As the spotlight converges on the high-profile romance between Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, questions arise about the popstar’s connection with the team. Patrick Mahomes, the Chiefs’ quarterback and reigning NFL MVP, sheds light on the matter.
Mahomes shared insights into how the team navigated the relationship, emphasizing Swift’s welcomed inclusion as one of the Chiefs.
Mahomes speaks out on Swift’s involvement with Chiefs
Patrick Mahomes shared his insights about the inclusion of the pop icon in the team. The QB shared that initially, the team kept its distance from Swift and Kelce’s relationship until it was publicly revealed. Kelce began bringing Taylor around when he realized how cool of a person she was.
“At first, I felt like everybody kind of stayed away, just let (Kelce) do what he was doing. And then he started bringing Taylor around when he realized how cool of a person she is,” Mahomes said.
Despite initial reservations, Mahomes emphasized that Swift is now considered part of “Chiefs Kingdom” and is seen as a member of the team.
“There was a couple of jokes here and there at the beginning, but she’s just part of Chiefs Kingdom. Now. She’s part of the team.”
Patrick Mahomes, one of the few players to know Swift personally, highlighted their interactions, especially with his wife, Brittany. Swift has embraced a friendship with Mahomes’ wife, and Kelce is described as lucky to be with a great girl and woman.
The QB appreciated Swift’s top-tier professionalism in her field and gained insight into it through interactions with Brittany and Travis.
“It’s been cool to kind of interact with her and see, because she’s top-tier at her profession, and see how she drives.”
Mahomes expressed satisfaction that Swift’s personality aligns well with Kelce, indicating a strong match between them.
“I’m glad that she’s the person that she is, and that’s why I think her and Travis match so well.”
Swift has been a regular presence at Chiefs games since September 24, attending several games and even resuming her Eras Tour in South America. The Chiefs have a 5-2 record in games attended by Swift, suggesting a positive impact on the team’s performance.
Patrick Mahomes’ charity account hacked before Christmas Day game
Patrick Mahomes, along with his wife Brittany and the 15 and Mahomies Foundation, has been actively involved in charitable activities. Earlier in the year, Mahomes and his foundation made a substantial $1.625 million contribution and committed to supporting Boys & Girls Clubs of America for multiple years.
The charity gained attention on Saturday night as it was hacked just two days before the Chiefs’ Christmas Day game against the Raiders.
The perpetrator, likely a Las Vegas area resident and potentially a Raiders fan, is accused of hacking the charity’s account.
The hacker has reportedly entered all of the business information associated with the 15 and the Mahomies Foundation. The 15 and the Mahomies Foundation is dedicated to improving children’s lives, focusing on health, wellness, underserved communities, and various charitable causes.
The Las Vegas Raiders, with a 6-8 record, face a challenging task on Christmas Day against the 9-5 Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium. But the focus has shifted from Patrick Mahomes’ on-field performance to the unfortunate hacking incident.
