Dating rumors surrounding Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce made waves both on and off the football field during Sunday's game, creating quite the buzz in the NFL world. As Travis made a spectacular touchdown catch in the end zone, announcer Ian Eagle added a touch of pop culture to his commentary, saying:

"Kelce finds a blank space for the score."

This clever reference was a nod to Taylor Swift's hit song, Blank Space, and it captured the attention of fans and media alike.

As per the Mirror, Kelce made headlines when he attended one of Swift's concerts and openly shared his unsuccessful attempts to meet the singer and present her with a bracelet. Since then, speculations about the two of them dating have been swirling on social media.

In recent weeks, rumors of the two hanging out in New York City have surfaced, adding fuel to the dating speculations. Neither party, however, has addressed the matter as of now.

Following Ian Eagle's announcement during the game on Sunday, fans of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have taken to social media platforms to not only praise the witty remark but also to express their excitement about the pop star and sports personality potentially getting together.
