NFL sensation Travis Kelce stirred excitement among fans this week by sharing a rare, heartfelt message regarding his girlfriend Taylor Swift, following the admiration she received from country-rap artist Jelly Roll.
This moment took place on The Pat McAfee Show on ESPN, where Jelly Roll mentioned his favorite artists, including Morgan Wallen and Post Malone, and enthusiastically deemed Swift the “GOAT”.
The mention quickly gained traction online, and Kelce seized the opportunity to express his gratitude. He commented on McAfee‘s Instagram post of the segment, saying, “my dawg is the realest!!” alongside laughing and high-five emojis.
This was one of the Kansas City Chiefs tight end’s rare public mentions of Swift, making the moment particularly memorable for fans invested in their high-profile romance.
While Kelce and Swift frequently make headlines due to their outings, they have generally kept their relationship discussions to a minimum. His remark garnered thousands of likes in just a few hours, providing fans a glimpse of his ongoing support for her endeavors.

During last NFL season, Swift was often seen attending Chiefs games, typically in the family suite with Kelce’s family and friends, including fellow power couple Patrick and Brittany Mahomes. In return, Kelce showed his support by attending various international dates of Swift’s record-shattering Eras Tour, where he was sometimes spotted singing along with fans or enjoying backstage moments.
The couple has also been sighted at prominent events, such as the U.S. Open, and Swift even made a visit to Kelce at Chiefs training camp.
As Swift wraps up her tour in December 2024 and Kelce’s NFL season concludes post-Super Bowl in February 2025, the duo has found more moments to relish each other’s presence outside the public eye.
A source informed People earlier this year that the pair has been making the most of their limited free time. “They are very much in sync,” the source noted. “They cherish similar values and are enjoying this unique time away from the limelight.” The insider added that the two have been traveling and spending quality time with close friends, maximizing their shared off-season.
