Taylor Swift may not have been a football expert before starting to date Travis Kelce, but she's becoming one now. The 14-time Grammy winner and 3-time Super Bowl champ started dating in the summer of 2023 before getting engaged in August 2025. Swift has been a mainstay at Kansas City Chiefs home games, turning into the type of fan that yells at big plays andhas opinions on the team's draft picks. Now she's learning about NFL legends like former Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jerome Bettis.
Kelce relayed a story on the most recent episode of theNew Heightspodcast about running into Bettis at dinner in Florida. "I was like telling Tay about him like, 'That dude was a [expletive] beast.'" Kelce told his brother Jason, who agreed vociferously with the description. "He was [expletive] running dudes over."

"Because he was THE BUS," Kelce finished saying. Nailed it in one, Taylor.
