Travis Kelce is kicking it into high gear for the imminent NFL season — but before then, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end has been enjoying some quality time with his girlfriend Taylor Swift.

Over the summer, Kelce, 34, joined the pop icon, also 34, on stage at a London stop of the singer's Eras Tour. Kelce reflected on his time on stage during an episode of The Rich Eisen Show, which dropped Tuesday, September 3.

"I'm always down to have some fun on stage with Tay Tay," he said about his Eras Tour debut.

Since Swift and Kelce began dating almost a year ago, Kelce has called Swift many nicknames, including "baby" or "sweetie." His latest, "Tay Tay," has sent Swifties into a frenzy.

"oh he's downnnn and he's never coming back up," said one Swiftie on X (formerly Twitter)

"still gagging over tay tay," said another fan.

While the concert was a new experience for Kelce, he shared that Swift made it a smooth one for him, as he took to the grand stage.

"Taylor knew when the lights are on I'm gonna have some fun and she put me in a position so that I didn't have to do much for it to be a success," Kelce said. "She put me in a really comfortable part of the show."

And Kelce isn't the only one to step into a new world. In an interview with NFL on NBC last Thursday, August 29, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes revealed that Swift has been very present in the meetings leading up to the NFL season.

"[Swift is] already drawing up plays," said Mahomes, "so we might have to put one in."

The Chiefs will take on the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday, September 5 for their NFL season opening game.

Later this month, Kelce will make his acting debut on FX's Grotesquerie, set to premiere Wednesday, September 25.
