ a young baby.

In light of that disturbing revelation, Jason admitted he would not be best pleased if Travis’ character turned out to be the serial killer in question.
‘If Travis boiled a baby, I’m gonna be real p****d,’ Jason wrote on X.
Kelce’s acting debut comes amid the Chief’s 4-0 start to their title defense. After a slow start individually, Kelce had a breakthrough game on Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers.
After catching a total of eight passes for 69 yards in the first three games, Kelce caught seven passes for 89 yards during Sunday’s 17-10 win. In doing so, he broke the Chiefs’ franchise record in receptions.
