Singer Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce are having quite the year, together and individually. The two were rumored to be in a relationship at the start of the 2023 season and those suspicions were confirmed when Swift attended one of Kelce’s games in September.
From there, the two have been spotted supporting each other at the other’s events, with Kelce attending Swift’s concerts and the singer attending 13 Chiefs games last season. Swift was one of the first people to embrace No. 87 after his Super Bowl win, which marked his second in as many years and the third of his career.
While Kelce was off winning games, Swift was off winning awards and announcing yet another album: “The Tortured Poet’s Department.” The album has references to many stages in her life, including her relationship with Kelce. Or so we think.

Lyric: “Cause the sign on your heart, said it’s still reserved for me, Honestly, who are we to fight the alchemy?”
Breakdown: After scoring a touchdown during the Chiefs game against the Buffalo Bills, Travis celebrated by making a heart with his hands, a Swift staple. This could be a call back to that moment.
Lyric: “Shirts off, and your friends lift you up over their heads, Beer sticking to the floor, There was no chance trying to be the greatest in the league, Where’s the trophy? He just comes, running over to me.”
Breakdown: This is another obvious one, likely about the Chiefs winning the Super…
