In a surprising turn of events, American football fans were shocked to learn that pop sensation Taylor Swift has been delving into the intricacies of the game. Travis Kelce, star tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, confirmed that Swift has been immersing herself in football knowledge.
“She had just been so open to learning the game, she didn’t know much about the rules or anything…I think she was just curious about the profession,” Kelce revealed. It seems that Swift’s interest in football goes beyond mere curiosity, as Kelce jokingly mentioned, “I know none of the plays have gotten to Coach Reid yet, but if they ever do I’ll make sure everyone knows it was her creation. She’s a little biased and just creates plays for me. We’ll see if they can make it to Coach Reid’s office.”
Quarterback Patrick Mahomes initially spilled the beans during an interview with Chris Simms on August 29, shedding light on Swift’s genuine enthusiasm for the sport. Mahomes expressed appreciation for Swift’s inquisitive nature, saying, “Meeting Taylor, realizing how genuine and cool she is… that’s been special to me, because like you said [she’s] the most famous person in the world. She’s really interested in football, she asks a lot of great questions. She’s already drawing up plays so we might have to put one in.”
Swift’s interest in football was unveiled publicly when she attended her first Chiefs game on September 24, 2023, during the matchup against the Chicago Bears. This appearance sparked rumors about Swift’s connection with Kelce, catapulting the duo into the spotlight of media attention.
The unlikely pairing of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce has definitely raised eyebrows in the football world, with fans eagerly anticipating if Swift’s custom plays will ever see the light of day on the field. As Mahomes observed, Swift’s passion for football is not to be underestimated, and her growing involvement in the sport is indeed a spectacle to behold. Only time will tell if we’ll witness a Taylor Swift play making its way to Coach Reid’s playbook. Stay tuned for more updates on this unlikely football duo.
