Travis Kelce Reveals the ‘Craziest Part' of Dating Taylor Swift
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is entering his 13th NFL season and his third since he began dating 14-time Grammy winner Taylor Swift.
He's already totaled 1,004 receptions for 12,151 receiving yards and 77 touchdowns — and he's not done yet.
On the personal side, Kelce's life changed significantly in 2023 when he and Swift made things public. While he was already widely recognized as one of the greatest tight ends in NFL history, his fame skyrocketed to a new level.
The three-time Super Bowl champion has been under a microscope in the public eye, much like Swift has been throughout her career.
Kelce spoke about that aspect of his relationship on the latest episode of the "Bussin' With The Boys" podcast, calling it the "craziest part."
"Yeah, it's just the being, I don't want to say being, it's just the paparazzi that's probably the only thing I didn't really grasp until you're in it, and that's probably the craziest part though. Like I'm just playing golf and all of a sudden in the trees there's a [expletive] guy with a camera and you're just like 'Oh [expletive], like I got to go to the restroom now I can't just go over here,' You know what I mean? Never been ashamed of slamming beers, just don't want my meat on Page Six."
Kelce has a point. He's always been outgoing and open, but now he has to be mindful that anything he says or does can be all over the internet within minutes.
With Chiefs training camp starting in three weeks, that only means one thing: the public appearances won't stop and TV broadcasts will soon be back to showing Swift in her suite at Kelce's games, supporting him as he looks to win his fourth Super Bowl.

Fever's Bonus Money for Upset Win Over Lynx on Tuesday Draws Attention
Fever's Bonus Money for Upset Win Over Lynx on Tuesday Draws Attention originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Fever played without Caitlin Clark on Tuesday against the Minnesota Lynx in the final of the Commissioner's Cup series, and managed to pull off a surprising upset in convincing fashion, 74-59. Advertisement In most sports, players tend to yawn their way through gimmicky in-season tournaments, but in the WNBA, it's a bit more of a big deal. That is because in a league where players typically earn less than $150,000 per season, the $30,000 in bonus money is significant. At The Athletic, the payout for the teams was laid out: "A $500,000 prize pool is awarded to the championship winners, and Coinbase commits an additional $120,000 in cryptocurrency to the prize pool. The respective pools are then split between players on the roster. Indiana has 11 players, and Minnesota has 12. "Players receive more money in bonuses for winning the Commissioner's Cup than for winning the WNBA championship. According to the league's CBA, WNBA champions receive $11,356 bonuses per player, and runners-up receive $5,678 per player."

Mandatory Credit: Jesse Johnson-Imagn Images That is, naturally, an oddity--the Fever won more money on Tuesday than they would for winning a title. Additionally, each team plays for a charity. On Tuesday, the league laid out on Twitter/X just how those payouts go for the participants in the Commissioner's Cup final. Advertisement "Here's what the Fever and Lynx are playing for tonight! Fever - Peace Learning Center Lynx - ACLU Minnesota The winner of the Commissioner's Cup Championship presented by @Coinbase will take home an additional $10k for their charity, while the team that comes in 2nd place will take home and additional $5k for theirs." The Fever were led by Natasha Howard, with 16 points and 12 rebounds. She was awarded the game's MVP trophy as she helped wear down a stout Minnesota interior defense, aided by forward Aliyah Boston, who had 12 points, 11 rebounds and six assists. The Fever are now 9-8, and the Lynx drop to 14-3.

Messages Are Pouring in After Jayson Tatum's 6-Word Post on Friday
Messages Are Pouring in After Jayson Tatum's 6-Word Post on Friday originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Everything changed for the Boston Celtics when Jayson Tatum ruptured his Achilles against the New York Knicks in the Eastern Conference Semifinals this past season. They went from a perennial championship contender to a team in limbo, and they didn't waste time making changes after the season. Advertisement Boston traded Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis before Wednesday's draft, two crucial contributors to its 2024 title-winning team. The moves got the organization under the second apron, which increases its flexibility with free agency and trades. Meanwhile, Tatum is rehabbing his Achilles injury and will likely miss the entirety of next season. The six-time All-Star posted a message about it on Friday night via social media.

"The comeback is gonna be a movie. Keep going JT," another said. "Praying for you GOAT," another said. Tatum never had a serious injury in his NBA career before this one. The 27-year-old averaged 26.8 points on 45.2 percent shooting (34.3 percent 3 PT) with 8.7 rebounds and six assists over 36.4 minutes this past season. He also averaged 28.1 points on 42.3 percent shooting (37.2 percent 3 PT) with 11.5 rebounds and 5.4 assists over 40.3 minutes in the playoffs.
