Travis Kelce gives typically cheeky response to Taylor Swift proposal question at press conference
Countless bookies are accepting bets on whether the Super Bowl at Allegiant Stadium on Sunday will result in a Kelce-Swift proposal. And now the Kansas City star has responded to the speculation on Super Bowl opening night. “Is there going to be another ring besides the Super Bowl ring if you win on Sunday?” one reporter asked Kelce, referring to a potential engagement ring.
Kelce gave a typically cheeky response insisting he was purely focused on one kind of ring – a Super Bowl ring- as things stand. “I’m focus one getting this ring and that’s all my mind’s focused on,” he replied. The two-time Super Bowl winner recently appeared on the Pat McAfee Show where he discussed his whirlwind romance with the ‘Bad Blood’ singer. “It’s exciting for me, but it’s all brand new, man,” Kelce said.
“From having the paparazzi follow me every single day into work, to just everybody having my name on their talk show every single day – whether it’s sports, whether it’s not sports, you know – it’s just been a crazy, crazy ride I could have never anticipated.” “But I’m having fun with it,” he added. “The majority of the world is having fun with it… All the cranky NFL fans, we’re slowly bringing them in.”
Tay Tay’ has become a regular fixture at Chiefs games this season and celebrated with Kelce on the field after Kansas City’s win over the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Championship game. Swift is reportedly set to attend Super Bowl LVIII even though she has a concert scheduled in Toyko, Japan, on February 10, which is the night before the Vegas event.
According to NFL Network, Swift plans to make a cross-Pacific flight to watch Kelce and the Chiefs in person in Las Vegas. Barring flight issues, a direct route from Tokyo after her concert would allow Swift to arrive in Las Vegas about 7 p.m. local time the night before the Chiefs’ big game. Kelce and the Chiefs are into their fourth Super Bowl in five years and take on the San Francisco 49ers in Sunday’s showpiece event.
KC are looking to go back-to-back as champions having won the Super Bowl last year against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Chiefs are trying to become the first team to win back-to-back Super Bowls since the 2004-2005 New England Patriots.
