On their SiriusXM podcast Let’s Go! with Tom Brady, Larry Fitzgerald, and Jim Gary, Reid—a three-time Super Bowl champion coach—told Tom Brady and Jim Gray about how he first met the 34-year-old Red vocalist.
Reid was questioned by Gray on the Chiefs’ experience with the singer’s and her followers’ unwavering support.

Reid then made a joke about how Kelce, 34, wasn’t overjoyed to find out his coach had dated his girlfriend before he did.
“So learning that I had known her before he did was the last thing Trav wanted to hear. She said to him, “I know your coach,” laughing. stated Reid. “Oh, God, come on,” he exclaimed, laughing.
And there hasn’t been any kind of diversion in that regard. And we simply go on since Trav and she handled it appropriately,” he said. Therefore, there hasn’t been any issue.
Reid’s narrative takes place after the Chiefs’ victory in the AFC Championship Game guaranteed them a position in Super Bowl LVIII, which takes place next month. The Chiefs triumphed 17–10 over the Baltimore Ravens.
Reid has expressed his approbation of the pair in the past in public. Reid said to PEOPLE on December 17 following the Chiefs’ victory over the New England Patriots that he was happy she attended.
Reid told PEOPLE in an exclusive statement, “I hope she enjoyed it.” “I’m thrilled for both of them; she’s currently dating a terrific guy.”
Reid revealed in November that he first saw the singer when she was “very young” since her father “was a big NFL fan” on Outkick’s The Five Spot.
Then, sarcastically claiming to have set up Swift and Kelce’s romance, Reid said, “I joked about setting Kelce up, and, you know, I’m just saying!”

Kelce refuted claims on Friday that his romance with Swift had distracted him this season. The tight end claimed that he had a “conversation about” preserving privacy with the “Karma” singer.
“We can’t listen to anything that’s outside noise as long as we’re pleased,” Kelce declared. “That is all that is important.”
According to Kelce, it would be “silly” of him to ignore the fact that he has been receiving more attention lately. He did, however, pledge to keep his “focus” on the Kansas City Chiefs’ accomplishments.
