Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes confessed he helped Travis Kelce show off for Taylor Swift.
The pop music superstar appeared to answer questions about her alleged romance with Kelce by sitting with the star tight end’s mom during Sunday’s Chiefs game against the Chicago Bears. Mahomes confessed in a post-game interview he was aware the “Love Story” singer was in the stands and wanted her to see Kelce score a touchdown.

“I heard she was in the house,” Mahomes said. “I felt a little bit of pressure. I knew I had to get it to Trav.”
Kelce scored on a 3-yard pass halfway through the second quarter of the Chiefs’ 41-10 pummeling of the Bears.
“I think he wanted to get in the end zone as much as all the Swifties wanted him to,” Mahomes said.
The two-time Super Bowl MVP said he hasn’t met Swift, but expects to if she and Kelce are an item. According to Mahomes, Kelce told him before the game that Swift might be in attendance. He wasn’t sure his sometimes stoic teammate was serious.
Kelce claimed during a recent appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show” he’d extended an invitation to Swift to see him perform in Kansas City.
“I threw the ball in her court and told her, ‘I’ve seen you rock the stage in Arrowhead,'” he said. “You might have to come see me rock the stage in Arrowhead and see which one’s a little more lit.’”
Swift and Kelce were spotted together after the game. The Chiefs bring their act to MetLife Stadium Sunday night for a date with the Jets.
