According to the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, the two had been getting to know each other for several weeks before she attended his game versus the Chicago Bears on September 24, 2023.

“We had known each other for close to a month up until that point,” Kelce, 34, said during an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show Wednesday.

Three days before Swift attended the Chiefs-Bears game, Kelce said on The Pat McAfee Show that he “threw the ball in her court” and encouraged her to watch him play. On Wednesday, he confessed that when he said it on the show, he already knew she would come see him play.

“It wasn’t just an out-of-the-blue, ‘Hey, come to the game,'” he added. Swift, 34, has been to 12 Kelce games since his debut appearance.

“I love it when Taylor comes to support me and watch the game with his family and friends. “It has been nothing but a fantastic year, man,” he told McAfee.

Although the attention his relationship has brought him is “brand new,” he says he’s enjoying it.

“You know, it’s been a crazy, crazy ride that I could have never anticipated,” he said. “But I am having fun with it. Aside from the grumpy NFL fans who don’t want the Chiefs to win, the majority of the world is having a good time.

Rumours of a connection between the two began when the athlete attended the singer’s Eras Tour at Arrowhead Stadium and attempted to offer her his phone number.

“If you’re up on Taylor Swift concerts, there are friendship bracelets, and I received a bunch of them being there, but I wanted to give Taylor Swift one with my number on it,” he remembered to his brother Jason on their New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce podcast in July.

Kelce said he was “a little butthurt” that he didn’t get to give her the personalised bracelet since she was so busy preparing for the programme.

“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,” his older brother said.

During an interview with the December/January issue of WSJ Magazine, he admitted that he admires her work ethic and that they have something in common. His own work ethic is why he will not be attending the Grammys on Sunday. He told McAfee.

“I wish I could go support Taylor at the Grammys and watch her win every single award that she’s nominated for but I think I got practice on Sunday,” Kelce remarked.

Kelce and the Chiefs will face the San Francisco 49ers on Feb. 11 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Swift is up for six Grammy awards, including album, record, and song of the year.

I’ve heard some of it, and it’s astounding. I can’t wait for her to shake up the world when it’s eventually out.

Travis, who revealed he hasn’t spoken with Taylor since her Grammys appearance, added: ‘She’s incredible. She is rewriting the history books herself. I told her I’d have to keep my half of the bargain and bring home some hardware, too

Kelce also acknowledged Swift’s importance in attracting new football fans: ‘She’s definitely brought a lot of new faces to the game,’ he remarked.

Taylor has a huge fan base that follows and supports her throughout her life. It’s been fantastic to bring the Swifties into Chiefs Kingdom and introduce them to the football and sports worlds.’

The sportsman claimed that he hasn’t spoken to Swift since Sunday night’s Grammy Awards.
