Breaking News!Kim Kardashian CHALLENGES Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce for the title of NFL Supercouple if her new man that is already MARRIED signs with Kansas City Chiefs, closer to LA to be closer to Kim –
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce may soon find themselves challenged for the title of NFL supercouple, as sources reveal Kim Kardashian could be joining the singer in the stands if her new man signs with the Kansas City Chiefs.
Odell Beckham Jr, 31, is reportedly eyeing up a move from Baltimore Ravens to Travis’ beloved team in Missouri in a bid to be ‘closer’ to the reality TV star, who lives in Los Angeles.
The couple are now exclusive having first been publicly linked in September 2023, with insiders claiming the sportsman is planning a ‘future’ with the billionaire SKIMS founder, 43.
‘Odell is a free agent and is looking to sign with a team that will get him closer to LA to be closer to Kim,’ an insider told DailyMail.com exclusively.
Kim Kardashian and Odell Beckham Jr. could become the next NFL supercouple as sources claim the wide receiver is eyeing up a move to the Kansas City Chiefs to be ‘closer’ to Kim.

‘He loved his time with Baltimore and may sign with them again, but he has many more options and he is now going to use his personal life as a means of supporting his professional life.’
The insider continued: ‘Kim and Odell are firing on all cylinders and it is very simple right now between them because she can still do her thing, be a mom and he can do his thing.
‘There is no wedding bells to consider, it is just fun and physical right now. He would love to be closer to Kim as he sees a future with her.’
They finished: ‘Odell might sign with the Chiefs, and we all know what that would mean. Kim and Taylor in the same building – talk about fireworks.’
Odell is currently weighing up options following his most recent season with the Baltimore Ravens – with former NFL star Robert Griffin III suggesting that he would be a great addition to the Chiefs as they get ready to defend their Super Bowl title next season.
‘The @chiefs SHOULD SIGN Odell Beckham Jr,’ he wrote on X. ‘Last year he proved he is STILL DYNAMIC after being 8th in the NFL averaging 16.1 yards per catch.
‘The @Chiefs struggled with drops last year, but @obj had the lowest drop rate of his career with 1 drop on 64 targets (1.6%). Chief him.’
Odell landed in Baltimore last year after returning from an ACL injury, which he sustained during the LA Rams’ Super Bowl victory in 2022 before he was ruled out of the entire 2022-23 season.

Kim attended the Super Bowl in Las Vegas earlier this month, while Taylor supported Travis and the Chiefs in a separate box.

If he does sign with the Chiefs, and Kim joins Taylor, 34, in the box with her pal Brittany Mahomes, it will mark eight years since their very bitter public feud.
Back in 2016 Kim’s ex-husband, rapper Kanye West, released his track Famous which included a vulgar reference to Taylor.
The Bad Blood singer took offence and called him out for the lyrics – to which Kim chose to release a partial recording of a phone call between Kanye and Taylor about the song.
Taylor hit back, claiming that while Kanye spoke through some of the lyrics on the call, he never said that he would call her a ‘b***h.’
The Bad Blood hitmaker opened up on the ordeal during her interview with TIME last year, after she was named the magazine’s Person of the Year in December.

The insider explained that while the couple aren’t putting too much pressure on their budding romance, Odell does ‘see a future’ with the Skims mogul
She said that the public fallout felt like ‘a career death,’ adding: ‘Make no mistake — my career was taken away from me.’
In the interview she also revealed she was dating Travis months before she first appeared at his game on September 24. It marked the same month that Kim was first linked to Odell.
She later attended his 31st birthday party in November and was pictured arriving with her younger sister, Khloe Kardashian, 39 – who reportedly briefly dated Odell in 2016.
Kim and Odell were also rumored to be at the same pre-Grammy party earlier this month with TMZ claiming they put on an amorous display at the bash.
The star-studded party was thrown by Jay-Z at the exclusive Bird Streets club and was attended by other celebrity names including Kim’ mom Kris Jenner and her boyfriend Corey Gamble.
Kim was also pictured with Odell at the Wynn Tower Suites in Las Vegas ahead of this year’s Super Bowl. Neither party has commented publicly on the relationship.
We’re not exactly sure who fell in love with whom first, but it can go down in the books as a tie – the children of Operation Breakthrough and Travis have an adorable love affair. It started in 2016, when he visited the facility at 30th and Troost.
Operation Breakthrough “provides a safe, loving and educational environment for children in poverty and empowers their families through advocacy, emergency aid and education.” The non-profit agency was founded in 1971 by Sister Corita Bussanmas and Sister Berta Sailer as a response to requests from parents in the central city for quality child care for children of the working poor.
It has, in the ensuing nearly four decades, become a beacon of hope for the city’s working midtown families. The beloved organization provides myriad programs for childhood education, children’s health, and parenting programs including emergency aid.
By the time Travis paid a visit, it seemed that most of the boxes had been checked off supporting families – all except one crucial one. Operation Breakthrough had done such a comprehensive job of helping children, but there appeared to be an opening for more assistance when it came to supporting teens. Travis’ interest in STEM education and at-risk youth merged at Operation Breakthrough, and, in 2018, his foundation – 87 and Running – funded the First Lego League robotics team there. The foundation provided $45,000 to fund materials and space for the program in OB’s new MakerCity.
Travis’ orbit around Kansas City became stronger when he recently signed on for six more years on the Chiefs football team. He then doubled down on his commitment to keep the kids of Operation Breakthrough in his sights. What had been an already fantastic relationship, including the kids and Travis reading together, shopping, talking, bonding, and creating memories, became a real commitment.
The athlete who acknowledges his own fortunate experiences with family, school, and football, wanted to make sure the teens at OB had the same opportunities he did. “I’m profoundly aware of the difference in opportunity, exposure, and privilege I grew up with compared to others. Where you live, the situation you were born into, or the color of your skin should have no impact on the dreams you can dream.” These are words from Travis that signify his true north.
The idea for Ignition Lab was born with his bright and focused desire to help teens. Travis is purchasing the muffler shop adjacent to Operation Breakthrough to provide a space for teens that combines hands-on opportunities in STEM with opportunities to develop industry-recognized skills across a variety of areas, including automotive and design, green tech, software programming, and more.
There will be 10 “Labs” dedicated to: co-working, multi-media production, electrical, green tech, maker space, additive manufacturing, fiber arts, tech, automotive/engineering, and food truck. (Food truck, we love it!)
As the Ignition Lab’s colorful brochure states, this is where “smart is cool.” Bolstered by partnerships with local non profits, the lab will “engage teens in conversations about their individual goals and help them prepare early for post-high school job training programs or college admissions.”
The Labs are a natural next step for kids who have aged out of OB’s MakerCity program. What this program is doing is providing an alternative to teens who might have nowhere to turn. What Travis and 87 and Running are doing is a version of the proverbial “teaching a man to fish.”
Travis Kelce’s gravitational pull with the kids of OB is magical. They don’t see a famous athlete in their midst, they see a caring, funny, devoted friend who gets on the floor and reads books with them, dances with them, answers personal questions from them, and takes them outside to play. Travis tells the story of how one year he didn’t have time to purchase a Christmas tree, so the kids made him one with LED lights and plastic cups! He is their north star.
Travis’ gravitas is an example for us all. Play hard, earn your right to party, be loyal to your town and fans, and when no one is looking – shine bright for the people in dark places. Commit the muscle and the money to make dreams come true… and expect nothing in return.
