Travis Kelce laughs at those who don’t believe his romance with Taylor Swift is real.
“You’re all crazy,” the 34-year-old Kansas City Chiefs tight end told CBS reporter Tracy Wolfson. during an interview on the 2024 Super Bowl pregame show.
He laughed and added, “Every last one of you, you’re crazy.”

Elsewhere in his interview with Wolfson, Kelce talked about moments when the team struggled — seemingly referring to the Christmas game in which he threw his helmet to the side in anger.
Since then, the Chiefs have made a turnaround and are now nearing the pinnacle of the NFL season if they win the title on Sunday — and all is not lost on the NFL star, with Swift by his side.
“It was an unexpected ride that I was really excited about,” Kelce said.
