The Kansas City Chiefs are setting out to accomplish something that no team in NFL history has ever done: win a third consecutive Super Bowl. Only a few teams have won it in back-to-back years, including the Green Bay Packers whose victories in Super Bowl I and II completed a run of three straight NFL Championships.
Leading the way, of course, is two-time NFL MVP quarterback Patrick Mahomes and future Pro Football Hall of Fame tight end Travis Kelce. Even though there are a great deal of questions surrounding the quality of Kansas City’s pass catching depth, there is still a great deal of optimism surrounding the team because of those two players.
Kansas City Chiefs Stars Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes Make Headlines Off the Field
Recently Mahomes and his wife, Brittany, have been in the headlines after it was made public that they are supporting former President of the United States Donald Trump in his bid to regain office this November. Brittany lashed out at fans on social media who criticized her for retweeting some of Trump’s posts.
“To be a hater as an adult, you have to have some deep rooted issues you refuse to heal from childhood. There’s no reason your brain is fully developed and you hate to see others doing well,” Brittany wrote in a post targeted at her “haters.”
Recently, Trump posted a thank you message to the couple on his own social network, Truth Social:
“I want to thank beautiful Brittany Mahomes for so strongly defending me, and the fact that MAGA is the greatest and most powerful Political Movement in the History of our now Failing Country/ With Crime and Illegal Immigration totally out of control, INFLATION Ravaging all Americans, and a World that is laughing at the stupidity of our hapless ‘leaders,’ it is nice to see someone who loves our Country, and wants to save it from DOOM. What a great couple – See you both at the Super Bowl!”
This response to the Mahomes’ support also generated a buzz all over social media platforms, with many fans siding with the Chiefs quarterback/his wife while others have continued to be critical of the couple’s political leanings.
Travis Kelce, meanwhile, has made headlines for a far less political reason. Of course, this is because of his relationship with 14-time Grammy Award winner Taylor Swift. Ever since last September, when their relationship became public knowledge, he has been in celebrity gossip columns almost as much as he has been in ones dedicated to sports.
On Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, reports circulated that Kelce and Swift had fabricated their relationship as a PR stunt and that they are planning a public breakup later this month.
The report, of course, is a false one, and Kelce’s own PR team has hired legal counsel in an attempt to find whoever created the forged document that laid out their relationship plans.
However, one recent report regarding Swift and the Chiefs’ offense is true, confirmed by Kelce himself.
Travis Kelce Confirms that Taylor Swift Has Started Writing Plays for the Kansas City Chiefs
Last week, Mahomes raised some eyebrows when he stated, in an interview, that Swift had started drawing up plays for the Chief offense. It was part of his explanation of why she is so great to be around and that her interest in the game is genuine.
During an appearance on The Rich Eisen Show on Tuesday, Kelce revealed that what Mahomes said is true: Swift has been studying the game and has started writing up her own plays.
“She has just been so open to learning the game. She didn’t know much about the rules or anything [when we started dating]. I think what makes her so good in her profession is that she is so detailed in every aspect of it. From the words to the music, even the releases and the music videos, she so detailed in every part of it that I think she was just curious about the profession.
“And, uh, I know none of the plays [she has written] have gotten to Coach Reid yet. But if they do, I’ll make sure everyone knows it was her creation.”
Whether or not one of Swift’s plays will ever find its way into Andy Reid’s playbook remains to be seen. But it would be unwise to say it is impossible. Reid famously took a play idea from a Lambeau Field janitor while he was the quarterbacks coach of the Packers back in the late-1990s.
