Taylor Swift has enchanted another member of Chiefs Kingdom.

Defensive backs coach Dave Merritt sang the praises of Travis Kelce‘s girlfriend while explaining the impact he believes the Grammy winner had on the star tight end and the Kansas City team leading up to their 2024 Super Bowl victory.

“She actually affected the team in a positive way” he said on the Feb. 23 episode of The Sports Shop With Reese & Kmac, released less than two weeks after the big game. “Everybody was excited that Travis was happy. So when my player, my brother, is happy beside me, that helps me and that encourages me.”

As Dave noted, he’s seen a change in Travis since he began dating Taylor over the summer. “And so Travis came in there a different man,” he added. “So she helped us.”

“She won a Super Bowl in her first year in the NFL,” the coach joked. “How about that?”

The “Blank Space” attended most of the Chiefs’ games this season, with their TV broadcasts and live streams regularly featuring live footage of her cheering on her boyfriend inside a stadium suite, which drew mixed reactions from viewers.
