Thanks to her well-known love of baking, Taylor Swift won over her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs teammates in the sweetest way possible.
During an interview with Mike Florio and Chris Simms at the NFL Scouting Combine, Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid revealed that pop star made the team’s offensive linemen some “homemade Pop-Tarts.”
Swift baked some of the Chiefs’ offensive linemen the homemade snack during the football season, a gesture that immediately put her in the team’s good graces.
“Love spending time with Big Red. Usual great stuff on Mahomes and how the Chiefs pulled it all together,” Simms wrote on X. “Hilarious nugget: Taylor Swift made the Chiefs o-line homemade pop-tarts during the season But Andy lamented he didn’t get any though.”
“And kind of behind the scenes to fit in … she likes to cook, so she made the offensive linemen these homemade Pop-Tarts,” Reid said.
“So it was over. “She didn’t give me one and the offensive linemen definitely didn’t give me one.”

Reid is not unfamiliar with Swift. She grew up in Pennsylvania, and her father, Scott, was a big Eagles fan when Reid was coaching in Philadelphia. Reid knew Swift when she was a kid, well before she became as he noted possibly the most famous woman on the planet.
The Chiefs head coach was also asked if the Swift phenomenon became too much for the players or the team.
“It was never an issue, honestly,” Reid said in the interview. “Travis handled it great. She handled it great. And it was never an issue.”
Here is how social media responded:
Reid also expressed his support for Swift’s NFL journey over the past few months, saying, “I think it’s a great escape for her where she can come in, and she sincerely enjoys the games.”
Swift attended 13 total games last year as the team went 10-3. That also included wins in the postseason over the Miami Dolphins in the Wild card round, the Buffalo Bills in the divisional round, the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Championship game, and the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl.
