Days after stealing spotlight with unexpected Taylor Swift date, Travis Kelce jokes about converting pop superstar’s dad to Chiefs side

Travis Kelce, the tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, has been romantically involved with pop star Taylor Swift for a few months. This has led to Taylor changing her support from the Eagles to the Chiefs. However, what stirred more controversy among fans was the perceived betrayal of Taylor’s father, Scott Swift, a devoted Eagles fan.

Scott Swift has long been a die-hard Eagles fan but he was recently spotted in a Chiefs lanyard with Travis Kelce, which triggered fans to call him a traitor. Travis Kelce has recently shared how he led this to happen. 

Travis Kelce playfully converts Taylor Swift’s dad to Chiefs fandom

Taylor Swift switching teams for her boyfriend is acceptable, but Travis Kelce has shared that he has also lured Taylor’s dad, Scott Swift, into the Chiefs fanbase. 

While talking on his podcast, New Heights, the TE talked to his brother Jason Kelce about Scott Swift. 

Jason jokingly criticized Scott for letting Kelce’s charm and relationship with Taylor influence his fandom, highlighting the humorous dynamic between the two.

“You’re gonna let this man’s devilishly good looks and relationship with your daughter sway you from a life of fandom, Scott.” Jason said referring to the recent controversy over Scott being spotted in the Chiefs’ lanyard at Taylor Swift’s concert, which triggered many fans.

Travis Kelce replied, ‘Got him over to the good side baby.’ It seems like the TE has already managed to bring Scott to the Chiefs’ side after bringing her daughter.

Taylor Swift in Chiefs games has become a trend now. Every game that Taylor attends gives Travis an extra boost of confidence and helps the team win. However, one thing that fans are well aware of is that Taylor was also an Eagles fan and she even added the team’s name in one of her songs.

In a song from her ‘Evermore’ album, she clarified that the mention of “Eagles” in the lyrics refers to the NFL team, not the band. 

‘I saw some people wondering if it was the band the Eagles or the team the Eagles, and I love the band the Eagles, but guys, come on. I’m from Philly. Of course it’s the team.’

But now both Taylor and her dad only support the Chiefs because of Travis Kelce. While many Eagles fans are disappointed, the Chiefs fans have welcomed both Taylor and her dad with open arms.
