Andy Reid knows exactly how Travis Kelce should spend his time during Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour.

The Kansas City Chiefs head coach recently made an appearance on The Athletic’s Scoop City podcast,

where he addressed Kelce’s high-profile relationship with Swift and his appearances at her concerts.

“I think it’s great for him. He can handle it. As a matter of fact, I think he probably loves it to a point,” said Reid, 66, referring to how Kelce, 34, manages his fame. “I think there’s a great escape for him.”

Reid continued, “I said that about Taylor, too. I mean, she comes to the game, she can kind of escape having to be the show. When he goes to her concerts, she’s the star,” before joking, “He can be hanging out there and be the support or the waterboy, so he can do that.”

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift have been the talk of the town since they entered into their romance last year, supporting each other publicly. Kelce has been spotted at Swift’s concerts, and Swift has shown her support during the Chiefs’ Super Bowl-winning season.

Reid acknowledged the complexity of managing fame, saying, “It depends on the people involved,” but he believes both Kelce and Swift, both 34, are up to the task. “She gets all that. He’s kind of grown into it. That podcast of theirs is ridiculous, so he’s gotten a lot of notoriety for that,” Reid said, referencing Kelce’s popular New Heights podcast with his brother, Jason Kelce. “He’s an outgoing guy. I mean, he comes into a room and he’s going to light the room up. Everybody’s his best friend. Until you prove him wrong, everybody’s a friend.”

Regarding the rising stardom of Kelce and Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, Reid added, “I grew up in Hollywood, so I’m OK with it as long as they’re ready to go. Training camp is kind of that proving ground. If you’re not ready to go, it’s going to be obvious quickly.”

Most recently, Kelce attended Swift’s tour stop in Amsterdam, where she performed a surprise medley seemingly in his honor. During the surprise set portion of her show, Swift combined “Mary’s Song (Oh My My My)” from her debut album, “So High School” from The Tortured Poets Department, and “Everything Has Changed” from her album Red.

“I’ll be 87, you’ll be 89,” Swift sang in “Mary’s Song (Oh My My My),” a line many interpreted as a nod to Kelce’s jersey number, 87, and her birth year, 1989. In the second song, she sang, “You know how to ball, I know Aristotle.” The third song referenced a love that changes a person’s perspective on life.

Kelce, who attended the concert with Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, was seen wiping away a tear during the heartfelt performance. This tender moment further highlights the deep connection between the football star and the pop icon.

As Kelce and Swift continue to support each other, their relationship has become a fascinating intersection of sports and entertainment, capturing the public’s imagination and showcasing the human side of these larger-than-life figures.
