watch : Travis Kelce’s Subtle Gesture to Taylor Swift
Last September, the NFL player went public with their romance, and ever since their fans have analyzed the couple’s every move.
Kelce, a tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, spoke to the newly recruited running back for the Philadelphia Eagles, Saquon Barkley, in Wednesday’s episode of Kelce’s New Heights podcast. Barkley spoke about his dreams to one day star in a boxing film and other aspirations he’s had.
“I’m big on speaking things into existence,” Barkley began. Kelce agreed, saying, “Oh yeah, you got to” and turned to smile at the camera.
Swifties, as the pop star’s fans are known, were convinced this was a gesture to Swift and how hard he worked to woo her.
“I love it. He never let’s an opportunity slip to acknowledge her,” said a post on the fan account @swiftiecorners on X (formerly Twitter).
And @AllinderLi81282 added: “Travis Kelce smirked as @saquon talked about making things happen! Like “like I did it too.” This man is badass and I love it!!”
One account, @DaOtterside, even made a video montage of supposed evidence proving Kelce had long been “manifesting” his relationship with Swift, as her song “Mastermind” played. The lyrics say: “And now you’re mine / It was all by design.”
“Travis Kelce’s knowing look when Saquon Barkley talks about manifesting things into existence… This edit elucidates what a Mastermind Trav has been while courting Taylor Swift. Enjoy ,” the caption read.
