Taylor Swift was a sounding board for Travis Kelce when he was deciding whether to retire from the NFL. Sources exclusively tell Page Six that the Grammy winner and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end “definitely discussed” the life-changing topic “as a couple.” We’re told Swift, 35, made it known she was definitely in favor of Kelce playing again.

If Taylor Swift wanted Travis Kelce to retire, one could understand why. The romance is blossoming, and both would surely enjoy more privacy and less media coverage about their relationship. But according to a report from Eileen Reslen of Page Six, Swift actually pushed for Kelce to return for his age-36 season in 2025.

He was considering retiring from football after his Super Bowl loss. After the Kansas City Chiefs’ devastating loss to the Philadelphia Eagles at the 2025 Super Bowl, football fans and Swifties alike were left wondering whether Taylor Swift would be back in the stands at Arrowhead Stadium next season as Travis Kelce mulled over a potential retirement from football.
