Taylor Swift felt fear when Travis Kelce made decision not to retire from NFL, according to reports…..see more

Following the Kansas City Chiefs heartbreaking Super Bowl 59 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, speculation swirled about Travis Kelce’s future in the NFL.

The star tight end openly admitted on his New Heights podcast that he wasn’t sure if he wanted to continue playing after the crushing defeat.

Instead of making a quick decision, Kelce took his time to reflect on his future in football and whether it was time to hang up his cleats.

Kelce ultimately decided to return for another season, but his uncertainty reportedly had a major impact on his girlfriend, pop superstar Taylor Swift.

Despite the emotional toll of the Super Bowl loss, Kelce eventually decided he wasn’t ready to step away from football just yet.

On the latest episode of New Heights, he explained his thought process behind returning for at least another year.

“I still feel like I can play it at a high level and possibly at a higher level than I did last year.

I don’t think it was my best outing,” Kelce said.

“I think I let my guys down in a lot more moments than I helped them, especially if you look at my track record and how I’ve been in years past… I got a bad taste in my mouth in how I ended the year and how well I was playing and how accountable I was to the people around me.”

Taylor Swift’s concerns
According to a Radar Online report, Swift was deeply invested in Kelce’s decision, as it had significant implications for their relationship and future plans.

A source close to the 14-time Grammy winner revealed to Radar Online that Swift was anxious about which direction Kelce would take.

“Taylor is really gripped by fear over which way he’s going to jump because it has big ramifications for their relationship, but also, it is totally his call,” the insider noted.

“Travis is totally adamant that Taylor would never pressure him into anything, insisting she’ll support whatever he decides – but let’s be real, it’s no secret she’s itching to settle down.”

Radar Online also claimed that Swift feared public backlash if Kelce had chosen to retire.

With her level of fame and influence, many would have likely speculated that she was behind his decision to walk away from the game.
