The Philadelphia Eagles Are Shipping Kelce & Swift — Just Not the Two That You’re Thinking
Written by djfrosty on September 26, 2023
As the internet continues to collectively squeal over Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s rumored courtship, one NFL team is making sure to celebrate their favorite Kelce-Swift couple.
On Monday night (Sept. 25), the Philadelphia Eagles posted a video clip to their X (formerly known as Twitter) account, celebrating their “favorite Kelce x Swift duo” — that is, center Jason Kelce and running back D’Andre Swift, both of whom play for the Philly team. “It hits different,” the post’s caption read.
The team had plenty of reason to celebrate the pair. During Monday night’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Swift rushed for a whopping 130 yards, helping bring the undefeated Eagles to their third straight win of the season with a 25-11 victory.
The post from the Eagles came just after Taylor Swift dominated coverage of the Kansas City Chiefs’ game against the Chicago Bears on Sunday (Sept. 24), when she sat in Travis Kelce’s suite during the game with the tight end’s mother, Donna. When Kelce scored a touchdown in the third quarter, cameras showed Swift jumping up and down while appearing to cheer “let’s f–king go!”
Jason Kelce, meanwhile, fed into the speculation surrounding rumored romance between his younger brother and the pop star last week. During an interview with Audacy’s SportsRadio 94 WIP on Wednesday (Sept. 20), Jason joked that the speculation about Travis and Taylor were “one hundred percent true,” and added that “I hope this thing goes the mile,” before insisting that he was simply poking fun.
