It’s a good thing Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were able to spend Thanksgiving together.
Because this might be their last chance to get in any quality holiday season until the New Year.
Yes, we’re afraid we have some bad news for fans who were hoping Travis would surprise Taylor with an engagement ring this Christmas.
(Obviously, fans will be thrilled with his engagement news each season of the year. But hopes have been especially high in recent weeks, following news that Travis’ fellow NFL star Josh Allen proposed to Taylor’s girlfriend, Hailee Steinfeld.)
Yes, once again, work commitments interfere with Taylor and Travis’ love story. But they seem to be making the most of the situation.
Travis Kelce’s busy Christmas
The Kansas City Chiefs are set to face the Pittsburgh Steelers on Christmas Day.
The Steelers have gained steam in the last week and could present a challenge to Travis and the Chiefs, who will be playing on just four days’ rest.
But more important to our discussion today is the fact that the game will be played at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh.
And as you may already know, Taylor has not has been watching Travis’ away games for the past few weeks.
Will Taylor be at Travis’ Christmas Game?
Now, it is possible that this time he will make an exception.
After all, it is Christmas; Pennsylvania is her home state, and Pittsburgh is just a short private jet away from Taylor’s current primary residence in New York.
(Though it’s worth noting that Taylor seems to spend much of her time living with Travis in Kansas City.)
Page Six reports that it is “unlikely” that Taylor will be in PA on game day. So Swifties probably won’t find their favorite on newsstands on Christmas Day.
And the world’s most famous couple may not be able to spend Christmas together.
Eyes on the prize
But Travis isn’t complaining and is focused on bringing home a W.
“I will play whenever, wherever. I just know that I’m so lucky to be able to play this game that I’m going to love every time I play on this field,” he said on this week’s episode of the “New Heights” podcast.
“I think it will make it feel a lot better if we can come off this little three-game streak with three wins. Make us feel a little more confident that we can do it against some of the best teams week in and week out.”
As for the rumors of Travis retiring after this season, the tight end may have fallen short after last Sunday’s win against the Browns in his hometown of Cleveland.
“I’ve only played there twice in 12 years, so unless we throw ourselves out there in the next couple, I don’t see it ever happening again,” he said on the podcast.
Some fans have taken this remark as a sign that Travis intends to play for a few more years.
But with how much he has on his plate these days, we wouldn’t be surprised to see him hang up his buttons — especially if the Chiefs make history by winning a third straight Super Bowl in February.
