After hanging out with Travis Kelce at the American Century Championship in Lake Tahoe, earlier this month, Kyle Juszczyk thinks the Chiefs star and Taylor Swift are a perfect match. 

In fact, the 33-year-old fullback even went as far as to using the word ‘spouse’ in his comparison of Kelce and his 49ers teammate, Christian McCaffrey, who tied the knot with model Olivia Culpo this summer.

‘I just spent some time with Travis this past weekend,’ Juszczyk told Us Weekly

‘In both Travis and Christian, I saw how little I needed to say because they were already doing it. They’re both already so supportive of their spouses and they both have stayed so genuine.’

‘I think maybe that is part of the reason why they’re so beloved by fans and why people love both of those couples,’ he continued. ‘They all stayed so genuine and real. They haven’t become too good for everyone.’

Kyle Juszczyk heaped praise on Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce and the McCaffrey’s for staying true to themselves despite the pressure of high-profile relationships

Juszczyk’s wife – Kristin – whom he married in 2019 – befriended Swift during the 2024 NFL playoffs when she designed custom Chiefs fan gear for the 34-year-old popstar. 

Since then, Juszczyk has noticed that Kelce and Swift always try to make things work despite their busy schedules and being at the pinnacle of their career in music and football. 

‘I think having – whether it’s a wife or a girlfriend or whatever – on that same level as you kind of keeps you grounded,’ Juszczyk said. 

After the Niners’ narrow Super Bowl loss to the Chiefs, earlier this year, the Juszczyks were spotted on a getaway trip to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, with the McCaffrey’s and another couple – teammate George Kittle and his wife, Claire.

Earlier this month, Kittle hilariously recalled asking Kelce if he could use the bathroom at Swift’s vacation home in Rhode Island while at the McCaffrey’s wedding in Westerly via text. 

Before Super Bowl LVIII in February, Kittle, a tight end, said of Kelce, his Chiefs counterpart: He’s a fantastic football player. He’s probably a first-ballot Hall of Famer. 

‘So, anything you can get from Travis Kelce, it’s awesome. And the fact you’re friends too, it makes it a little bit sweeter as well.’
