Is Travis Kelce's connection with Taylor Swift affecting his game, or is it just harmless fun?

Looks like Taylor Swift’s more than just a sideline cheerleader at the Chiefs games—she’s a secret strategist too! At least that’s what Travis Kelce claims, and according to him, she’s not just drawing up plays for Kansas City, but she’s doing it with a little favoritism. That’s right, folks—Taylor Swift is “biased” when it comes to her play-calling, focusing her creativity solely on her beau, Kelce.

“She’s a little biased and just creates plays for me,” Kelce confessed during an episode of the Rich Eisen Show. He went on to explain that Swift’s been soaking up everything about football. “She has been so open to learning the game. She didn’t know much about the rules and everything, but what makes her so good in her profession is that she’s so detailed in every aspect,” the star TE asserted. 

From the sounds of it, Swift’s been applying that same meticulous attention to her newfound interest in football, even going so far as to jot down a few plays. “I don’t think any of the plays have gotten to Coach Reid yet, but if they ever do, I’ll make sure everyone knows it was her creation. But they exist, and they’re actually written down on a piece of paper.”

This all came to light after Rich Eisen joked about the pop singer’s involvement, even suggesting Swift might have been behind Patrick Mahomes’ viral behind-the-back pass (which, let’s be honest, would’ve been a total Taylor move). Kelce seemed to enjoy the thought of it, adding, “We’ll see if they can make it to Coach Reid’s office. She’s scheming me open, basically.” 

For now, none of these Swift-crafted plays have seen the light of day, but with Kelce hinting at Taylor’s creative side, who knows what the future holds? One thing’s for sure: Travis Kelce might be biased about Taylor Swift’s work, but as long as it involves drawing up plays just for him, he’s all in.

Travis Kelce expresses bias towards Taylor Swift’s work

The Chiefs’ TE might be known for bulldozing defenses on-field, but off-field, he’s got another passion: Taylor Swift. That’s right, this NFL star’s a loud-and-proud Swiftie, and he ain’t shy about it. Whether he’s belting out lyrics at her concerts or hyping up her albums, Kelce’s got his superstar girlfriend’s back. But recently, he spilled the tea on which album hits closest to home—and it’s not just because of the bangers.

What’s your perspective on:

Is Travis Kelce's connection with Taylor Swift affecting his game, or is it just harmless fun?

Have an interesting take?

During a chat at his own event, Kelce Jam, the 34-year-old, revealed his favorite Taylor Swift albums. “I’m a big 1989 era, but I’m not going to lie.  I might be a little biased towards the Tortured Poets Department just a little bit,” Kelce confessed. Why the bias? Well, word on the street is that a few tracks might be inspired by him.

But Kelce doesn’t just stop at albums—he’s got specific tracks he’d love to blast at his festival. His top pick? So High School. The reporter suggested Alchemy and Fearless, both guaranteed to get the crowd jumping. Kelce also dropped another favorite that’s close to his heart, or rather, his niece’s—it’s her top Swift jam—Lover. 

So, whether he’s catching passes or catching feelings, Kelce’s living his best Swiftie life. With Taylor’s storytelling magic and Kelce’s game on and off-field, they’re giving us major #CoupleGoals, proving they might just be the coolest crossover hit yet.
