Patrick Mahomes Praises Taylor Swift for Learning Football Amid Travis Kelce Romance…

Patrick Mahomes praised Taylor Swift for learning about football amid her romance with teammate Travis Kelce.

“Taylor’s probably the most down-to-earth person that’s been on that stage for that long,” Patrick, 28, said while speaking to TIME for his 100 Most Influential People profile published on Tuesday, April 16.

After noting that Taylor, 34, is “never not working,” the professional athlete said that she took her role as a WAG seriously by learning about football. “Even when she’s talking about football, when she’s learning it, you can see her business mind putting it together,” Patrick explained. “It’s almost like she’s trying to become a coach. ‘Why can’t you try this, this, and this?’ She’s asking the right questions.”

Not only did Patrick praise Taylor for expressing interest in the sport, but he acknowledged how hard she works to have a successful career. “Even when she’s taking her downtime, she’s working on something,” the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback continued. “Shooting a music video or singing a song or writing a song. You can see it by how she talks.”

Patrick and his wife, Brittany Mahomes, got to know the “Cruel Summer” singer well when she started dating Travis, 34. After the pair confirmed their romance in September 2023, Taylor became a member of Chiefs Kingdom and regularly started attending Travis’ games. Not only has she spent time with the couple at celebrations, but Taylor was regularly spotted watching the games in suites with Brittany, 28, during the recent season
