TAYLOR Swift hasn’t been at the last two Kansas City Chiefs games, but she’s been by Travis Kelce’s side during his early-season struggles.
Kelce is off to a slow start this season, but Swift is making sure he gets through it.

Through the first three games of this season, Kelce was off to the worst start of his professional career.
“Struggling in terms of stats,” Travis said to his brother Jason on the latest edition of their New Heights podcast.
“I was still playing winning football.
“That’s all that f***ing matters.”

He had just eight catches for 69 yards, and had yet to score a touchdown on the season.
Things looked grim for the Chiefs tight end after the team’s Week 3 win over the Atlanta Falcons, as he only registered four catches for 30 yards.
During that game, Kelce was spotted on the sideline with a sad look on his face, causing many fans to call for him to retire.
Clearly, Swift noticed that her boyfriend was having a tough time, and she flew out to Kansas City to console him, according to Dailymail.com.
Celebrity gossip podcast Deux Moi later confirmed that Swift was in town, claiming that her and Kelce privately dined at Japanese restaurant Noka in Kansas City.
“The restaurant was claiming it was closed for maintenance but it’s the same restaurant where Britanny Mahomes had her birthday dinner not very long ago,” the podcast claimed.
While Swift hasn’t been at the last two Chiefs games, her relationship with Kelce isn’t in jeopardy, and her latest visit may have sparked something in his play.
After Swift’s Week 3 visit, Kelce had his best game of the season in Week 4.
He caught seven passes for 89 yards in the Chiefs’ 17-10 win over the Los Angeles Chargers.
Kelce is still searching for his first touchdown of the season, but he’s showing signs of improvement.
It is the right time for him to start improving too, as the Chiefs lost wide receiver Rashee Rice to injury in Week 4.
‘Well-talked-about personal life’
Travis Kelce was asked about his relationship with Taylor Swift during an interview with Good Morning America.
But the Kansas City Chiefs tight end gave a cagey response.
“When you have good family and friends around you, it makes that aspect of life that much easier,” Kelce told GMA.
“I’ve always been a very grounded guy. It might not come off that way when I’m playing football.
“But off the field, I just want to be a genuine person. I try not to get too far down the road.
“Because you never know what opportunities are going to present themselves.”
Head coach Andy Reid thinks rookie Xavier Worthy will step up to the challenge, but other guys like Kelce will be ready to help.
“We’ll see how he does,” Reid said about Worthy.
“We’ve got guys here that have experience of playing in the game.
“It’s not that he’s the only one. He doesn’t have to be the only one.
“We’ve got a good group of guys there that we can utilize.
“We normally spread the ball around, and that’s what we’ll continue to strive to do.”
