Travis Kelce is the 'same guy in the locker room' after dating Taylor Swift -

Travis Kelce has risen to popularity in the mainstream media after he and Taylor Swift announced their relationship, but all the attention hasn’t changed the way he acts in the locker room, his teammate says.

The celebrity couple sent fans around the world wild when Taylor Swift was spotted supporting boyfriend Travis Kelce at a Kansas City Chiefs game in September. Since then, eyes around the world have been on the NFL star, but despite the change in his life, he still remains humble.

Fame ‘hasn’t changed’ Travis Kelce, says Patrick Mahomes

Travis’ teammate, Patrick Mahomes addressed Kelce’s ‘newfound fame’ during a press conference this week.

The quarterback sang his teammate’s praises, as he told the media: “Travis has always been Travis. At the end of the day, it’s been cool to watch for me because, obviously he has all that attention but he’s just been himself the whole time.

“He’s still Travis Kelce. He’ll still walk through the stadium and treat every single person like they’re his best friend, and he’s going to be like that in the locker room every single day,” the 28-year-old continued.

Mahomes then continues to praise the “great players” on his team, including his friend Travis. He then went on to talk about the 34-year-old’s SNL performance and explained it had always been a dream of his.

“He crushed it, man. That’s something that hopefully longer down the line he’ll be able to do more of that type of stuff.”

It seems Kelce’s newfound fame hasn’t changed him off the field either, as he scored two epic touchdowns against the Buffalo Bills last weekend.

The win meant the Chiefs are only one win away from a place in this year’s Super Bowl if they beat the Baltimore Ravens tonight.

Patrick Mahomes Sr. calls Taylor Swift ‘down to earth’

It’s not just the Chiefs player who’s a fan of the two, together, it looks like his dad is too, as he told a cute anecdote during an appearance on WFAN Sports Radio’s Evan & Tiki show on Thursday.

Recalling the first time he met the music star, Pat said Swift was “very nice and genuine” and said she was “very down to earth.”

“Someone that’s famous, you never know how that’s going to go,” he added, before recalling how Swift recognized him from Netflix‘s Quarterback documentary.

He also explained how she made his daughter, Zoe Mahomes’ day by taking a picture with her. Honestly, that would make our year!
