Amid ongoing rumors surrounding Taylor Swift‘s romantic life, it seems that NFL star Travis Kelce is winning the hearts of Swifties. As one fan aptly put it, “Taylor is dating an American football player who is vaccinated, drinks Bud Light, and loves his mom.” The buzz intensified when Swift attended a Kansas City Chiefs game to watch Kelce play on September 24, all but confirming their connection.

What further fueled speculation was Swift’s departure from the stadium with Kelce after the game. Jarrett Payton, a TV anchor and the son of NFL legend Walter Payton, shared a video of the two walking together in the depths of Arrowhead Stadium. A fan also managed to capture Kelce and Swift in a convertible outside the venue.
Ok but get this- Travis is wearing the @KidSuper “1989 Bedroom painting demin” jacket and pants in cream.

But there’s an intriguing twist to this story. Fans couldn’t help but notice what appears to be a clever Swift Easter egg courtesy of Kelce. After the game, he was spotted wearing a white and blue outfit identified by fans as KidSuper Studios’ “1989 Bedroom Painting” jacket and pants combo. This fashion choice raised eyebrows, considering the impending release of “1989 (Taylor’s Version),” leading many to speculate that it might not be a mere coincidence.

Some fans took their detective work even further, pointing out that Kelce was born in 1989, entered the NFL in 2013, clinched his first Super Bowl victory at the age of 31 (with the 13 being a backwards nod to 1989), and weighs 113 kg. It’s safe to say the Swift-Kelce connection has left fans both delighted and intrigued.
