Taylor Swift Sends Heartfelt Message Amid Travis Kelce Retirement Decision
Taylor Swift never seemed like the sporty type, but that changed when she met Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, who’s now her future husband. Now, Swift knows all about football, and she’s a regular at Chiefs games, her most recent being the team’s Christmas Day game on December 25, 2025, at Arrowhead Stadium, where the Chiefs took on the Denver Broncos and lost with a 20-13 final score.
Now, Swift is more than a musician. She’s also something of a sports enthusiast. Of course, she still releases new music, her latest being her 12th studio album, “The Life of a Showgirl,” which dropped on October 3, 2025. But, she also appreciates the discipline and strength it takes to be an athlete.
With that in mind, as Kelce is making his retirement decision and deciding if he wants to stay in the NFL for one more year, Swift is honoring athletes around the globe. On Friday, February 6, Swift took to social media to send out a special message to those athletes.
