Over the past week, the rumor mill has been exploding with speculation that Eras Tour powerhouse Taylor Swift has spending some, allegedly romantic, time together with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. During a post-game interview on Thursday night (Sept. 14), Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, Travis’ older brother, shared his thoughts on all of the rumors.
“I’ve seen these rumors… I cannot comment,” Jason said, before noting that “everyone’s been infatuated with Travis’ love life” since his E! series Catching Kelce premiered in 2016. From 2017 to 2022, Travis dated social media influence Kayla Nicole.
“I don’t really know what’s going on there,” Jason remarked. “I know Trav is having fun, we’ll see what happens with whoever he ends up with.”
Travis and Taylor have been linked since July when the football star attended her Eras Tour stop at Kansas City’s Arrowhead Stadium. On his New Heights podcast — which he hosts alongside his brother — Travis explained, “If you’re up on Taylor Swift concerts, there are friendship bracelets. I received a bunch of them being there, but I wanted to give Taylor Swift one with my number on it.”
Nonetheless, given that there aren’t meet and greets for the Eras Tour — and thus no opportunity to personally give Swift a friendship bracelet — Travis’ plan was foiled. “She doesn’t meet anybody, or at least she didn’t want to meet me, so I took it personal,” he joked. In response, Jason teased, “She probably just hasn’t gotten over the Super Bowl yet. She’s a big Eagles fan, so maybe she just made something up and didn’t want to talk to you.”
