Can Travis Kelce reconcile football and Taylor Swift? His coach believes so

It is a big task to juggle all the distractions when you are so famous and busy than Travis Kelce. His job on the football field takes priority. He thrives and gives everything for the game and his teammates on the Kansas City Chiefs.

But Travis also has to juggle his off-field responsibilities. He’s in the world’s most high-profile relationship with the world’s biggest artist, Taylor Swift. That comes with wild public speculation, unnecessary drama, and invasion of privacy from paparazzi. And that’s not even mentioning the basic behind-the-scenes responsibilities of a relationship. It’s easy to wonder if it’s all a bit too much when one of his roles starts to wane. His coach, Andy Reid, believes Kelce can handle it all.

Andy Reid talks about the necessary balance between Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift

Recently, Andy Reid did a podcast interview with Dianna Russini. Of course, the great relationship between Kelce and Swift comes up. Ultimately, Andy Reid never worries about Travis’ commitment to football and his team. “He can handle it. I think it’s a great way for him to get away from it all,” says Reid. “I’ve said that about Taylor too – she comes to the games, she can kind of escape the pressure of being the show. And when he goes to her concerts, she’s the star and he can hang out and be the support or the water carrier.”

Ultimately, it’s the role play that Reid finds important. In many ways, the relationship between Travis and Taylor can be compared to football. Kelce isn’t making plays on defense in addition to his work as a tight end. He has to have confidence in the defense and also watch the plays on the sideline. Likewise, Travis can step into the background and support Taylor when she’s in the spotlight. Conversely, Taylor gracefully steps away when it’s time for Kelce to step into the spotlight.
