Appears in the trailer for Happy Gilmore 2, NFL Netflix game

Kelce had two catches for 10 yards in the first half of the Chiefs’ game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, helping Kansas City take a 16-10 lead in the third quarter.

The contest is crucial not only for its impact on the AFC playoff picture – the Chiefs can clinch the conference’s No. 1 seed and a postseason bye with a win – but also in the broader sports media landscape because it is involves the first major team sports event to be broadcast by Netflix as well as the apparent raising of the NFL flag on Christmas Day, a day historically designated by the NBA.

Seven-time All-Pro Kelce, who is arguably just as famous for his exploits away from the starting lineup, also turned heads with his appearance in the teaser trailer that Sandler shared on social media late Wednesday morning.

Kelce, wearing a tie and vest and seemingly playing a country club employee, said to Sandler’s title character, “It’s good to see you again, Mr. Gilmore.”

Happy Gilmore 2 will be Kelce’s feature film debut, although the 35-year-old starred in the FX series Grotesquerie this fall.
