New Photo of Travis Kelce Spark Taylor Swift Rumor on Tuesday
New Photo of Travis Kelce Spark Taylor Swift Rumor on Tuesday originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Travis Kelce and his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, are spending the bulk of the offseason in Southern Florida while the Kansas City Chiefs tight end prepares for the 2025 NFL season. Swift and Kelce were spotted dining together at Harry's Bar & Restaurant in West Palm Beach over Memorial Day Weekend. Last week, the 14-time Grammy winner and Kelce dined at Buccan restaurant in Palm Beach. While fans gushed over seeing them together again, the famous couple drew viral attention while attending Kelce's cousin's wedding in Knoxville, Tennessee, just two days later. Swift and the 35-year-old appeared to have a blast at the barnyard nuptials, happily posing with family members and fellow guests. In support of former NFL tight end Greg Olson's charity, Kelce attended his annual golf tournament in Charleston, South Carolina, which supports The HEARTest Yard Foundation on Monday. On Tuesday, Kelce was back in Miami and photographed while making his way to a workout. However, numerous fans noticed a pink color emerging from his bag that looked similar to the edge of Swift's "The Eras Tour Book." One woman posted, "HELLO IS THAT THE ERAS TOUR BOOK???" One fan replied, "WAIT I THINK SO." One person gushed, "Travis misses eras tour just as much as us 😭😭😭😭." Another person guessed, "He is probably bringing an autograph copy to someone at the gym." Another fan asked, "Is this for his trainer or something?" One X user joked, "Something to read while on the treadmill to make time go by faster." Another fan wrote, "very tayhusband of him." Kelce has another week to train on his own before returning to Kansas City for mandatory minicamp which kicks off on June story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 11, 2025, where it first appeared.

Longtime former Cowboys coach at Commanders' minicamp
Jason Garrett spent almost 10 full seasons as the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys. Dating back to his time as an NFL quarterback, backing up Troy Aikman, Garrett faced the Washington Commanders (then the Redskins) many times throughout his career. On Tuesday, Garrett was a guest on the opening day of Washington's mandatory minicamp. Apparently, Garrett was just a guest of head coach Dan Quinn. Garrett and Quinn's relationship goes back to 2005, when Garrett was the Miami Dolphins' quarterbacks coach and Quinn was Miami's defensive line coach. The 2005 season was Garrett's first as a coach, while Quinn was an up-and-coming young defensive mind. The Miami job was Quinn's second NFL job. While Quinn and Garrett are remembered for their time in Dallas, they weren't with the Cowboys simultaneously. Garrett was fired after the 2019 season, while Quinn became Dallas' defensive coordinator in 2021 for three seasons. Who hired the two young coaches in Miami 20 years ago? That would be the legendary Nick Saban. These days, Quinn is entering his second season as head coach of the resurgent Commanders, while Garrett is a studio analyst for NBC Sports' "Football Night in America."
