Scouts from the New York Giants, Baltimore Ravens, Indianapolis Colts, Cincinnati Bengals, and Green Bay Packers, and Carolina Panthers can be seen in the video.
The Kansas City Chiefs were likely in attendance as well, even without an obvious presence on Kelce’s Pro Day highlight reel.
Kansas City drafted Kelce No 63 overall in the third round of the 2013 NFL Draft. The footage of his Pro Day was posted by Cincinnati football’s official account.
Cincinnati’s home turf, Nippert Stadium, will host the ‘New Heights’ live show on April 11, the popular podcast hosted by Travis and Jason Kelce, both Bearcat alumni.

More than a decade before his romance with Swift took him to Singapore for ‘The Eras Tour’, Kelce participated in the 40-yard dash, broad jump, and several other combine drills.
‘I really didn’t know what I was getting myself into, I hadn’t rally seen a tight end workout,’ Kelce said during his Pro Day. ‘It was fun and it was exciting, glad the experience is over. Now I can work on getting my body full strength and getting ready for actual football season.’
A big part of any wide receiver or tight end workout is who is throwing them the ball.
For Kelce, it was former Cincinnati starter and current Winnipeg Blue Bombers quarterback Zach Collaros.
Before Kelce had any rapport with Patrick Mahomes, it is clear he and Collaros developed a bond playing for the Bearcats.
Kelce refers to Collaros as his brother and said the current Canadian Football League player was his first choice of signal caller for his Pro Day.

‘It’s been a long time, I feel like he’s been here forever,’ Collaros said of Kelce over a decade ago. ‘Obviously, we’ve known each other since he got here. It’s exciting to see where he’s going to end up and to kind of live through him a little bit in the NFL.’
Collaros did try to make the NFL after graduating from Cincinnati with the Buccaneers, but never played a snap in the league, opting for Canadian football.
Kelce concluded the video saying his next steps were to possibly take part in individual workouts and meetings with teams.
‘I’m a competitor at heart and to come out here and represent Cincinnati the way I did, it was fun and it was an exciting day for me,’ Kelce added in 2013.
