Andy Reid pulled back the curtain for fans on how it was for the team handling Travis Kelce dating one of the most famous women in the world in his latest interview.
The Kansas City Chiefs legendary coach opened up on how it was with Kelce and Taylor Swift dating during the season and shared an epic cooking story that fans dub “an absolute chess move.”

Reid sat down with NBC Sports Chris Simms and Mike Florio and shared his thoughts on the events surrounding his player’s iconic romance.
Simms asked the three-time Super Bowl-winning head coach if there “was ever a moment during the year you were like ‘woah this is too much for us.'”
Reid expressed that he had a previous relationship with Swift’s parents and had met Taylor before, and he had no concerns despite her enormous social status.
“I really didn’t worry about it. I knew her dan and mom and met her when she was young,” Reid said.
“Since the queen has passed away, she might be the most famous woman in the world. She’s so grounded for who she is.”
Reid felt Swift used the games as an outlet from her busy schedule with music.
“I think it’s a great escape for her, where she can come [to games]. She sincerely enjoys the games,” Reid stated.
The future Hall of Fame coach also shared an epic story of how Swift instantly won over the team with a baking gesture to the offensive line.
“And kind of behind the scenes, she likes to cook, so she made the offensive linemen these homemade Pop-Tarts,” Reid said.
“So, it was over. She knew right where to go …She didn’t give me one, and the offensive linemen definitely didn’t give me one,” Reid joked.
NFL fans flooded social media with reactions to the story of Swift baking for the team, and many were left in awe.
“Homemade pop tarts for the boys is an absolute chess move. Super W,” this fan said.
“I don’t listen to Taylor’s music, but this is just a phenomenal story,” another shared.
“She knew she had to win the O-line approval. Smart,” a third said.
“I mean… homemade pop tarts for the offensive linemen? Pure brilliance. Checkmate!” a fourth declared.
The music star has appeared at multiple Chiefs games since she and Travis began dating.
Swift appeared at every one of the Cheifs playoff games and was seen on the field kissing Kelce after the Cheifs knocked off the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 to win the Super Bowl.
