Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has faced swirling rumors as to where he stands on the political aisle.
However, he has seemingly quashed any remaining questions over where his political leanings lie after reports surfaced that his circle reached out to Kamala Harris’s campaign about appearing at the DNC.
CBS’s Gayle King reported the Kelce news live on air in the buildup to night four of the DNC, amid rumors that his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, may attend the final day in Chicago as a mystery speaker. Ultimately, the pop star was not in attendance.
King said: “The Taylor Swift rumor is interesting to me because I was told a couple of days ago that Travis Kelce also had reached out to the Harris campaign when it was first announced and said he wanted to be here on the night that she was speaking…we’ll see if that’s true.”

“I think he has a game tonight,” said someone sitting next to King, referencing the Chiefs preseason home game against the Chicago Bears.
“I know he has a game but that doesn’t mean that he’s playing,” King said before a co-anchor chimed in with, “You look like you know something.”
King was half-right: Kelce was not playing in the Chiefs game. However, he was present on the sidelines with a clean-shaven beard and a long mustache. He came out of the tunnel donning a retro USA Basketball t-shirt.
