Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s romance has often made headlines for many reasons. Along with enjoying their dating life, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end has also been training hard ahead of the upcoming NFL season. A few reports about the player losing 25 pounds during the NFL offseason had made headlines a while ago.
In a recent press conference, a reporter questioned Travis Kelce about his weight loss. The athlete chuckled and requested the attendees not to believe everything “on the internet.” He mentioned that he had “never told anybody” about losing 25 pounds.
Furthermore, Swift’s beau admitted that he has shed “some weight from the end of the season last year.” “This year, I got some time to really focus on some form running and some things early on in the offseason that I just didn’t have time for last year,” the Chiefs tight end added.
Meanwhile, the NFL star’s friend Pat McAfee highlighted the singer’s influence in Travis Kelce’s efforts to rebuild himself during the offseason. In an episode of “The Pat McAfee Show,” the host stated, “I think they continue to inspire each other, I think they continue to motivate each other. I think they continue to be great for each other.”
Apparently, the pop star’s motivation is said to help her boyfriend’s game in the upcoming season. She even stayed in Florida, where Kelce was training, to inspire him. The couple was also spotted spending some quality time there as they were photographed on a date night.
