Fans left stunned by Travis Kelce's acting debut in Grotesquerie... as NFL star's 'sexy' role is FINALLY revealed

Travis Kelce's scripted on-screen debut stunned fans on social media as he hit screens in episode 3 of Ryan Murphy's Grotesquerie on FX.

After waiting two episodes to see the Kansas City Chiefs star on the twisted horror series, fans were treated by the first appearance of Kelce's character Ed Lachlan.

Besides Kelce's acting prowess, Ed's flirtatious nature caused a storm of reactions on social media as users labeled the role 'sexy' during Kelce's performance.

'Travis Kelce you are so sexy,' one user wrote.

'Travis Kelce in a Ryan Murphy show somehow is both a mindf*** and exactly what I would have expected,' said a second.

'WHOAHHHHH TRAVIS MICHAEL KELCE,' a third wrote while a fourth suggested: 'Listen…I’d be very fine with Kelce calling me Detective Sassy Pants on the reg.'

'This man can ACT!!!!' a fifth suggested with a snap of Kelce during one of his scenes.

'For someone who’s not an actor. Travis Kelce does a really good job in #Grotesquerie,' a sixth added with another admitting he was 'pleasantly surprised at Travis Kelce as an actor.'

'Travis Kelce is doing an adequate job at acting, I’ll give him that. But what game is he trying to pull. Lois, you’re a Detective for a reason,' an eighth user wrote. 'You know how to read people. Don’t trust Kelce girl.'

Many other comments acknowledged the job Kelce was doing as his performance took fans by surprise.

Ed first appeared while Niecy Nash-Betts' character, Detective Lois Tryon, was getting fresh air and lit a cigarette.

Kelce's character appeared to be a nurse at the hospital where Lois' husband was in a coma. After finding her sitting on a bench, Ed began sweet-talking the detective before she pulled out a flask and started drinking. He warned her not to get in her car but she proceeded to drive after drinking.

In the next scene, Lois crashes her car into a pole and wakes up in the hospital with Ed as her nurse. She convinces him to sneak out of the hospital against her doctor's orders, and he obliges.

The two held hands as they ran through the hospital hallways in slow-motion, hopped in Ed's red convertible and sped off to end episode 3.

In the following episode, Ed jokingly admitted to being a male entertainer in Alaska before ending up in the hospital.

'I worked at a male strip joint,' Kelce's character said. 'Jiggling it for horny momma's coming off of cruise ships. I rocked the banana hammock with the name Big Peter, and his banana split.'

Ed then reveals how he ended up on the streets and had 'a long way to go' from rock bottom.

'Long story short, I was just missing my dignity,' he told Lois. 'I had to find stuff to live for. You, you haven't lost your dignity. So don't.'
