The growing fascination among fans with the supposed love connection between Travis Kelce, the tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, and the renowned musician Taylor Swift continues without signs of diminishing. Both Kelce and his brother Travis concur that the NFL's use of social media is becoming excessive. While Kelce and Swift have not officially acknowledged their romantic involvement, the singer has been observed enthusiastically supporting the Chiefs star in his previous two matches.
During their conversation on the New Heights podcast, Travis expressed his enjoyment when the game broadcasts highlight the presence of spectators, as he believes it adds an extra element to the atmosphere and enhances the viewing experience. However, Jason interrupted and expressed his belief that the coverage is exaggerated.
