Travis Kelce

Travis Kelce may not have spent Thanksgiving exactly how he had hoped, but that doesn't mean he didn't have a good meal.

Last week, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end opened up about preparing to be solo for the November holiday—after it was previously rumored that he may have been planning to spend time with his new girlfriend Taylor Swift—and gave a hint at what he'd likely be indulging in for comfort food.

On the Nov. 22-released episode of the New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce podcast, the 34-year-old revealed that he would "be feasting on KFC because I won't have anybody here"—and that's exactly what he did, although, he wasn't alone while doing it, as he was joined by a crew of friends, instead.

A KFC rep did, indeed, confirm to People that the chain coordinated a holiday meal for Kelce and his buds, with the NFL star's pal Aric Jones even posting a glimpse at the meal on his Instagram story on Thanksgiving.

The fast food chain revealed the "TK Thanksgiving order" on X (formerly Twitter), noting that it included 56 pieces of KFC's signature fried chicken, 80 hot & spicy wings, three catering-sized sides of mashed potatoes and gravy, two mac and cheese orders, and two orders of corn.

Though not hand-cooked, the sprawling fast food feast was sure to keep everyone satisfied and at least feeling festive for the occasion.

"We have options for anyone in their KFC era this holiday season and beyond," KFC's CMO, Nick Chavez, said in a statement. "Chiefly, we recommend our finger lickin' good2 for $5 KFC Wraps for any solo celebrations... on or off the field."

Aside from the staple scent of fried chicken, do we smell another brand collaboration in the works? At this point, Kelce x KFC only seems fitting!
