Travis Kelce knows all too well how dedicated Taylor Swift’s fans are.
Now that he’s fully living in her world, he’s earned his own new crop of fans — and they’re showing their allegiance to the Kansas City Chiefs tight end. And while they may have shown their loyalty at Chiefs games before the season ended, they’ve also taken to showing their loyalty at Swift’s Eras Tour concerts.
While Swift has taken her show on the road to Australia and now Singapore, her fans have turned up wearing #87 jerseys. Travis and his brother, Jason Kelce, have taken notice.

“There was a good amount,” Travis said to his brother on this week’s episode of their New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce podcast. “There’s a good American football crowd out there [in Australia]. And, I think, just Taylor fans, so they wanted to show their support.”

Kelce, 34, also praised Swift, 34, after his trip to Australia to watch her during her Eras Tour.
“A lot of false media being tossed out there. But I’ll tell you what wasn’t false, and it was when I landed in Australia and seen all the cameras,” Travis said.
Describing the zoo he visited in Sydney with Swift, the NFL star added, “There were full-on helicopters just flying around. They helicoptered us! Well, not us, Taylor.”
“This is all because Taylor is the biggest and the best thing possible,” Travis added.

The Chiefs’ defensive coach Dave Merritt would agree that Swift is pretty great and has made a “positive” impact on Travis.
Merritt, 52, appeared on an episode of The Sports Shop Podcast With Reese & K-Mac at the end of February, where he discussed the “Karma” singer’s influence.
“I felt like she actually added to what it was that we were trying to do,” Merritt began.
Explaining that “because there were so many people that were hating the fact that she was being shown on the TV,” the Chiefs players and coaches embraced her as “part of our family because you’re with Travis.”
“So, therefore, you’re our little sister…. You’re part of our family,” Merritt said.
The Kansas City defensive coach said that Swift “actually affected the team in a positive way” during their season. “It wasn’t a negative way. Everybody was excited and Travis was happy. So when my player, a brother, is happy beside me, that helps me and that encourages me, and so Travis came in there a different man. So, she helped us.”
