During his football career he played for London Warrior, a team based in South London.
Speaking about becoming an American football star, he told : "My mom pushed me toward American football.
"Before that I simply played European football. I love contact sports, I enjoy a challenge, and I liked the idea of making a sport that was virtually unknown in Europe more popular.
"I still remember when they handed me the book with all the rules, I studied it day and night."
Kelz is also an influencer and is active on his Instagram handle @kelechidyke.
A reality TV star is born
Kelz shot to fame on the first ever series of Netflix’s Too Hot To Handle in 2020.
The show sees singles from around the world sent to a luxury resort to find love, but the goal is that they make that connection without getting physical.
Following the success on the show, he was snapped up for other reality shows.
Chase has also appeared MTV's The Challenge and Spies, Lies and Allies.

Becoming a Misfits star
Kelz has switched his focus from reality TV to become a Misfits Boxing star.
On November 28, 2024, he takes on fellow Too Hot To Handle star Chase DeMoor in the ring. The heavyweight pair will feature on the Misfits 19 Supercard in Qatar on DAZN PPV.
Before stepping into the ring, the pair got into a war of words at the press conference to promote their fight.
As the pair traded verbal blows, Chase sparked carnage after throwing water on Kelz.
This is Kelz second Misfits appearance following a brutal third-round knockout of Big Tobz at Misfits Boxing 18 in September 2024.
