During a recent episode of his podcast, “New Heights,” Travis Kelce shared his thoughts on the NFL’s scheduling of its premier event. He expressed his astonishment at the timing of the Super Bowl on Valentine’s Day, remarking, “I don’t think I could ever remember it being that late in February.” It appears that the overlapping of a romantic holiday with a major sporting event could alter the couple’s plans for 2027.
Travis’s brother, Jason Kelce, reminisced during the podcast that similar scheduling has occurred in the past, suggesting that some couples may face the dilemma of choosing between a romantic evening and the intense energy of a Super Bowl match. Jason recalled previous years when the Super Bowl’s coinciding with Valentine’s Day made headlines, particularly amongst men who had to balance their affection for both the game and their partners.
For Travis, Valentine’s Day has always been associated with sports, specifically the NBA All-Star weekend. Reflecting on the evolving nature of Valentine’s Day plans, he noted, “I feel like I always remember Valentine’s Day being the NBA All-Star weekend.” This sports-centric view is fitting for a man who is deeply entrenched in the athletic world as a key player for the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Chiefs have had a mixed bag in recent seasons, having won two Super Bowls before failing to reach the big game in 2026, where they were bested by the Seattle Seahawks. Swift has been a visible supporter of her partner throughout, cheering him on during the Chiefs’ 2024 victory and sharing in the disappointment of their loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in 2025.
Aside from Valentine’s Day, Travis also hinted at the team’s upcoming Thanksgiving match against the Buffalo Bills, expressing his enthusiasm for holiday games. “I love the holiday games,” he remarked, indicating his affection for both football and festive traditions. However, there will be one major holiday where he won’t be on the field; the Chiefs are not scheduled to play on Christmas Day this year, allowing him the opportunity to enjoy Christmas with his family.
Jason Kelce added to this revelation, informing listeners, “You will have Christmas to be able to celebrate with family?” to which Travis responded with a laugh, confirming plans for the holiday. The Chiefs are set to commence their season with a match against the Seattle Seahawks on 9 September, following the latter’s recent Super Bowl victory.
As the season approaches, much attention is also on Travis’s training regimen, which has been described by his mother, Donna Kelce. Speaking to PEOPLE, she revealed that her son’s preparation is both rigorous and lengthy. “He always goes into his own routine with training, and it’s brutal,” Donna noted, elaborating that leading up to the official training camp is a demanding journey requiring significant dedication.
With the NFL season looming, it is clear that both Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are navigating through thrilling yet challenging times. Balancing a burgeoning relationship amid professional obligations in the spotlight is no small feat. As they move forward with their wedding plans, fans will undoubtedly be eager to see how the couple makes it all work.
As the date of the Super Bowl draws closer, many will be watching to see if this modern-day power couple can indeed find a way to make both their love and career aspirations thrive. Whether they are celebrating together at the Super Bowl or sharing a romantic dinner later in the month, one thing is for sure — their journey together is just beginning, with plenty of moments yet to unfold in both the realms of sports and love.
