Whoops, they did it again. Wait, wrong pop singer. Anyway, the NFL did it again. They released an official video and somehow mixed up Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s names.
Last year, the NFL had tin foil hatters thinking that they knew something the rest of the world didn’t when they referred to Travis Kelce as “Travis Swift-Kelce” in their preview video for the Chiefs’ Wild Card Game against the Miami Dolphins.
Did Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift secretly get married and just not tell anyone but the NFL brass? Because that would have been a hell of a marketing move to boost TV ratings even more. (That must not have been in the script for last season.)

Sadly for all the Swifties, the couple did not get married, but Travis Kelce did win the game.
Fast forward to this week, and the NFL once again made a mistake (or did they?) in one of their Week 3 game previews (3:16 mark).
“Taylor Kelce just five yards, only Kansas City pass catcher that comes in with confidence, Rasheed Rice, only Chief with 30-plus yards receiving,” the NFL narrator says while recapping the Chiefs last game against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Listen, we know that Taylor Swift is really good at drawing up plays for the Kansas City Chiefs, but she isn’t actually playing tight end for them. Is she?

Wishful thinking, NFL. Although, based on how washed Trav is looking pretty so far this season, “Taylor Kelce” could be happening soon.
After all, the seems to be far more interested in doing his podcast with his retired brother and canoodling in public with his girlfriend these days.
Too bad. Just when the Taylor Swift Subreddit was finally being fully taken over by football dads the wheels appear to coming off for Kelce.
