George Kittle Jokes About Travis Kelce’s Reason for Turning Down Netflix’s ‘Receiver’ (Exclusive)

San Francisco 49ers star George Kittle had a cheeky response to Travis Kelce turning down a role in Netflix’s Receiver. 

At the Tuesday, July 9, premiere of the reality series, Kittle, 30, exclusively told Us Weekly, “I think Travis was just worried that he wouldn’t have enough exciting things going on in his life.”

Kittle continued, “He just didn’t want to disappoint the viewers at home. That’s all it was.”

During an appearance on the “Bussin’ With the Boys” podcast last month, Kelce, 34, said he was approached to be one of the stars of the Netflix show — which features Kittle, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Justin Jefferson, Davante Adams and Deebo Samuel — but said, “I’m way over the reality s–t. I’m out on that s–t.”
