He tagged Taylor Swift in the post after expressing his gratitude to the pop star, saying, "Thanks a million".

It is not new for Taylor Swift to reference Travis Kelce in her Eras Tour. In fact, last year, during her Eras Tour in Buenos Aires, the songstress even altered the lyrics of 'Karma' to reference the NFL champ. As she started performing 'Fifteen (Taylor’s Version)' in Lyon, France, Swift looked completely giddy while singing the line, “dating the boy on the football team".

Following the moment, fans inundated social media, speculating it was a nod to Travis Kelce. However, some also criticized the frenzy, considering the entirety of the lyrics that said, “you will go on to do better things than dating the boy on the football team”. With the Edinburgh shows coming up, only time will tell what new headline-grabbing moments the Eras Tour will bless fans with.
