Travis Kelce reached a new peak of popularity months after dating Taylor Swift, but it is reportedly not a good thing at all.

The NFL garnered more attention after Swift began watching Kelce's plays with his team, the Kansas City Chiefs. In fact, the singer often gets the spotlight whenever she appears in a stadium to support her beau.

While Swift is already a world superstar, dating her reportedly made Kelce more famous, as well.

Travis Kelce Is Getting Too Much Attention?

Kelce's managers, André and Aaron Eanes, recently spoke with The New York Times (via The Daily Mail) where they opened up about the athlete and his profile's new dizzying heights. The twins said they are worried everyone could grow tired of seeing him because of too much media exposure.

Because of this, they planned for 2024 to make his success unceasing.

Aaron said Kelce would focus on "quality over quantity" and "authenticity first" this year, making him work on fewer deals.

For what it's worth, the tight end landed deals he never had before, including businesses with Experian and Pfizer. He also got the chance to host "Saturday Night Live."

With his unstoppable popularity, he filed for five trademarks of five phrases, including his name and Killtrav, Alright Nah, Flight 87 and Kelce's Krunch.

"We positioned Travis to be world famous," André said. "We didn't know how it would happen, or when it would happen, or what would help push that further along. But it's always been the thought in the back of our minds."

Taylor Swift's Ex Could Not Handle Her Fame

Before Kelce, Swift dated actor Joe Alwyn, who reportedly could not keep up with her fame.

Senior therapist and relationship expert Sally Baker from "Working On The Body" told The Mirror that Alwyn was "unaccustomed and ill-prepared to handle such a high-profile lifestyle."

"It takes men who are secure in their self-worth to overcome societal expectations; the pressures of fame and self-esteem issues can make it challenging to maintain relationships with more successful or powerful women," she continued.

Swift and Alwyn broke up in 2023, and the singer moved on with Matty Healy before dating Kelce.
