Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid thinks he knows how Travis Kelce can make himself useful at Taylor Swift’s shows.

Andy Reid knows how Travis Kelce should spend his time at Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour. During a recent appearance on The Athletic‘s Scoop City podcast, the Kansas City Chiefs head coach addressed his star tight end’s relationship with Swift and his appearance at her shows.

“I think it’s great for him. He can handle it. As a matter of fact, I think he probably loves it to a point,” Reid, 66, said of how Kelce, 34, deals with fame. “I think there’s a great escape for him.”

“I said that about Taylor, too. I mean, she comes to the game, she can kind of escape having to be the show. When he goes to her concerts, she’s the star,” he continued, before quipping, “He can be hanging out there and be the support or the waterboy, so he can do that.”

While Reid said that how fame is managed “depends on the people involved,” he thinks both Kelce and Swift, 34, are up to the task.

“She gets all that. He’s kind of grown into it. That podcast of theirs is ridiculous, so he’s gotten a lot of notoriety for that,” Reid said of Kelce’s New Heights podcast with his brother, Jason Kelce. “He’s an outgoing guy. I mean, he comes into a room and he’s going to light the room up. Everybody’s his best friend. Until you prove him wrong, everybody’s a friend.”

As for how he feels about Kelce and Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes’ rising stardom, Reid said, “I grew up in Hollywood, so I’m OK with it as long as they’re ready to go. Training camp is kind of that proving ground. If you’re not ready to go, it’s going to be obvious quickly.”

Since Kelce and Swift entered into their romance last year, they’ve publicly supported each other, the former at the singer’s Eras Tour and the latter during the Chiefs’ Super Bowl-winning season.

Most recently, Kelce attended Swift’s tour stop in Amsterdam, where she appeared to perform a surprise medley in his honor. During the surprise set portion of her show, Swift mashed up “Mary’s Song (Oh My My My)” from Taylor Swift, “So High School” from The Tortured Poets Department, and “Everything Has Changed” from Red.

“I’ll be 87, you’ll be 89,” Swift sang in “Mary’s Song (Oh My My My),” which many took to mean his jersey number of 87 and her 1989 birth year. In the second song, Swift crooned, “You know how to ball, I know Aristotle.” The third song referenced a love that changes a person’s perspective on life.

Kelce — who was joined by Patrick and Brittany Mahomes — was seen seemingly wiping away a tear during the tender moment.
