"Taylor and Travis have been quietly hanging out," the source said. "She saw him when she was in NYC a few weeks ago."
The Messenger has reached out to reps for Swift and Kelce for comment.
In July, Kelce tried — and failed — to pass his phone number to Swift ahead of a stop on the singer's record-breaking Eras Tour.
During an episode of the New Heights podcast with his brother, Jason Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end said he made a bracelet for the show with the digits of his phone number on the beads.
The two-time Super Bowl champ wanted to gift the homemade jewelry to the pop star ahead of her Kansas City show at Arrowhead Stadium in July, but unfortunately for him, Swift didn't take the bait.
"I was disappointed that she doesn't talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings, so I was a little butthurt I didn't get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her," Kelce explained on the podcast.
As his brother laughed, Kelce added, "She doesn't meet anybody — or at least she didn't want to meet me, so I took it personal, but it was an unbelievable show."
The pairing comes after Swift and Matty Healy's whirlwind romance came to an end in June after weeks of dating.
"It was a whirlwind romance but Taylor and Matty are now not together. Taylor broke it off with him, and it happened fast," a source told The Messenger at the time. "They had a lot of fun together, and it moved really quickly, but ultimately Taylor wanted to move on and be single."
Swift was linked to Healy in May after she and longtime boyfriend Joe Alwyn broke up in April. The 12-time Grammy winner is releasing 1989 (Taylor's Version) on Oct. 27.

I didn't clarify shit beyond I didn't think there was anything wrong with the court system because I don't and didn't think that's what my words said.
I stand by my comment that Jackson should not be in suite. He should not be normalized. It's hard to say no to ****ed up family members. The Mahomes family aint no different.
I get it. Well, besides the irony of calling me holier than thou while simultaneously virtue signaling.... but still.
Football is a privilege, especially in your brother's suite. But, even if you've had fucked up family to relate to, I think it hits differently when it's your specific situation and your brother in that very specific situation, and the conversations we aren't privy to and so on and so forth.
At 30k feet... sure, people need consequences and he's going to court for his, and if there's such thing as 'earning' a spot in your brother's suite to watch football, he's failing that.
I'd sure as hell tell him to lay low and stay out of trouble, stay the hell of social media, FFS.
Beyond that, I have no clue what Pat or anyone else in that situation should do because I have no clue what goes on behind closed doors.... hell, he's probably staying out of trouble by being at football games. :-) [Reply]

I'm waiting for BRC to turn the conversation into how he lives the perfect life. He obviously lives in the only house in Florida (and FL is the only place to live) that's worth his nobleness, makes more money than everyone on CP combined, can instantly surmise every situation in 5 nanoseconds with the perfect solution.
Blah, blah, blah....
Dude's a legend in his own pea-sized brain. [Reply]

There's probably some nuance in that statement you're missing. I'm not at all a "Swiftie" in the sense that I still haven't gone out of my way to listen to any of her music and don't plan to, but Travis has an argument for being my favorite Chiefs player of all time, and it's interesting to think about his life after football.
Does it matter to me on a personal level who he dates? No, not really. But it's pretty clear to me that Travis loves attention and would love to be a superstar once he retires. Taylor elevates his profile in a way that would bring him opportunities he might not have otherwise, not only because of her notoriety, but because she's clearly extremely savvy on how to generate buzz and build an audience. I think it's great that he might find someone who he respects as an entertainer but he can also learn from (and I like to think she can learn some things from him as well).
Combine that with the fact that Taylor is absolutely, 100% bringing new fans into Chiefs Kingdom - many of whom are making their dads and husbands miserable because they're now rooting for the Chiefs instead of their own team - and it's hard to look at this as anything but a great thing for the Chiefs. Will it all fall apart if things don't work out between them? Sure, maybe. But for now, it's adding an interesting element to a season that's otherwise mostly just a lot of waiting until January for things to get interesting.
So, am I a "Swiftie"? I don't really identify as such, but maybe. I mostly just think it's a fun element, and as long as they're having fun with it, I'm here for it. [Reply]
I think she writes good songs even if they're not for me and I'm not a swiftie, I'm just a sucker for new fans that buy in and are out having a good time at a chiefs game.
Plus it's nice to see all those black souls out there who were utterly convinced that she wasn't really into him and it was all to hype her movie up get proven wrong and see them squirm. She seems for real into him and I think it's pretty sweet. For all the shit she gets she seems like a pretty genuine person from afar, at least to me. But I'm an eternal optimist so [Reply]

Its both...
A) a harmless and fun distraction that makes our boy happy
and
B) it elevates our presence worldwide, they're hotter than Harry and Megan
I spent way too much time writing my post, but basically...this. [Reply]

She's also been incredibly likeable. Showing up all decked-out in Chiefs gear, cheering all-out and embracing of his family and friends. It's fun to watch, and Kelce can somehow handle it all and continue performing at an elite level.
And yeah - if it continues the Chiefs fan base grows and grows. This doesn't matter for wins but I'm so pro-Chiefs that I just want all the good things for the organization. [Reply]

She literally gave tons of millions of dollars to her crew. She’s an actual genuine person. Always takes pics with fans [Reply]
