Now, before you dive deep down into the Taylor Swift rabbit hole and what that means for her next album, keep in mind that Kelce is professing his love for football ahead of the Chiefs&#8217; Super Bowl 59 matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles this Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>Kelce has been around the league for a long time now. He&#8217;s burst onto the national pop-culture scene ever since he started dating Swift in the summer of 2023, but real NFL fans know that Kelce has been killing it long before he decided to date the world&#8217;s most famous person.<\/p>\n<p>He&#8217;s a ten-time Pro Bowler, a four-time All-Pro and a three-time Super Bowl Champion. He notched seven-straight seasons with 1,000-plus receiving yards from 2016 through 2022 \u2014 which is incredible production for a tight end \u2014 and he has three double-digit touchdown seasons (2018, 2020 and 2022).<\/p>\n<p>Kelce was a legend far before he became a Swiftie, and though he has slowed down a bit at 3- years-old, he still led the Chiefs in receiving yards this season with 823 and he absolutely came to play in the playoffs.<\/p>\n<p>Kelce notched seven catches for 117 yards and a touchdown against the Houston Texans in Kansas City&#8217;s Divisional Round win, which isn&#8217;t half bad for an older player who many considered \u201cwashed\u201d for much of this 2024-25 campaign.<\/p>\n<p>The thing is, Kelce isn&#8217;t washed. He&#8217;s not even close to that. His priorities have changed a bit as a player as he&#8217;s grown older, though. As he tells it at Super Bowl 59 media days, he&#8217;s still got a \u201cfull heart of football\u201d left in him, but what he focuses on now is a bit different, via Adam Teicher of ESPN.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEarly on in my career I think a lot of my motivation was driven off of individual success, wanting to get that acknowledgement of my peers, of the people watching the game that I was somebody fun to watch or I was worth watching, or I was worth having on your team,\u201d Kelce said. \u201cNowadays I just love going to work with the guys that I&#8217;m in the building with.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI love sharing these memories. I love figuring out these game plans, figuring out how we&#8217;re going to attack a defense,\u201d Kelce continued. \u201cThere&#8217;s just a certain love that I&#8217;ve found in it, and I think it&#8217;s because of the people that I go to work with.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s a 12-year veteran and highly accomplished player still finding joy and love in the little details of the game. He&#8217;s no longer worried about being flashy and being the guy that everyone wants to be. Instead, he&#8217;s focused on being a good teammate and focusing in on the nitty-gritty of what makes the grind of NFL football unique.<\/p>\n<p>He&#8217;s also been trying to be a leader for the Chiefs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI feel like this year I kind of stepped into a role of being more of a voice for the guys,\u201d Kelce went on to explain. \u201cWe had a lot of new faces, whether it was guys that we picked up in the offseason or guys we picked up throughout the season \u2026 just being able to be there for the young guys and help them understand the offense better and hopefully understand how to weather the storm.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Related Kansas City Chiefs NewsArticle continues below<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2><strong>Chiefs&#8217; Travis Kelce being \u201cin love\u201d is bad news for Eagles<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3243293\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3243293\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Travis-Kelce-still-loves-NFL-Football.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Travis-Kelce-still-loves-NFL-Football.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Travis-Kelce-still-loves-NFL-Football.jpg?resize=300,169 300w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Travis-Kelce-still-loves-NFL-Football.jpg?resize=768,432 768w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Travis-Kelce-still-loves-NFL-Football.jpg?resize=1024,576 1024w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Travis-Kelce-still-loves-NFL-Football.jpg?resize=150,84 150w\" alt=\"How Travis Kelce's 'love' makes Chiefs scary vs. Eagles in Super Bowl 59\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3243293\">Stephen Lew-Imagn Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>It&#8217;s a fun story to think about a veteran superstar still finding his love for the game after so many years and so many accomplishments, but Kelce and the Chiefs are far from done on this journey.<\/p>\n<p>Kelce, Mahomes, Andy Reid and the Chiefs are already legends and they&#8217;re quickly building the greatest dynasty the NFL has seen since Tom Brady and Bill Belichick&#8217;s New England Patriots.<\/p>\n<p>Brady and Belichick won six Super Bowls together in with the Patriots. And like the Chiefs, they did go back-to-back in 2003 and 2004. The one thing they never did, though, was win three in a row. In fact, that&#8217;s never happened in the modern Super Bowl era, so the Chiefs are 60 minutes away from NFL immortality and you just know that in the biggest game of their lifetimes, Kelce is going to come up big.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s just what he does, and he could do it even if he wasn&#8217;t locked in. He&#8217;s that talented of a tight end.<\/p>\n<p>The Eagles are in trouble in this one, though, because Kelce is clearly focused on getting this win for himself, his teammates and the Chiefs organization, and a focused and pumped-up Travis Kelce is impossible to stop.<\/p>\n<p>This is a big game and Kelce is going to come up big in it. That&#8217;s about as close to a guarantee as you can get because he&#8217;s playing for love.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Travis Kelce is in love with football all over again, and that&#8217;s great news for the Chiefs as they take on the Eagles in Super Bowl 59.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":31564,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[107,112,31,80],"class_list":["post-31563","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl","tag-patrick-mahomes","tag-super-bowl","tag-taylor-swift","tag-travis-kelce"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>BREAKING: How Travis Kelce&#039;s &#039;love&#039;
