Taylor Swift is proudly celebrating her boyfriend, Travis Kelce!
On Friday, July 12, the 34-year-old singer showed her support for Kelce by liking social media posts that hailed him as the top tight end in the NFL. Swift first liked a post from ESPN NFL on Instagram, which posed the question, “Who’s the best tight end in the game?” alongside a photo of Kelce, also 34, in his Kansas City Chiefs gear, pointing to the sky.
The post declared Kelce as number one, with the caption explaining that NFL reporter Jeremy Fowler had consulted executives, coaches, and scouts to compile the top ten list.
This year marks the fifth time ESPN has conducted these surveys to rank the top ten players in eleven different NFL positions. This year’s results also saw the San Francisco 49ers’ Christian McCaffrey being named the top running back.
Swift also liked another post from the Chiefs celebrating Kelce’s achievement. The post featured a close-up shot of Kelce smiling in his Chiefs kit, with the caption, “ESPN knows what’s up. Congratulations, @killatrav ?.” Another image showed Kelce holding a football and pointing to the sky, with the message, “Travis Kelce, the Big Yeti himself, has been ranked as the NFL’s best tight end by execs, coaches, scouts and players. You might even say he knows how to ball.”

Swift’s show of support comes after Kelce was recently seen traveling with her across Europe during the latest European legs of her Eras Tour in Amsterdam, Ireland, and London. In London, Kelce even made a special appearance on stage with Swift for the first time.
Swift and Kelce were first rumored to be dating in September 2023 and went public with their relationship in October 2023. Since then, they have been frequently seen together, jetting around the globe and supporting each other in their respective careers.
Kelce’s latest accolade comes on the heels of another win on Thursday, July 11, this time for his karaoke skills rather than his athletic prowess. While attending the American Century Championship charity golf tournament in Lake Tahoe, Nevada, Kelce participated in a karaoke contest. He performed Whitesnake’s 1982 hit “Here I Go Again” and was named the winner.
In his acceptance speech, Kelce gave a heartfelt shoutout to Swift. “Taylor, this is for you,” he said on stage in a video shared on X (formerly known as Twitter). Holding his award up in the air, he added, “I love you guys!”
Kelce was later spotted in high spirits, dancing the night away at a nearby casino and taking selfies with fans who had flocked to the city for the annual celebrity golf tournament.
Swift’s public display of affection for Kelce highlights the strong bond they share and her unwavering support for his achievements, both on and off the field.
