Swift’s recent album, ‘The Tortured Poets Department,’ has created a stir not only among the Swifties but also in the Chiefs Kingdom. With several Kelce references littered throughout her songs, fans can’t get enough of the singer’s sweet proclamation of love for her beau, and McAfee has joined the shipping train!

That’s ‘So High School’ song,” said the analyst, referring to the singer’s new hit, which fans believe is about Kelce. He further opined how the two greats are made for each other. “And I am so happy that- because you know, since the very beginning, you see these two might be perfect for each other.” He reasoned that Swift, being extremely hardworking and one of the biggest singers in the sphere, is similar to Kelce, who is a master in the field.

McAfee also points out that while the Chiefs star’s popularity isn’t the same as the 14-time Grammy winner, Kelce isn’t afraid of being in his partner’s “shadow.” He commented, “Some of these other guys, it feels like potentially couldn’t handle the shadow. Travis is like, we’re having fun, who cares! That’s all Travis cares about.” Not only did the host express his support for the relationship, but he also had some words of admiration for the singer’s work ethic.
