The Kansas City Chiefs kicker is opening up about his meeting with Swift.
Travis Kelce’s teammate, Harrison Butker, only wants the best for him and Taylor Swift.

In a recent interview with EWTN News in Depth, the Kansas City Chiefs kicker, 28, opened up about his first meeting with the “Bad Blood” songstress, 34.

“I wouldn’t say I’m a Swiftie, but I got to meet her after our New Year’s game,” Butker recalled. “And I rarely go out ever… I went to a party — and this was very tame, I wore a suit and tie to the party — but Travis showed up and Taylor was there and I got to meet her and she was just so humble and so gracious.”

“I don’t think she grew up a football fan, so everything to her is so cool — especially as a kicker, she thinks that’s amazing that I can kick the ball so far through the uprights,” he continued. “I was a little nervous to meet Taylor Swift. I mean, it’s Taylor Swift. So maybe I am a Swiftie if I was nervous to meet her. It was a great experience and I can’t say enough great things about her.”
