The Kansas City Chiefs' season may be over, but that doesn't mean you won't be seeing a lot of their star tight end Travis Kelce on television.

Kelce is set to star in his own reality dating show, which will revolve around his search for love.

E! has ordered eight episodes of the appropriately titled "Catching Kelce" as the 26-year-old will be joined by friends and family has he tries to find the perfect partner among a group of 50 women, one from each state.

"On top of being a well-respected athlete, Travis has a fun-loving, over-the-top personality that draws people to him, and we are excited to give our viewers an up-close look at his search for love," said E!'s Jeff Olde, according to Denise Petski of Deadline.

The series will follow the usual format, with a host of women living in a house together, fighting for Kelce's affection, but with an added twist. It will be the girls, not Kelce, who will decide who will attend the group dates, creating perfect opportunities for desired foul play, drama, and back-stabbing of reality television.

"Catching Kelce" will premiere later this year.
