"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.

KANSAS CITY, MO—Amid widespread speculation over whether his girlfriend Taylor Swift could attend the Super Bowl due to a performance in the East Asian country, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has been quietly avoiding the fact that he has no idea what Japan is, sources confirmed Monday. “Oh, yeah, I’ve been to Japan—I’m pretty sure they had one in my hometown growing up.” Kelce reportedly told Swift, nodding in silence as he tried to discern from context clues what his international pop star partner meant when she said “Tokyo” and “airplane.” “Honestly, if you need a ride from Japan, I can swing by before the game and pick you up. It’s probably pretty close to the stadium.” At press time, Kelce sidestepped reporter’s questions about Japan by simply responding, “Best burgers I’ve ever had.”
Figured this thread was the best place for this rant...lol.
I'm not one who complains about Taylor being shown at football games. I mean, she's uber famous and dating a player. She's there cheering and screaming and cussing just like the rest of us. Good for her. I'm glad she has more females taking an interest in the game.
HOWEVER... Taylor is not on the team. I'm not sure why Andy Reid is fielding questions about her. I'm not sure why she's included in school spirit days. I'm not sure why cookies and Super Bowl clothing and decorations include her. The Chiefs are playing in the Super Bowl. The CHIEFS.
A friend's daughter dressed in Taylor stuff, but they're Denver fans, so it had nothing to do with the Super Bowl spirit. Why not have a Taylor Swift themed spirit week? I wonder if that would include a Travis Kelce day. Probably not. [Reply]

Because she's currently (arguably) the most famous person on the planet right now and she is in a very public relationship with one of the Chiefs marquee players.
So naturally she's going to get associated with the Chiefs.
And given her economic impact on the Chiefs, in terms of overall brand value/awareness... that is not a bad thing. [Reply]

They're currently talking about how far away the Dallas Cowboys are to winning the Super Bowl.
Like, it's not easy to find content for two weeks. Taylor Swift is instant content and if you're working for your news job...in Vegas, do you turn your brain inside out coming up with a story about if Nick Allegretti can rise to the moment and somehow make casual fans care?
Or do you go "ask Reid about Taylor Swift" clap your hands and then hit the slots? [Reply]
