It will potentially be a historic run as well, with the Chiefs looking to become the first team in NFL history to win a third consecutive championship.<\/p>\n<p>However, leading up to this weekend&#8217;s game against the\u00a0Houston Texans, it appears that Kelce has one thing on his mind: Mega-star girlfriend\u00a0Taylor Swift.<\/p>\n<p>Kelce has talked about her in numerous interviews over the past week, giving updates on what her plans are for the game, and how she is impacting his life inside and outside of football, with even some words on his eventual retirement.<\/p>\n<p>When talking to ESPN&#8217;s\u00a0Stephen A. Smith on Wednesday, Kelce made it clear why he is talking about Swift so much, and it seems like he is a person who is truly in love, saying he &#8220;couldn&#8217;t be happier.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"m-detail--body-item m-detail--body-item-inline\">\n<figure class=\"l-inline tml-image m-detail--tml-image--inline\"><picture class=\"is-loaded\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_380\/MjEyMDkzNzA4NTk2Njg0Nzc2\/taylor-swift.webp 380w, https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_620\/MjEyMDkzNzA4NTk2Njg0Nzc2\/taylor-swift.webp 620w, https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_700\/MjEyMDkzNzA4NTk2Njg0Nzc2\/taylor-swift.webp 700w\" type=\"image\/webp\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1240px) 700px, (min-width: 675px) 620px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" \/><source srcset=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_380\/MjEyMDkzNzA4NTk2Njg0Nzc2\/taylor-swift.jpg 380w, https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_620\/MjEyMDkzNzA4NTk2Njg0Nzc2\/taylor-swift.jpg 620w, https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_700\/MjEyMDkzNzA4NTk2Njg0Nzc2\/taylor-swift.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1240px) 700px, (min-width: 675px) 620px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"m-detail--tml-image m-image\" src=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/t_share\/MjEyMDkzNzA4NTk2Njg0Nzc2\/taylor-swift.jpg\" srcset=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"Travis Kelce\" width=\"2274\" height=\"1645\" data-src=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_700\/MjEyMDkzNzA4NTk2Njg0Nzc2\/taylor-swift.jpg\" \/><\/picture><figcaption>\n<p class=\"tml-image--caption\">Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce talk.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tml-image--attribution\">Robert Deutsch-Imagn Images<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"m-detail--body-item m-detail--body-item-inline\">\n<figure class=\"m-video mm-video--landscape l-inline\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"fUQCpmJsd4o\" class=\"m-video--frame\" title=\"An interview with Travis Kelce, Drake suing his own label\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/fUQCpmJsd4o?enablejsapi=1\" width=\"598\" height=\"336\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m enjoying all aspects of life,&#8221; Kelce said on The Stephen A.
