Travis Kelce is a good sport! A new viral video captured the NFL star player, 34, reacting to a fan who yelled, “Let’s go, Taylor’s boyfriend!” by pumping his fist into the air twice. The crowd then cheered Travis as he walked into what appeared to be Arrowhead Stadium for the October 22 Kansas City Chiefs game against the Los Angeles Chargers — which Taylor Swift attended.
“Traylor” ship fans applauded Travis for his sense of humor. Many took to the comments section of the X video (previously Twitter) to praise the football tight end, with one writing, “Now that’s a man secured in his masculinity and relationship.” Another X user agreed with this sentiment and added that he is “comfortable … when someone refers to him as Taylor’s boyfriend. Despite being an accomplished football player, he’s content to be Taylor’s boyfriend, and that’s so freaking adorable.”

Taylor, 33, made headlines once again for attending Travis’ most recent game. During the live broadcast, the “I Can See You” singer was spotted celebrating a strong play by the Chiefs with team player Patrick Mahomes’ wife, Brittany Mahomes, by exchanging an impromptu handshake. The two women wore red Chiefs gear to support the team while cheering them on from the stands. Taylor also donned one of her signature friendship bracelets for the game, but this one included Travis’ jersey number: 87.
After the game ended, Travis and Taylor sent fans into an uproar because they were photographed holding hands as they left the Kansas City, Missouri, stadium. Not only that, but the new couple even matched in nearly coordinating red outfits.
This was the pop singer’s fourth time attending a Chiefs game this season. Her first appearance in September caused a social media firestorm as fans learned that Taylor and Travis started seeing each other. Since then, the two have maintained a low profile whenever out in public. However, they made brief cameos during Saturday Night Live’s season 49 premiere. Travis even starred — for a brief moment — in a hilarious sketch about NFL commentators arguing over his and Taylor’s budding romance.
While the famous singer-songwriter has not publicly commented on her love life, the athlete has acknowledged their relationship a few times on his and brother Jason Kelce’s podcast, “New Heights.” As social media buzz erupted over the new pair, Travis explained that he wanted to “respect” Taylor’s privacy by staying tight-lipped about her.
“What’s real is that it is my personal life, and I want to respect both of our lives,” he explained. “She’s not into media. Like, I am doing this show every single week and having fun during the NFL season on other guys’ shows.”
