Travis Kelce admitting that he tried to connect with Taylor Swift at one of her concerts has inevitably sparked rumors that the two are spending time together.
It is one of the hottest stories of the young NFL season.
Back in July on his podcast, New Heights, Travis told his brother, Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, that he attempted to shoot his shot with Taylor during her Eras Tour stop at Kansas City’s Arrowhead Stadium but he came away disappointed.
“I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings,” the 33-year-old NFL pro shared. “So I was a little butthurt I didn’t get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her.”
This week, a user on TikTok is revealing that there is a dark reason behind the recent rumors.

“At first I was like, ‘They’re perfect together,’” the video begins. “But I think that there is something much more sinister at play here. Taylor Swift is from Philadelphia. She’s an Eagles fan. I think that Taylor Swift is purposefully sabotaging the Kansas City Chiefs to allow the Philadelphia Eagles to win the Super Bowl.
“If you know anything about the Chiefs, you know that Travis Kelce didn’t play in the first game of the season because he has a very deep bone bruise and Taylor Swift is off from the Eras Tour until November. I think that Taylor Swift is hunkering down in Kansas City nursing Travis Kelce back to life.
“And that’s totally fine, except for what does Taylor Swift love to do? Bake. So, what is she doing for Travis Kelce? Baking for him. She’s getting him out of shape.”
“Travis, he’s a professional. He’s not going to let that get to him. The Chiefs stay good. Taylor knows she needs to work harder. November rolls around. Taylor has to go back out on tour…
The Chiefs stay good… They make it to the Super Bowl. Who’s their opponent? Known Taylor Swift sympathizers the Philadelphia Eagles. The week before the Super Bowl, Taylor Swift had Eras Tour shows in Tokyo. She suddenly gets really distant from Travis…
“Then, just a few days before the Super Bowl, she ghosts him. Full no contact, blocked number, invisible string severed.
“Travis, he’s upset, but he channels that feeling into the game… Finally, Super Bowl Sunday rolls around. First half, no problems. Chiefs, and Eagles pretty evenly matched. Good game.
“Halftime starts. The NFL has yet to announce who’s playing the Super Bowl halftime show… The teams leave the field for half and go to the locker room. The lights go down. Suddenly, we hear a snake hiss.
“Who rises from the floor of the stadium?… Taylor Swift. She’s wearing a bedazzled Eagles jersey… She starts playing… Travis leaves the locker room and goes back out onto the field to watch the performance. Finally, she says, ‘I have one more song for you. It’s a new version of one that you’re familiar with.’ She strums her guitar. What is it? ‘Mastermind.’ Ten-minute version.
“She sings the whole thing looking into Travis’ eyes. He’s sobbing. The tears are mixing with the black paint that he put on before the game and it’s getting in his eyes. He goes blind…
“The Chiefs fall apart… Eagles kick a field goal in the last few seconds to take the lead. The refs blow the whistle. Game over. Eagles win. Taylor Swift appears on the jumbotron. She says, ‘Checkmate, I couldn’t lose.’”
As other outlets started to report news of their connection, a source clarified to Entertainment Tonight that Kelce isn’t Swift’s secret new boyfriend. A source said they are “not officially dating.”
The 33-year-old is trying to play in his first game in 2023 after he was forced to miss the home opener. He missed the Chiefs’ Week 1 loss to the Detroit Lions with a knee injury, and his status for Week 2 against the Jaguars is still up in the air.
The Chiefs offense looked like a shell of itself without Kelce and they will need him so they do not fall two games under .500.
