NFL star Travis Kelce is trying something different beyond football by diving into the world of entertainment.
This week, Kelce, 34, landed a gig to host a new game show on Amazon Prime Video.
According to insiders talking exclusively to Us Weekly and PEOPLE, the show is called "Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?" It's like the old show "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?", but with famous guests tackling trivia questions.

Kelce's knack for hosting has impressed everyone during filming in Los Angeles.
One source said he's "funny and witty," a perfect fit for the job.
Besides hosting, Kelce is also getting into producing. He's already worked on two film projects: "My Dead Friend Zoe" and an upcoming documentary called "King Pleasure" about Jean-Michel Basquiat.
Kelce isn't new to TV. He hosted "Saturday Night Live" in March 2023 and starred in the reality dating series "Catching Kelce" back in 2016.
Kelce's girlfriend, Taylor Swift, is cheering him on in his career moves.
A source close to the couple says Swift is "fully supportive" and wants them to find enough time together despite his busy schedule.
But don't worry, Kelce fans! He's not hanging up his football jersey anytime soon.
In a press conference earlier this year, he made it clear he's not ready to retire and still loves the game.
During the off-season, Kelce has been enjoying time in Los Angeles with Swift, soaking up the sun and each other's company.
He's even thinking about going to Coachella later this month.
As Kelce explores new paths, he's staying focused on football and has a strong support system around him.
His latest ventures show off his versatility and willingness to take on new challenges, whether on the field or in front of the camera.
