The NFL is continuing to milk the Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift love story big-time … formally dubbing the Chiefs star “Travis Swift” in an official video it put out this week.
The league dropped its nickname for the Kansas City tight end in a YouTube clip that previewed the Chiefs’ upcoming wild-card round game against the Dolphins.

In the footage — which was posted Tuesday night — a narrator can be heard explaining that Miami will have to “take on Travis Swift Kelce” when it heads to Arrowhead Stadium on Saturday.
The league then flashed to a shot of Swift laughing and hanging out in a suite at one of Kelce’s games earlier this season.
The video received a mixed reaction from fans who caught the quip … with some calling it disrespectful — while others loving it for Swift.
Of course, the Chiefs and the NFL have been pulling moves like these ever since Swift first showed up at a Kelce game in September … changing their X page backgrounds and even making a Hallmark movie-themed game preview that had Swift Easter Eggs inside of it.
Don’t forget just how magical the postseason can be ✨

It’s not yet known if Taylor will be there for this weekend’s big game … though given the way she’s attended just about every other one of her new man’s tilts this season — expect a whole lot more Swift coverage come Saturday night!
