Does Travis Kelce know something we don’t know? Taylor Swift may be in the middle of performing a run of eight sold-out shows at Wembley Stadium in London, but boyfriend Travis appeared to be in his Reputation era 4,300 miles away in Kansas City, possibly hinting at the release of Reputation (Taylor’s Version).
The NFL star is playing his first preseason game of the 2025/2025 season with the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday August 17, and as he arrived at Arrowhead Stadium he was showing his support, wearing black shirts with a red trim and a black tee with white trim.
Black and white are the color scheme for the 2017 album, while it is black and red on the tour.
In 2017, on August 18 Taylor deleted her entire social media presence, and three days later, on August 21, returned to announce what would be her sixth album, Reputation.
It is thought by fans that Taylor may announce the release date of Reputation (Taylor’s Version) during this final string of five dates, potentially August 20, to tie in with the 2017 narrative.

Reputation is the sixth Taylor Swift album owned by first Big Machine Records and now Shamrock Recordings, who bought them from Ithaca Holdings; Shamrock is connected to the Walt Disney Group, as it was founded by Walt Disney’s nephew Roy.

Taylor began dating Travis in summer 2023 and they are still going strong, recently celebrating their one-year anniversary. Travis’ teammate Patrick Mahomes however recently revealed that Taylor has been changing the tight end – in ways that Patrick has long failed.

He told Fox News in February: “Taylor loves the haircut. She has watched me cut his hair a bunch of times and always compliments it after.”

The football star participated in Taylor’s “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” transition performance, appearing in a suit and top hat and helping her off the ground after she pretended to faint.
“I was up there with three professionals. You can do no wrong with Taylor on stage. [I kept telling myself], ‘Do not drop the baby. Hold onto the baby,'” he said on an episode of his New Heights podcast.
