Chiefs' Xavier Worthy reacts after Taylor Swift reveals how excited she was team drafted him
Johnny Manziel commended Travis Kelce for being a 'special person' who stays locked in on the field despite off-the-field ventures, including his 'New Heights' podcast which just featured his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy briefly became the topic of conversation during Taylor Swift’s appearance on Travis and Jason Kelce’s podcast last week.
Swift recalled how she became an obsessive football fan since dating the Chiefs’ star tight end on the "New Heights" podcast. She went as far as to say that she was excited about the team selecting Worthy out of Texas in the 2024 draft.

"That’s crazy. I ain’t gonna lie," Worthy said in response to watching the Swift clip. "She’s the biggest pop star in this generation, so, it’s crazy to have somebody running around the house screaming, ‘We drafted you.’ That’s tight. That’s what’s up."
Worthy made an immediate impact on the Chiefs in his first season. He had 59 catches for 638 yards and six touchdowns.
He also scored a touchdown late in the team’s Super Bowl LIX loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Swift admitted in the podcast interview that she didn’t really know much about football and regretted asking Kelce a pretty basic question that any casual fan would know the answer to.
"Jason, on our first date, I legitimately asked him what it was like when the Chiefs played the Eagles in the Super Bowl, and he looked across the field across the line of scrimmage and saw his brother standing on the other, like five feet in front of him on the field,"
