Taylor Swift is "really interested in football".

The 34-year-old pop singer is dating NFL star Travis Kelce, and Patrick Mahomes - Travis' teammate at the Kansas City Chiefs - has revealed that Taylor actually has really good knowledge of the sport.

Patrick, 28, said on NBC: "She’s really interested in football. She asks a lot of great questions."

The NFL star subsequently explained that Taylor has developed a keen interest in the strategic side of the sport.

Patrick - who won the Super Bowl alongside Travis in Las Vegas in February - said: "She’s been drawing up plays, so we might have to put one in."

Travis has become one of the most talked-about athletes in the world since he began dating Taylor in 2023, and Patrick previously claimed that the pop star has helped to make the Kansas City Chiefs a "worldwide team".

Speaking to Time magazine, he explained: "[The Chiefs] went from a nationwide team that was kind of global to a full global worldwide team. That came from Taylor’s fanbase."

Patrick also admitted to being wowed by Taylor's down-to-earth attitude and her work ethic, explaining that she's always "working on something".

The sports star - who is one of the best players in the NFL - said: "I’ve met a lot of famous people now in my life. Taylor’s probably the most down-to-earth person that’s been on that stage for that long.

"She’s never not working. Even when she’s taking her downtime, she’s working on something. Shooting a music video or singing a song or writing a song. You can see it by how she talks."
