Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce reached the historic milestone of 11,000 career yards in just 154 games, becoming the fastest tight end in NFL history to achieve this feat. This surpassed Hall of Famer Tony Gonzalez’s previous record of 191 games and made Kelce the only player in Chiefs history to reach this milestone.
Kelce’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift, expressed her approval by liking a Chiefs post mentioning it on Instagram. The 34-year-old’s romantic involvement with Swift has garnered attention in recent months. “He’s used to fans going crazy in football, so it’s not such a shock,” a source told People.
“Taylor knows it’s a lot for anyone to handle, but Travis learned to manage it over the years with NFL fans and not let it affect him. “With Taylor’s ex Joe [Alwyn], she was so private. They’d never go outside and walk around together.
“They just stayed at her Nashville compound or her Rhode Island house. “With Travis, she’s more free and able to share her full life and she loves it.”

Despite this, Kelce’s on-field performance has been outstanding, contributing to the Chiefs’ 31-17 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. Patrick Mahomes played a crucial role, passing for 298 yards and two touchdowns. Kelce, a prominent figure in the tight end position, has also achieved impressive career stats, including being in the top four in career receptions and receiving yards, holding records for most 100-yard receiving games, and heading towards an eighth 1,000-yard season.
