Travis Kelce addressed viral Taylor Swift stats broadcast during Chiefs' Week 7 win - "It's hard for me"

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's budding friendship has taken the entire NFL world by storm. Swifties and NFL fans have been eagerly waiting for updates, with even the broadcasters focusing on the pop singer watching from the sidelines.

As the focus on TS increased, broadcasters at the recent Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Chargers game came through with some Kelce stats with Swift in attendance.

Apparently, Travis Kelce has 99 yards when Taylor Swift attends, and 46.5 yards when there are other family members and friends in the box. While Jason Kelce explained the stats, they spelt out the wording.

Though Kelce seemed okay with them using the stat, the tight end revealed on the New Heights podcast that it was hard for him to understand the wording.

"As it says in the, in the edit, or whatever, it is 'left to his own devices'. Well put. Well put. It kind of, it's hard for me to wrap my head around that sentence. But yeah."

Furthermore, the stat was certainly approved by Chiefs coach Andy Reid. Jason Kelce said:

"He was asked about your big game. And his response was Kelce keeps getting better with time. Taylor can stay around all she wants."

Confident that he's been doing something right, Travis Kelce added:

"When you're getting - when you're getting big Reid's approval and blessings, you know you're doing something right."

Broadcast of Taylor Swift stats for Travis Kelce's performance left fans fuming

Despite Travis Kelce's reactions, fans seemed unhappy with the stats being shown live. Expressing concern on social media, fans stated that they were embarrassed for the NFL.

"This is wild but also the NFL should be embarrased"

Having said that, many fans have been expressing concerns over the media's increased coverage of Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift at games. This includes clips from TS at the VIP box, where she has been hanging out with Kelce brothers' mom Donna, father Kelce and Patrick Mahomes' wife Brittany.

However, the two-time Super Bowl winner and Blank Space singer are yet to confirm their relationship.

Both Kelce brothers have addressed the privacy concerns, especially since people have continued to swarm Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift at public places. While speaking with NBC Sports' Peter King, Jason Kelce said:

"There’s paparazzi talking about him fueling his car before the game today and I’m like, ‘Is that really necessary information to share?’ This is another level of stardom that typically football players don’t deal with."
