In the last two years, Travis Kelce has seen remarkable success. Along with winning two Super Bowls, he also created a highly popular podcast with his brother Jason and started a relationship with global superstar Taylor Swift. It’s a storyline that feels almost too good to be true.
Kelce’s romance with Swift has significantly increased his visibility worldwide, making him a frequent subject of interest among her fans. Following his impressive performance in the Divisional Round playoff win for the Kansas City Chiefs against the Houston Texans, many of these new fans took note of his post-game remarks, particularly one statement that resonated.
Kelce feels “22” after a stellar game against the Texans
After achieving an impressive stat line of seven receptions for 117 yards and one touchdown, a reporter inquired if Kelce felt like he was 25 again. His playful reply was, “22, baby. 22.”

Swift’s fanbase quickly recognized that Kelce’s comment was a reference to her song “22,” which celebrates the experiences of being that age. Kelce certainly had a standout performance on Saturday, dominating the game as he led all players in receiving stats.
Known for elevating his game during the playoffs, Kelce dedicates much of the regular season to honing his skills and preparing for critical matches. Now, the Chiefs are set to play in the AFC Championship game for the seventh consecutive year.
