Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s relationship is reportedly being tested as the NFL star deals with football loss.
With Kelce’s team eliminated from the 2025-2026 NFL playoffs, sources said Radaronline that Swift’s friend is taking it “pretty badly.”
“Like any top athlete, Travis is all about winning, so when things don’t go the team’s way he takes it pretty badly,” the insider said.
They added, “The losses are affecting Taylor because she’s living out all those emotions with him.”
According to the sources, Kelce and Swift have “been in the know for so long” and therefore “this is uncharted territory for them.”
“They are not this golden couple who can wave a magic wand at anything and come out on top,” they noted.
For those who don’t know, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce started dating in the summer of 2023, when both were at the height of their careers. The Lover hitmaker had successfully kicked her off Eras tour at the time and the American football tight end was coming off two recent Super Bowl victories and a third win, as Swift cheered from the stands.
Now the source said, “The last thing Travis wants is to have a bad season. Travis throws his heart and soul into every game,” especially after dismissing rumors of his retirement.
Swift and Kelce got engaged on August 26, 2025. The source noted that the Empty space singer includes her boyfriend in all the details, adding: “Overall things are going great between them, but like any couple they are learning to deal with the ups and downs.”
