Kelce seems thrilled with the project.

‘Being part of My ᴅᴇᴀᴅ Friend Zoe as an executive producer has been an incredible experience,’ Kelce told People in a statement on Wednesday.

My ᴅᴇᴀᴅ Friend Zoe ‘tells a compelling story and shines a light on the challenges our veterans face,’ Travis added.

He is ‘proud to be a part’ of the project.

‘My hope is to continue working on meaningful projects like this — stories that entertain, inspire and make a real impact,’ he continued.

Kelce said the movie ‘tells a powerful story and puts two strong female characters at the forefront.

‘Sonequa and Natalie bring depth and authenticity to their performances, highlighting the strength, resilience and leadership of women in the military,’ he said.

My ᴅᴇᴀᴅ Friend Zoe is a dark comedy that follows Merit (Martin-Green) as she battles PTSD after the death of her friend and fellow Army veteran Zoe (Morales).

 Hausmann-Stokes said Kelce was ‘incredible’.

‘While our schedules didn’t align for him to visit set or meet the cast, it was clear from the outset that Travis signed on because of his support for the military and veterans,’ the filmmaker said.

‘Everyone on this film — from the leads, to our 90 percent real veteran cast, to the crew, producers and army of investors that made the film possible — was doing it for social impact and greater causes. It was an honor to have Travis among our ranks for those same reasons.’

Kelce has been with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2013. He’s won three Super Bowls with the team.

They lost this year’s Super Bowl.

On February 12 Travis said that he is taking it slowly after the big game. 

‘I think I’m gonna take some time to figure it out,’ he said.

‘I think I owe it to my teammates that if I do come back, it’s gonna be something that it’s a wholehearted decision and I’m not half-ᴀssing it. 

‘I’m fully here for them and I think I could play, it’s just whether or not I’m motivated or it’s the best decision for me as a man, as a human, as a person to take on all that responsibility.’
