The "Travlor" conspiracy, as it's been playfully dubbed, has sparked intrigue as reports from The Messenger suggest that Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift have been discreetly spending time together.

Kelce, a prominent figure in the Kansas City Chiefs, and Swift, the renowned musician with her record-breaking Eras Tour, found a window in their busy schedules to meet up.

The rendezvous occurred "a few weeks ago" when Swift was in New York amid Kelce's preseason commitments.

This connection between Kelce and Swift was initially hinted at during one of Kelce's podcasts, New Heights, alongside his brother Jason.

After attending one of Swift's Eras Tour concerts in Kansas City, Travis expressed his disappointment that he couldn't have a conversation with Swift, who typically doesn't meet fans before or after her shows.

Swift's fans, often called "Swifties," have a tradition of exchanging handmade friendship bracelets at her concerts.

Travis attempted to participate in this tradition by creating a bracelet and hoped to give it to Taylor Swift, even including his phone number on it.

Since the podcast episode aired, Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift dating rumors have arisen on platforms like TikTok and Twitter.

The "Travlor" buzz continues to captivate the imagination of fans and followers alike.

Taylor Swift Says She's an Eagles Fan

The "Travlor" saga might not be the only NFL-related matter here. Travis Kelce could be in some friendly competition with his brother Jason for Taylor Swift's NFL fandom.

Swift, who hails from West Reading, Pennsylvania, has previously declared her affinity for the Philadelphia Eagles, according to The Philadelphia Inquirer.

She's been photographed wearing an Eagles sweater, and one of her songs, "Gold Rush," references an "Eagles t-shirt."

While fans have debated whether she was referring to the NFL team or the rock band, Swift clarified during one of her Eras Tour shows in Philadelphia that she was talking about the football team.

She humorously noted, "I love the band the Eagles, but guys, come on. I'm from Philly. Of course, it's the team."

If it turns out that Swift is dating Travis Kelce, it could set the stage for some friendly banter and good-natured rivalry come February, especially if both the Eagles and the Chiefs happen to make it to the Super Bowl for a potential rematch.

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift Dating History

Travis Kelce's romantic history has seen an on-and-off relationship with influencer Kayla Nicole spanning five years, ultimately leading to their most recent breakup in 2022, per The Daily Mail.

Meanwhile, Taylor Swift's love life has captured considerable attention, featuring a notable list of celebrity relationships, including Jake Gyllenhaal, John Mayer, Joe Jonas, Tom Hiddleston, Taylor Lautner, and Calvin Harris.

Taylor's relationship with John Mayer came back into the spotlight this year when she released a re-recording of "Dear John," a song presumed to be about their breakup, in 2010.

This move was part of her broader strategy to regain control of her original masters amid her legal battle with Scooter Braun.

She embarked on re-recording all her previous albums, releasing "Taylor's Versions," ensuring she retained ownership rights.

Recently, she released "Taylor's Version" of her 2010 album, "Speak Now," which included the original edition of "Dear John."

During her Eras Tour last month, Taylor performed "Dear John" live for the first time in over a decade.

The song, known for its powerful lyrics about an ex's "sick need to give love then take it away," has long been associated with John Mayer.

After the song resurfaced, Taylor urged her fans not to defend her against John Mayer, but some ignored her pleas and began criticizing him online, labeling him as a "groomer" due to their relationship when he was 33 and she was 19.
