Travis Kelce failed to make an appearance in the first two episodes of Ryan Murphy’s new ‘Grotesquerie’ horror series on Wednesday night.
A number of fans tuned into the show to watch Kelce make his acting debut, only to be left disappointed when he was nowhere to be seen across two hour-long episodes which premiered on FX.
The Kansas City Chiefs star does appear set to feature in the next two Grotesquerie instalments, however, after popping up twice in the teaser trailer for episodes three and four.
However, some fans could not hide their frustration after he was not used at all in the first 120 minutes.

’12 PEOPLE IN ONE LAST FEAST OKAY, WHERE’S TRAVIS KELCE,’ one asked on X after watching the second episode’s final scene.
Another posted: ‘I’m growing impatient’.
‘Where is nicholas chavez and travis kelce at?!!!’ a third user asked before Chavez finally appeared in the second episode.
Another put: ‘I feel bad for those expecting to see Trav tonight’.
While one fan concluded: ‘I knew Ryan Murphy was 100% using Travis to get us all to watch the show. We all knew it, and still watched the first two episodes.
‘I bet it has record viewing numbers.’
Two of Kelce’s lines in the show are heard in the teaser for next week’s episode, with the Chiefs tight end first heard eerily saying: ‘You’re gonna regret it.’

He then says to another character in a more light-hearted manner: ‘Want me to plug in the night light so you’re not scared in the dark?’
Travis is starring in the horror fiction series alongside Niecy Nash-Betts, Courtney B. Vance, Lesley Manville, Micaela Diamond, Nicholas Alexander Chavez, and Raven Goodwin.
The football legend’s acting debut comes amid his underwhelming start to the season with the Chiefs, which has led to question marks over his future in the NFL.
During the premiere episodes on Wednesday night, Kelce’s brother Jason has joked he will be ‘real p****d’ if his sibling is revealed to have committed a monstrous crime in the show.

Fans have already been left wincing at Grotesquerie’s incredibly gory and gruesome nature, with the first episode focusing on Detective Lois Tryon (Niecy Nash-Betts) and her search for a serial killer accused of sickening crimes – such as ‘boiling’ a young baby.
In light of that disturbing revelation, Jason admitted he will not be best pleased if Travis’ character turns out to be the serial killer in question.
The Philadelphia Eagles legend posted during Wednesday night’s premiere: ‘If Travis boiled a baby, I’m gonna be real p****d #Grotesquerie’.
