Taylor Swift is still engaged to the guy on the football team. Her fiancé, Travis Kelce, revealed he’s returning to the NFL for another season with the Kansas City Chiefs on The Pat McAfee Show.
“Let’s go! Making another run at it, baby, and the Chiefs are making moves, Pat,” he said during the March 10 episode. He doubled down and also confirmed the news on his New Heights social media profiles.
This will mark his 14th year playing with KC and Coach Andy Reid, and according to ESPN, his new deal is “worth $12 million and carries a maximum value of $15 million.”
Of course, the tight end shared that he didn’t come to the decision alone. He confided in Taylor, who he says “motivated” him to keep doing what he loves. Wholesome!
“We share the same love for what we do, and we’ve had this...desire,” he told Pat. “I’m still in love with this game.”
He then fully gushed about KC, adding, “I still love going to work, putting on the pads, grinding it out, and just playing the game, you know, and I think my best opportunity was playing for the Chiefs yet again and running this thing back with Pat Mahomes and Coach Reid. And got my guy Eric Bieniemy, Coach Bieniemy back, and there’s a lot of pieces in Kansas City that I just I absolutely love and I can’t wait to get back in the building with.”
Having an inspiring fiancée in his orbit doesn’t hurt either. Travis shared it’s “amazing to see” Taylor “keep going to the table, keep finding new things to write about, keep finding new melodies…and on top of that, still seeing her have that love and joy in what she does.”
He added, “That’s motivating for anyone to see, let alone my fiancée, and knowing that I’m going through something where I’m trying to figure out what exactly the future holds for me, something like that definitely motivates me to say, ‘You know what? I’m not done either.’”
As for his future in the NFL, Trav shared he’s “still got some ideas in the back of my mind” and “still got some juice to play this game.”
We simply love to see it!!
