Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce romance becomes bigger than Super Bowl?

Talking to ESPN, the Chiefs quarterback said, "I don't think it feels any different," he continued. "People see the whole Taylor Swift and Travis [thing], and they make it a huge deal because it is a huge deal. I think it becomes a bigger deal to the fan bases than it does to the guys who are actually in the building."

The 28-year-old also cheekily confirmed that the duo's unending romance did not become a "distraction" for him.
