Travis Kelce wants everyone to know he's still just a regular guy at heart ... despite being a three-time Super Bowl champ, podcasting juggernaut, up-and-coming actor, and boyfriend to the biggest musician on the planet.

The Kansas City Chiefs superstar opened up on just how awesome his life is during a sit-down with "Good Morning America" on Thursday ... and while he's becoming one of the most famous athletes around, he said he's not taking any of it for granted.

"I’m so fortunate, so grateful of everything that's come my way in life," the 34-year-old said.

Dirty feet are apparently commonplace in households with Kelces in them ... 'cause just days after Jason Kelce admitted he doesn't wash his feet, Travis Kelce revealed he, too, sometimes showers without soaping up his little piggies!!

The Kelce bros dove into the topic on Wednesday's episode of "New Heights" ... after Jason caused internet uproar earlier in the week when he posted on his X page that his bathing routine doesn't include scrubbing his tootsies.

Jason reiterated on the pod he thinks it's a complete waste of time ... telling Travis, "Who the f*** washes your legs or -- what kind of psychopath washes your feet?"

Houston Texans star wideout Tank Dell is opening up about the shooting that almost derailed his sophomore season in the NFL ... saying the incident was simply a matter of being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Dell was hit during the incident ... and suffered minor injuries.

TMZ Sports has learned ... the incident happened at around 2 AM at a 7-Eleven in Dallas -- when police say Pettigrew became aggressive during an argument inside the shop.

It's unclear exactly what kicked off the tiff -- but in surveillance video, you can see after Pettigrew and several people exchanged words, the former ex-NFLer threw a right hook at the front door, causing it to break.

Emmitt Smith was devastated to learn of the passing of his former teammate Larry Allen on Monday ... saying in an emotional video he's at "a loss for words right now."

Smith, through tears, remembered Allen as a "good dude," a "great player," and a "super person" in a clip he posted to his Instagram page just minutes after the Dallas Cowboys revealed the former offensive lineman had died Sunday while on vacation in Mexico.

Smith played with Allen from 1994 to 2002 ... and while he said he hadn't been able to see much of the Hall of Famer following his retirement, he was still obviously shaken.

Dallas Cowboys legend Larry Allen -- arguably the best interior offensive lineman in NFL history -- has tragically died.

The team announced on Monday that Allen passed away on Sunday while on vacation with his family in Mexico. No further details surrounding his death were released.

"The Jones family and the Cowboys extend their deepest condolences, thoughts and prayers to the Allen family," the Cowboys said in a statement, "and grieve along with the many other friends and Cowboys teammates that also loved Larry."

Brandon McManus -- a former Super Bowl champion who signed a big free-agent deal with Washington in March -- has just been cut by the Commanders ... following allegations he sexually assaulted two flight attendants last year.

The women made the claims against the 32-year-old kicker in a lawsuit that was filed in Duval County, Fla. last month.

Jane Doe I and Jane Doe II said that while they were working on a Sept. 28, 2023 United Kingdom-bound flight privately booked by the Jacksonville Jaguars ... McManus, who played for the Jags at the time, became inappropriate with them.

Justin Jefferson is getting PAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIID -- the Minnesota Vikings superstar agreed to a four-year, $140 million extension on Monday ... the richest contract for a non-quarterback in the history of the NFL.

The deal was announced just minutes ago ... with Adam Schefter saying a whopping $88.743 million will be due as soon as the standout wide receiver signs on the dotted line -- and $110 million overall is guaranteed.

Jefferson released a video addressing the monumental moment in his career ... captioning the post with a touching message for his fans.

President Joe Biden was so pumped to celebrate the Chiefs' Super Bowl win at the White House on Friday ... he actually donned one of Kansas City's red helmets!!

POTUS was gifted the headgear just minutes after he praised the team for winning its second straight championship ... and when Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce and the rest of the guys urged him to throw it on his dome -- he did just that!

The 81-year-old -- with help from head coach Andy Reid -- unbuckled the chinstraps ... and squeezed the protective gear over his noggin. He then put his hands up and motioned for Mahomes to throw him a pass.

Gable Steveson's wrestling career has just been put on pause ... 'cause he's now an NFL player!!!

The 2020 Olympic gold medalist signed a contract with the Buffalo Bills on Friday ... this after he apparently wowed team officials during a defensive lineman workout earlier this month.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Gable's deal is a standard, three-year rookie one. Steveson is slated to wear No. 61 when he hits Buffalo's field later this summer.

Travis Kelce appears to be going stag to the Chiefs' White House party ... Kansas City just posted a vid of him getting on a bus to 1600 Penn Ave. -- with no Taylor Swift in sight.

Kelce, Patrick Mahomes and the rest of the 2023 Super Bowl champions are slated to be honored by Joe Biden at a title celebration later on Friday afternoon ... and many had wondered if the K.C. tight end's famous girlfriend would make the trip.

After all, she's on a break from her "Eras" tour shows -- albeit a very brief one -- and White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said all of the Swifties in the building were sure hoping to see her.

The woman who berated Kylie Kelce during a confrontation in New Jersey earlier this month has just issued an apology for her "heated" actions.

If you missed it ... the altercation went down over Memorial Day Weekend, when Andrée Goldberg's attempt to get a picture with Kylie and Jason Kelce outside of Steve & Cookies in Margate City went sideways.

Witnesses say Goldberg snapped after the Kelces declined the photo-op ... claiming she got in Kylie's face, and yelled that the Eagles star's wife "will never be allowed in this town again." Parts of the impassioned argument were captured on video.

NY Giants star Darren Waller -- who's also a musician -- is opening up on his love life, in song form, dropping a new track about failed past relationships just months after his ex, WNBA star Kelsey Plum filed for divorce.

The latest single is titled "Who Knew (Her Perspective)" ... and Waller said he wrote it from the viewpoint of a woman trying to love him.

"I’ve struggled with intimacy in romantic relationships my whole life, and I recognize the toll it has taken on the lovers I’ve been close to," the 31-year-old said on Thursday.

Jason and Kylie Kelce are not only welcome in Margate, NJ ... but they've also been invited to have a free meal on the mayor's dime -- this after an out-of-control fan threatened the couple wouldn't be allowed inside town limits after turning down a photo request!

Mayor Michael Collins hit up X on Wednesday to address the controversy just hours after the uncomfortable interaction went viral online ... where a woman was seen arguing with the Kelces, all because Jason and Kylie wanted to enjoy a night out without interruption.

"On behalf of the City of Margate, I'd like to formally apologize to Jason & Kylie Kelce for the experience they had in Margate City over the holiday weekend," Collins wrote.

Jason Kelce is adamant his wife isn't "a homemaker" ... saying in response to a social media troll this week that he considers Kylie Kelce his partner and his "equal" when it comes to raising their family.

Kelce faced off with the heckler on X on Monday morning ... after the app user criticized the future Hall of Famer for the way he disagreed with some of the remarks Harrison Butker made during the Chiefs star's controversial Benedictine College commencement address earlier this month.

The keyboard warrior called Jason a "hypocrite," insisting Jason's wife "is a homemaker whose home is a mess." Jason then took about 24 hours to respond ... and, it's safe to say he disagreed vehemently with the ridiculer's accusation.

Nicole Brown Simpson's 30-year death anniversary is coming up -- with her sisters saying they're still battling grief ... and O.J. Simpson's passing hasn't helped them move on.

Denise, Dominique and Tanya Brown sat for an interview with Diane Sawyer ahead of a new documentary that's coming out that looks back on Nicole's life and murder -- which they believe was carried out at the hands of O.J. ... even though he was criminally acquitted.

Despite that, the Brown siblings say there were warning signs in Nicole and O.J.'s relationship ... including domestic violence, which they reflect upon in this sit-down and in the doc.
