Taylor Swift is one of the most famous people in the world. Of course, Travis Kelce knew that when he started dating her. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end admitted that he knew what he was signing up for when he became Swift’s boyfriend. However, now that the new NFL season has started and he’s off to a horrendous start, the heat is on. Fans are blaming the singer as well as the athlete’s lack of dedication for his struggles through the first three games of the season.
The Daily Mail reports that Travis Kelce’s stats for the beginning of the NFL season have been well below par. The tight end is known for his impressive play on the field. However, after an offseason of partying with Taylor Swift and traveling the world, some fans believe that he’s too tired and focused on other things.
Travis Kelce Bashed For Off-Season Partying With Taylor Swift
In addition to attending several of Swift’s concerts overseas, Kelce had a huge offseason. He landed a gig in the Happy Gilmore sequel. He also filmed a role in Ryan Murphy’s new horror series Grotesquere. In addition, he hosted a game show titled Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity? So, yeah, he was busy.
Some fans believe that instead of breaking into show business and partying with Swift, that Kelce should have been in the gym and training for the season.
“When he’s making more money off the field than on the field, the incentive to go through the riggers of a football season can’t be that high,” one person pointed out.
“I kinda wondered if his partying would catch up to him. Hard to say if it’s the cause but probably doesn’t help. I live in KC. Major chiefs fan here. I hope he refocuses,” another wrote.
“She’s ruining Travis. He better dump her before she dumps him,” a third critic commented.
“They all party. the difference is his partying is splashed all over the news now,” said another.
While it seems crazy to blame Taylor Swift for Travis Kelce’s on-field performances, it’s nothing new. Haters have been criticizing the couple since they went public in 2023. However, Kelce’s play will likely need to be better if the Kansas City Chiefs want to return to the Super Bowl again this season.
