MOMENT ROMANTIC!! Travis Kelce Gives Sweet Shout-Out to Girlfriend Taylor Swift After Kansas City Chiefs Playoff Win

Travis Kelce Says He's Feeling 22 After Chiefs Win in Nod to Taylor Swift

Travis Kelce is the biggest Swiftie in Kansas City — and he’s not afraid to tell the world.

Speaking to reporters after the Kansas City Chiefs beat the Houston Texans in the divisional playoffs, Kelce, 35, was asked if he felt 10 years younger following his notable performance on the field.

“Twenty-two, baby,” Kelce replied on Saturday, January 18, referring to girlfriend Taylor Swift’s Red song of the same name.

Kelce — who scored a touchdown in the game — gave additional insight into his postgame mindset while speaking to Audacy’s 96.5 The Fan.

“It felt good to finally make it happen,” he added. “Man, there’s nothing better than playoff football, especially here at Arrowhead [Stadium]. The crowd is always electric, but the feeling that you get from playing with these guys who work all year [is] the most gratifying feeling when you come out on top.”

Saturday’s win propels the Chiefs to the AFC Championship against either the Baltimore Ravens or the Buffalo Bills. The titleholder will then represent the conference in the 2025 Super Bowl, taking on the NFC champ. (The Washington Commanders will compete in the NFC game against either the Los Angeles Rams or the Philadelphia Eagles.)

Should the Chiefs make it to and win the Super Bowl, they will become the first NFL team to earn three consecutive Lombardi Trophies. Kelce, for his part, isn’t thinking too far into the future just yet.

“I’m focused on the next [game],” Kelce, a three-time Super Bowl winner himself, added to reporters. “You don’t get here and have all these championships [by focusing on that]. You get here by having the right mentality and being present.”

Kelce’s family — including girlfriend Swift, 35 — were all present during Saturday’s game. The pop star stunned in head-to-toe Chanel, sitting in a private box with her parents, her younger brother, Kelce’s folks and WNBA star Caitlin Clark. The rest of the crew all wore Chiefs-branded gear.

Swift and Kelce have been together since 2023, shortly before she started attending his Chiefs games.

“Me and Taylor are happy and I couldn’t be happier to have that confidence and that comfort off the field and all the support I could ever ask for in the stadium,” Kelce said on the Wednesday, January 15, episode of the Stephen A. Smith Show. “She loves coming to Arrowhead and coming to the games and cheering for me, so I got all the support in the world to keep chasing these dreams.”

Days earlier, the tight end appeared on the Pat McAfee Show, stating that he felt “fired up” about the playoffs.

“I’m ‘feeling 22’ all over again, baby,” he quipped at the time, once again referring to Swift’s song of the same name. “Let’s go!”
