Travis Kelce will not be at the Grammys with Taylor Swift.
On Wednesday, January 31, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end spoke about The Pat McAfee Show where he talked about his relationship with the singer and how much he wishes he could be her date at the awards ceremony.
“It's exciting for me, but it's all new, man,” Kelce told the talk show host of the growing attention on their relationship. “From paparazzi following me to work every day to everyone having my name on their talk shows every day, whether it's sports or not, you know, it's been a very, very crazy ride that I could have had. “I never anticipated it.”
“But I'm having fun,” he added. “Most of the world is having fun with this… All the grumpy NFL fans, we're slowly incorporating them.”
Swift attended Kelce's football games starting in September, attending a total of 12 games, with the Super Bowl being her 13th. After the team's victory against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, January 28, the winner of the Grammy was trying to calmly leave M&T Bank Stadium to head to an after-party celebrating the Chiefs and Travis Kelce's victory when a fan saw her and yelled, “You did it.” That sh*t!
“Hopefully everyone realizes that we're just two people in a relationship, supporting each other and having fun, man, that's all it is,” Kelce said of his girlfriend's support. “[No matter] As much as the world wants to paint the picture and make us enemies, we just have fun with it. And we enjoyed every detail.”

“I love when Taylor comes out, supports me and enjoys the game with my family and friends. It’s been nothing but a wonderful year, man,” he added.
Due to the team's upcoming appearance in the Super Bowl against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, February 11, Kielce will need to be practicing and will not be able to be their date for the Grammys on February 4, where the singer is nominated for six awards for her album. midnight.
“I wish I could go support Taylor at the Grammys and see her win every award she's nominated for, but…unfortunately, I have to get ready for this big Super Bowl and we have a week,” he said.
While preparing for the game, Kelce admitted to the show's host that he needed to “take a step back” from anything that didn't have to do with football.
“Everyone in this building knows my intentions,” he said. “Football is my main goal right now. There are many people who count on me in this building, in this city and in this organization. This is my number one focus.”

“It's in my heart to be able to give everything I have on the field,” Kelce continued. “People can perceive what they want. But I wanted to make sure that the guys, the men and women in this building, knew that I was 100 percent focused on this team and getting it to where we are, where we're going next week.”
“I had to look back, take a step back and really see what it was like, you know, presenting myself to the world and just making sure everyone knew I was focused, and at the same time still enjoying my life off the field.”
The Super Bowl will be available to watch on C.B.S. or can be broadcast live on Supreme+.
