Travis Kelce is shaking off the hate Taylor Swift received at his game over the weekend.
The Kansas City Chiefs player addressed the mixed reactions New England Patriots fans had to his girlfriend’s presence at Gillette Stadium on the latest episode of his “New Heights” podcast.
“They showed Taylor at the game,” the tight end, 34, told brother Jason Kelce on Wednesday. “You don’t see an entire home team fan base go insane for someone wearing the opposite colors.
“Just shows you how amazing that girl is,” he gushed. “They went absolutely insane when they showed Taylor on the screen.”
However, Travis acknowledged, “There might have been a few Brads and Chads that were booing. But for the most part, everyone was f–king screaming their tail off for her.”
The athlete admitted he was “trying to keep it cool” and not “show [his] cards.”
He added, “It was fun, man. … Taylor’s on record saying that stadium was one of the funnest that she’s played at. So for them to show her, shout-out to the Patriots for doing that.”
The “Catching Kelce” alum also praised the Grammy winner’s dad, Scott Swift, for attending in a “swaggy vintage” sweater.
“Mr. Swift [was] in full Chiefs gear,” Travis said. “It’s kind of looking real nice on him. … He’s rocking it. And he seems to be enjoying himself.”
The former reality star met Scott, 71, in Argentina before they attended one of Taylor’s Eras Tour performances together last month.
“I might have persuaded him [to be a Kansas City Chiefs fan] at dinner the night before when I met him,” Travis told podcast listeners in November.
Sunday’s game marked Scott’s first appearance at one of Travis’ match-ups — and the two-time Super Bowl winner emerged victorious with a 27 to 17 win.
While Taylor was caught on camera being booed by some Patriots fans on Sunday, she laughed off the negativity and chatted with pal Brittany Mahomes instead.
The pop star also went viral for tipping stadium employees with $100 bills, as well as watching with a smile as her dad gave slices of her birthday cake to fellow fans.
The songwriter has been a mainstay at Travis’ games since September when the duo hard-launched their romance — and a source tells Page Six the couple will spend the holidays together in Kansas City, Mo.
