Travis Kelce's teammate revealed how he reacted when Taylor Swift watched him play for the first time.

Speaking on the latest episode of the "Like a Farmer" podcast, Kansas City Chiefs long snapper James Winchester looked back when Swift attended a team's game and watched Kelce play for the first time.

"My first response was, 'That's pretty cool,' so I walked up to Trav in the game and we were on the sideline and I just said, 'Hey man, that's cool she's here,'" he recalled. "He's like, 'Wait, what do you mean? Did they put her up on the Jumbotron or something?'"

Kelce learned that "The Tortured Poets Department" singer Swift had arrived at Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri through the team's assistant equipment manager, Jay White, who passed along the news.

According to Winchester, the tight end was "kind of smiling, like, kind of blushing" after hearing the news.


From that day, Swift reportedly won Kelce immediately.

"Later on, we're walking up the ramp and him and her go get in the cart, so we're walking by and made some jokes to him on the way," Winchester shared during his podcast appearance. "Later that night, [we] got to meet her and the first thing she said [was], 'Hey, you're the guys with the cute kids, because we had my son and daughter out on the field. I'm like, 'Dang, I think I just became a T Swift fan."

Swift and Kelce first sparked dating rumors when the latter attended her Eras Tour stop at Kansas City's Arrowhead Stadium.

In a July episode of his "New Heights" podcast, he revealed how he tried to connect with the "Cruel Summer" singer when he watched the concert.

"I was disappointed that she doesn't talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings," Kelce said, "so I was a little butt-hurt I didn't get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her. She doesn't meet anybody, or at least she didn't want to meet me, so I took it personal."

But after a few weeks, they were seen in public several times and the outings seemingly confirmed their romance.
