That is to say, otherwise known as Taylor Swift's boyfriend, Kelce received 252,200 total entries, which means he is on his way to a ninth consecutive Pro Bowl appearance.

The 12th year tight end had a decent year, but by his standards it may have been a bit underwhelming, considering he will most likely finish short of the 1,000 yards mark for two consecutive seasons.
Kelce, 35, has 97 catches for 823 yards and three touchdowns in 16 games so far this season.
Many pointed out that Kelce may have gotten the most votes because of the unrelenting support and dedication of Swift's diehard fan base, otherwise known as 'Swifties.'
To note, Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs finished right behind Kelce with 250,000+ votes, and Washington Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels was third with 242,000.
Also, Raiders rookie Brock Bowers was named as the other tight end on the AFC roster, leading all NFL TE's in receptions (108) and receiving yards (1,144) through Week 17.
Considering Kelce's Pro Bowl selection, fans have expressed their discontent with the results, as they feel other tight ends were more worthy.

To sum it all up, one user on X wrote: "Kelce's bum a** finishing first in Pro Bowl voting is a joke. Bowers/McBride are far and away better TE's than he is. And that's not counting the numerous other players who are better. I guess the Taylor Swift fans voted."
