Travis Kelce’s teammate reveals what Taylor Swift said to him after Super Bowl-winning catch
Travis Kelce’s teammate Mecole Hardman Jr. revealed what Taylor Swift said to him after his Super Bowl-winning catch.
“She was like, ‘Good job, proud of you, good Game.’ Like, ‘Man, it was crazy,'” the wide receiver — who caught a touchdown pass from Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes to seal the team’s third Super Bowl win in five seasons — said on the “Pivot Podcast” Tuesday.
“Then she said something about doing these magic tricks.”
Hardman, 25, said he met the “Bad Blood” singer, 34, earlier in the season at a get-together hosted by her boyfriend, Kelce, also 34.
At that party, Hardman impressed Swift with a magic trick involving a deck of cards.
“[When] I first met her, I was doing magic tricks with the cards — I got a few tricks I can do with the cards — and she was like, ‘This is crazy,’ and every time she sees me, she talks about it,” he added.
“So then she was like, man, you and these cards, your hands are magical, something she was saying like that.”
Hardman added, “That was kinda cool, her saying that.”
Since the Chiefs tight end and the Grammy winner went public with their romance in September, she has been receiving lots of love from members of the Chiefs organization.
Mahomes — who previously admitted that the Chiefs initially made fun of Kelce’s new romance with Swift — said he realized “how cool of a person she was sand is” after spending time with her.
“Now, she’s just part of Chiefs Kingdom and she’s part of the team,” the 28-year-old told “CBS Mornings” in December.
Kelce’s teammate Rashee Rice also thanked the billionaire pop star for her staunch “support” of the Chiefs, adding that she “brought a lot more fans to the team.”

Additionally, Chiefs head coach, Andy Reid, said he was “happy” for Kelce that he found a “good girl.”
“And there has been no distraction that way at all, and Trav’s handled it right, she’s handled it right and we just move forward,” he said on the “Let’s Go!” podcast in December.
“So it hasn’t been a problem at all.”
