However, the spotlight recently shifted to Travis Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs‘ standout tight end, who solidified his status as the highest-paid player in his position with a lucrative two-year contract extension valued at $34 million.

The latest twist in the narrative came from Barstool Sports’ “Pardon My Take” podcast, where speculation arose about whether global superstar Taylor Swift, known for her considerable wealth, should play a role in facilitating a more team-friendly deal for Kelce.

“Is Taylor Swift being a bad Chief’s fan for not giving Travis half her money so he can take a cap-friendly deal?” pondered PFT Commenter on the podcast.
