Patrick Mahomes Remembers Teammates’ Reactions to Taylor Swift Dating Travis Kelce for the First Time

Patrick Mahomes is opening up about what it was like for the Kansas City Chiefs to witness their teammate begin a romance with one of the most famous women on the planet earlier this year, when none other than Taylor Swift started showing up to their games to cheer on boyfriend Travis Kelce.

And though the pairing was surprising at first, the quarterback says that the pop star is now just part of the family. “At first, I feel like everybody kind of stayed away, let [Kelce] do what he was doing,” Mahomes said in a sit-down with CBS Mornings’ Nate Burleson, which airs in full on Christmas Day at noon.

“Then he started bringing Taylor around and we realized how cool of a person she was,” he continued. “So for us, there was a couple jokes here and there at the beginning. But now, she’s just part of Chiefs Kingdom. She’s part of the team.”

Mahomes also touched on the 12-time Grammy winner’s friendship with his wife, retired soccer player Brittany Mahomes. The two women often sit next to each other in a box suite at Chiefs games, and have hung out together several times in both New York City and Kansas City.

“It’s cool that she’s embraced Brittany and they’ve built a friendship as well,” shared No. 15. “[Kelce is] lucky enough to be with a great girl, and a great woman. She’s top tier at her profession. It’s really cool to hear about and to see, and now I have a first-hand look at that through Brittany and Travis’ eyes.”

“It is really cool,” he added. “I’m glad she’s the person she is, and she and Travis match so well.”
