Travis Kelce shared how he felt introducing his fiancee Taylor Swift to his teammates

Travis Kelce reached a major milestone in his life last month after he got engaged to his girlfriend and pop icon Taylor Swift. On Wednesday's episode of his "New Heights" podcast, his brother Jason Kelce asked about his feelings on being engaged.

"It's been really fun telling everybody who I'm going to be spending the rest of my life with," Travis said.

Travis and his fiancee were spotted at the College Football showdown between the Nebraska Cornhuskers and the Cincinnati Bearcats last week. The Chiefs' tight end said he felt "pretty cool" introducing Swift to his new teammates.

"It was my first time introducing Taylor as my fiancée to a few of my teammates," Kelce said.

While the buzz surrounding Travis Kelce's engagement to Taylor Swift is unlikely to simmer down anytime soon, the Chiefs tight end now turns his attention to the action on the field.
