Have you heard the news, yet?
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is dating — or as the kids say "seeing" — a woman named Taylor Swift.
The rumors had been swirling for weeks. Kelce has a podcast with his brother Jason Kelce and it had been hard for them to keep it a secret.
Jason confirmed on the radio late last week that the two had been talking.
Travis then went on the Pat McAfee Show and gave away his move, "I told her, 'I've seen you rock the stage at Arrowhead maybe you have to see me rock the stage at Arrowhead.'"
Well, Swift took the younger Kelce up on his offer. She was in attendance for the Chiefs' game against the Bears, sitting next to Kelce's mother in a suite.
And it blew up the internet.
Kelce has been the best tight end in the NFL for almost half a decade now. He has far and away put up the best numbers of any tight end over the last five years.
But that hasn't allowed him to get into the MVP conversation. Mostly due to the man throwing him the football, Patrick Mahomes, dominating the conversation himself. The MVP has notoriously been a quarterback award.
Kelce opened the season with 150-1 odds to win the MVP at BetMGM. His odds moved to 250-1 when the news of his dating life was exposed (Kelce had also been dealing with an injury). He is currently still 250-1 at BetMGM after he had seven catches for 69 yards and a touchdown against the Bears.
Kelce is +5000 after opening at +3000 to win Offensive Player of the Year, which is an award that typically deters away from quarterbacks.
