Between NFL training, podcasting, touring with Taylor Swift, and now a Hollywood cameo, Travis Kelce has no shortage of commitments.
But the Kansas City Chiefs superstar proved on the set of Happy Gilmore 2 that even in the middle of filming with Adam Sandler, recovery comes first.
Appearing on the Vanity Index podcast, co-producer Chad Mumm revealed the one thing Kelce insisted on keeping in his trailer: an Eight Sleep Pod.
"The only thing he had in his trailer was this massive like Eight Sleep bed and he would literally like go take a nap after filming," Mumm said before going on to describe Kelce's unusual on-set routine.
"He'd film a scene and then everyone would go to lunch," he explained. "And instead of lunch he would just take an hour long nap and then he would go, come back, film again. Then go back to sleep."
Kelce makes a cameo in the Netflix sequel, which brings Sandler back to his iconic role nearly three decades after the original film. Alongside Kelce, big names like Eminem, Scottie Scheffler, and Bad Bunny also make appearances.
Described on its website as "the world's first sleep fitness company," the Eight Sleep Pod integrates real-time, automatic adjustments across temperature, elevation, and sound to create a fully immersive and intelligent sleep experience.
It's not just Kelce. Apparently, the Pod has become a favorite among high performers like American tennis star Taylor Fritz, F1 driver Charles Leclerc, and many more - as well as Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg.
Kelce's commitment to naps clearly didn't go unnoticed.
