Taylor Swift has dated some of the biggest names but Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce tried to shoot his shot at the superstar, but he failed. Kelce recalled the story on his New Heights podcast alongside his brother Jason.

She doesn’t meet anybody — or at least she didn’t want to meet me, I took it personal.” Jason then hilariously responded that she’s an Eagles fan and was hurt that Travis and the Chiefs defeated her team in the Super Bowl. Maybe now that this story is out there, Taylor will reconsider –LINK
