Travis Kelce Opens Up About Taylor Swift Attending His Game on His ‘New Heights’ Podcast
Every Wednesday, Travis Kelce and his older brother, Jason Kelce, sit down for a new episode of their New Heights podcast – and they never disappoint. In their newest episode, which was released on Sept. 27, Travis took a moment to discuss the one thing everyone’s been talking about – his ‘biggest catch’ yet.
No, it’s not the touchdown he caught in Sunday’s 41-10 win over the Bears, but rather a certain someone who was screaming and chest-bumping in his luxury suite when he did it. For those who have been living under a rock, that certain someone was Taylor Swift and she was spotted in Kelce’s suite on Sunday.
“Shout out to Taylor for pulling up. That was pretty ballsy,” Travis said.. He previously mentioned that he invited her during an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show last Thursday – “I told her that I’ve seen her rock a stage in Arrowhead and she might have to come see me rock the stage at Arrowhead,” he said.
Taylor Swift accepted that invite and Travis Kelce was happy she made it – seated next to his mother, Donna Kelce. He called it an ‘exciting game’ and was even happier that ‘the day went perfect for Chiefs fans.’ He finished the game with 7 catches for 69 yards and 1 touchdown – oh, and the Chiefs won.

“I just thought it was awesome how everybody in the suite had nothing but great things to say about her – the friends and family. She looked amazing and everybody was talking about her in great light,” he said of his new love interest on Wednesday’s episode. “I’m enjoying life and I sure as hell enjoyed this weekend.”
The dating rumors surrounding Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift have heated up in recent weeks, but they began in July when Travis attended her concert at Arrowhead Stadium – the same stadium he calls home and the stadium she attended on Sunday. This time, she was cheering for him – and she was pumped.

“To see the slow motion chest bumps, to see the high fives with mom, to see how, you know, Chiefs kingdom was all excited that she was there – that s— was absolutely hysterical and it was definitely a game I’ll remember, that’s for damn sure,” Travis said of the win. Hopefully, it’s the first of many more.
Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift Left the Stadium Together
After the game ended, Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift left the locker room together before getting in his 1970 Chevelle 408 Stroker convertible. “And then we just slid off in the getaway car at the end. Took my Chevelle to the game. Shout out to Taylor for coming through and seeing me rock the stage,” he said.
Travis ended up renting out a restaurant and invited Taylor, his parents – Donna and Ed Kelce – and his teammates out for a night of dancing, good food, and better times. It was the perfect night, but Travis said he’s still getting used to all the paparazzi and added attention on him now that he’s dating Taylor Swift.
“I’m on the rollercoaster, man. The rollercoaster of life,” Travis said – with his brother encouraging him that he’s ‘gotta shoot [his] shot.’ “I know I brought all this attention to me. Right, I’m the one — I did the whole friendship bracelet thing and told everybody how butt hurt I was that I didn’t get to meet Taylor.”
With that said, one insider told PEOPLE magazine that Sunday was the first time Taylor got a chance to meet Travis’ parents and they enjoyed their time together. While the couple are definitely having fun with one another, the insider warns that ‘they’re just hanging out, and there’s no pressure’ on either of them.
