'NFL Season (Taylor's Version)': Taylor Swift's lucky number 13 has fans convinced Travis Kelce is destined for NFL glory in 2025
Travis Kelce's 13th NFL season has sparked excitement, fueled by Taylor Swift's lucky number (Getty Images) Travis Kelce is entering his 13th NFL season, but this one feels different—and fans think Taylor Swift has something to do with it. With 13 being Swift's famously lucky number, the coincidence has sparked excitement among Swifties and football fans alike. Could this symbolic season mark a fairytale Super Bowl run for the Chiefs' star tight end? Fans think Taylor Swift's lucky number 13 could spark Super Bowl magic for Travis Kelce Travis Kelce is gearing up for his 13th NFL season — and Swifties are convinced that the number isn't just a coincidence. After the Kansas City Chiefs honored their star tight end with a celebratory Instagram slideshow captioned 'Lucky year 13 coming soon for @killatrav', fans immediately made a bold connection: 13 is Taylor Swift's iconic lucky number. Fans are positive about Travis Kelce's 13th NFL season (SS via Instagram) That's all it took for the Swift-Kelce fandom to erupt with predictions, memes, and some serious championship energy. 'All the Swifties 'of course it'd be year 13!' one fan @janetmccormick_ wrote. 'NFL Season (Taylor's Version),' joked @booksovrbros . 'It only makes sense that they win the SB on his 13th year,' added a hopeful user @swiftiesforeternity. From Taylor Swift's sacred number to Super Bowl dreams — the year 13 narrative is already building Taylor Swift has long associated herself with the number 13. Born on December 13, she's talked about how the number has appeared at pivotal moments in her life and career. In her early performances, she would even write '13' on her hand for good luck. So when Kelce's 13th NFL season rolled around, it seemed tailor-made for conspiracy theories and romantic destiny narratives. But this upcoming season isn't just about numerology. It's a critical moment for Kelce's legacy. His 2024 season ended in heartbreak, with the Chiefs falling 40–22 to the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl. Despite whispers of retirement, Kelce shot them down in February, saying he couldn't end on a 'bad note.' Travis Kelce's new body, new mindset, and off-field spotlight suggest a refreshed chapter Fans have noticed more than just symbolism in the number 13 — they're seeing a transformation. At the Amazon MGM Studios Upfronts this past May, Kelce revealed he dropped 25 pounds in the offseason, debuting a noticeably leaner physique. In a November 2023 interview with The Wall Street Journal, Kelce opened up about the toll of the game. 'The discomfort. The pain. The lingering injuries — the 10 surgeries I've had that I still feel every single surgery to this day,' he shared. Also Read: Taylor Swift snubs Kamala Harris plea, but plays house entertainer for Travis Kelce's NFL frat party Yet even with the physical pain and increasing Hollywood opportunities — including podcasting and acting — Kelce remains locked in for one more run. And if Swift's influence and his own mental reset are any indication, fans may be witnessing the most poetic Super Bowl win yet — one where football meets fate.
