"We have a nice something for Travis," Sandler said. "He's gonna come by."

This news of his cameo in "Happy Gilmore 2" comes on the heels of a report Tuesday that Kelce will have a starring role in another film, "Loose Cannons." He has also appeared in FOX horror series "Grotesquerie" and was a host of"Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity?"
Kelce is a three-time Super Bowl champ and future Hall of Famer. Based on his recent extra-curricular activities outside of football, it appears he may be setting himself up for a legendary run as an entertainer.
