Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Relationship Update June 2025

Taylor Swift is enjoying her time off after finishing her record-breaking Eras Tour last year. The tour launched in 2023 and made history as the highest-grossing tour ever with over $2 billion in ticket sales. It was comprised of 149 shows and took Taylor all across the globe, from the US and Canada to Asia and Latin America, before concluding in December. Since then, she's been spending quality time with Travis Kelce, whom she began dating in 2023, and as the upcoming NFL season approaches, sources say she's also looking forward to supporting him on the sidelines. A source tells People, "Taylor is really looking forward to the upcoming NFL season. Not just because she loves supporting Travis, but because for the first full season since they started dating, she's not juggling a packed tour schedule." Of course, Taylor managed to attend Travis's games even in the midst of the tour, like when she memorably supported him at the 2024 Super Bowl, where he and the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers. But, as the source said, it was challenging. "The past two seasons were a whirlwind between performing across multiple countries, long flights, and trying to squeeze in alone time together wherever possible," the source shared, adding, "It wasn't easy, but they made it work." And now that the tour is over, the source said Taylor is "genuinely excited to have the time and flexibility to show up for Travis more consistently." "This fall will be completely different," the source continued. "Taylor plans to be at as many of his games as possible. They've both had such demanding schedules for so long, so having this stretch of time where things aren't quite as chaotic feels like a welcome change." The source added that it's also "a chance for them to settle into more of a routine" and that Taylor and Travis are "both really happy about that." Aww! Can't wait to see her at the games! (Let's just hope the crowds are a little nicer this time.)

Packers Receiver Cornelius Johnson Gives Answer Fans Wanted Before Season

Packers Receiver Cornelius Johnson Gives Answer Fans Wanted Before Season originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Green Bay Packers are preparing for another push in the competitive NFC North, with mandatory minicamp happening months before the real games begin. The dust has settled after the Jaire Alexander release, allowing players to focus on some early practice this past week. Advertisement They'll still have key players on the roster, with quarterback Jordan Love hoping to guide them to further playoff success. He'll have preferred targets like Jayden Reed, Dontayvion Wicks, Romeo Doubs, and rookie Matthew Golden for the upcoming campaign. The team closed out the 2024 season, finishing third in the division, and bowed out of the Wild Card Playoffs to the eventual champion, the Philadelphia Eagles. And while practice remains critical to a better Packers season, players recently had vacation destinations on their minds. Michigan wide receiver Cornelius Johnson (WO13) talks to the media at the NFL Ruszkowski-Imagn Images That wasn't necessarily due to a lack of focus, but instead for the team's social media clip. In the X video, several players were on their way to the field or back from it, and we're asked about their bucket list destinations. Advertisement Most players had intriguing choices. For Javon Bullard and Pro Bowler Xavier McKinney, it was Africa. Golden named Ireland. Evan Williams wouldn't mind going to a foreign island, such as the Bahamas or Fiji. Mecole Hardman indicated he'd like to go check out "the pyramids" for his bucket list. And all of these sound enticing for players booking future travel plans. However, it was wide receiver Cornelius Johnson scoring some major points, naming a destination that Packers fans would love to see him at next year. "Super Bowl," he simply replied, suggesting that he's locked in on achieving that goal. "Cornelius has his priorities straight," one X commenter said in the video replies. Advertisement "W Cornelius," another individual wrote. "Best answer...@CorneliusNation," an X commenter added. The Packers have been to the Super Bowl five times, achieving four wins. Fans haven't seen them reach that ultimate team destination since Super Bowl XLV in 2011, where Aaron Rodgers led them to the championship, defeating the Steelers 31-25. According to Vegas Insider, the team opened in the top 10 for Super Bowl odds, tied with the Cincinnati Bengals and Washington Commanders at +2000. While Johnson's still a newcomer to the league, he certainly has the right idea and approach as he looks to contribute in Green Bay. Advertisement The former Michigan Wolverine entered the NFL last season and the Los Angeles Chargers took him 253rd overall. However, he never got to participate in their games after being released from the team's practice squad last August. The Packers signed him to their practice squad soon after. Earlier this year, Johnson signed a future/reserve contract, and now sits at fourth on the team's depth chart for receivers.

Chiefs Star Travis Kelce Has Made Huge Physical Change

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Kansas City Chiefs and star tight end Travis Kelce are back together for at least one more season. Despite offseason retirement rumors, Kelce has decided to run it back for the 2025 season, and his future is not decided after the upcoming campaign. After coming up short in the Super Bowl against the Philadelphia Eagles, Kelce wants to make another run. Entering the upcoming season, he's doing everything he can to get back to playing at an elite level after a down year in 2024. Kelce has made a major change ahead of the 2025 season. Travis Kelce #87 of the Kansas City Chiefs reacts prior to the NFL match between Miami Dolphins and Kansas City Chiefs at Deutsche Bank Park on November 05, 2023 in Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

Photo byAs shared by ESPN NFL insider Jeremy Fowler, the Chiefs' tight end has made a major change to his physical appearance. He has slimmed down considerably. Read more: Vikings QB JJ McCarthy Called Out in Brutally Honest Breakdown Fowler revealed the update on Kelce during an appearance on "SportsCenter." "The Chiefs knew that Kelce was going to be gone this week," Fowler said. "He's expected back for minicamp. He'll address the media, be on the practice field—all that fun stuff. And he will debut a bit of a slimmer look. He's told people close to him that he's lost about 25 pounds this offseason." Working his way into better shape could be exactly what Kelce needs to get back on track. His numbers last season were solid, but not great. Speaking of his 2024 season, Kelce played in 16 games. He caught 97 passes for 823 yards and three touchdowns. Again, there's nothing to be upset about from those numbers, but Kelce has produced a lot more than that throughout his career. He's looking to take every step he can to lead Kansas City back to the Super Bowl and to take the next step to add another ring.

Kelce believes he can still play at a very high level and make a major impact. "I still feel like I can play at a high level and possibly at a higher level than I did last year," Kelce said. "I don't think it was my best outing, you know? I think I let my guys down in a lot more moments than I helped them, especially if you look at my track record and how I've been in years past. You know, I want to give it a good run. I got a bad taste in my mouth about how I ended the year and how well I was playing, and how accountable I was for the people around me." It will be interesting to see what the 2025 season has in store for Kelce and the Chiefs. He's working hard to increase his individual performance, and dropping 25 pounds could help him become a much more dynamic weapon for Patrick Mahomes.
