Just one month after hosting Saturday Night Live, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is announcing another addition to his growing off-the-field entertainer resume: “Kelce Jam.”
Kelce Jam is a concert at the Azura Amphitheater near Kansas City featuring live music and plenty of KC BBQ favorites. Performers like Machine Gun Kelly, Rick Ross, Loud Luxury, and local favorite Tech N9ne will perform. Joe’s Kansas City Bar-B-Que and Q39 are among the listed food vendors for the concert. Both were on the lists of must-hit places to eat later this month that I got from a few people familiar with the area.
Kelce called the event an extension of the Chiefs’ “Super Bowl victory lap” in a statement this morning:
“The Super Bowl victory lap is not over yet… KC just wait to see what I have in store for you all with my inaugural Kelce Jam – Draft Weekend’s biggest event ever featuring my homies Machine Gun Kelly, Rick Ross, Loud Luxury and Tech N9ne, some of KC’s best eats, awesome brand activations, and unmatched championship energy. Get ready to fight for your right to party!”
If you’re in the Kansas City area during the NFL Draft, you might be interested in checking out this. Although, the second and third rounds of the draft start at the same time (6:00 pm) as the concert. So, count me out.
Travis Kelce will host the "Kelce Jam" music festival at the Azura Amphitheater in Kansas City on April 28th (the second day of the NFL Draft).

Will Levis was in Vegas on Monday to meet with the Las Vegas Raiders for a pre-draft visit. Levis is expected to go in the top 10, maybe even in the top five if another team trades up to jump the Colts at No. 4. Still, there’s a path for Levis to be on the board at No. 7 for the Raiders that we discussed yesterday.
According to Ian Rapoport, the Raiders will also host Florida QB Anthony Richardson for a pre-draft visit on Friday.
An interesting nugget from that Rapoport hit was that the New Orleans Saints will be hosting Tennessee QB Hendon Hooker for a visit today. Hooker tore as ACL last season but is still expected to go in the first or second round. CBS Sports Chris Simms has him ranked in front of some of the big four QBs.
The Saints gave Derek Carr a four-year, $150 million contract before the start of free agency. However, the Saints could get out of the deal with $28.6 million in cap space versus $17.1 million in dead money after the 2024 season. In addition, Carr’s contract includes no guaranteed money after 2024. So, the Saints could take Hooker and groom him as the eventual replacement for Carr at No. 29.
The Colts are meeting with QBs this week as well. According to Albert Breer, Indianapolis worked out C.J. Stroud and Bryce Young in Southern California on Monday. They’re also meeting with Will Levis on Thursday in Lexington, Kentucky.
The Colts are working out both Ohio State QB CJ Stroud and Alabama QB Bryce Young today in Southern California (where the QBs are training), per sources. Indy was sparsely repped at the QB Pro Days, preferring to do it this way.
They'll get a close look at all the top QBs.— Albert Breer (@AlbertBreer) April 3, 2023
On Monday, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that the Ravens have offered Odell Beckham Jr. a contract, but we don’t know how much that offer is worth. A report on Sunday indicated that Beckham was looking for a one-year deal worth $15 million. Beckham was initially rumored to be seeking a $20 million contract, but he laughed that off on Twitter and said that his $4 million offer was a joke.
Beckham missed all of last season rehabbing from a torn ACL in Super Bowl LVI on Feb. 13, 2022. So far, no one has been willing to meet his asking price.
