During his appearance at the 2024 American Century Championship in Nevada on Friday, July 12, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 34, caught up with Golf Channel about all that’s gone on in the past few months.
At one point, the NFL star discussed whether fans can expect him to hit the stage again with girlfriend Taylor Swift, 34, during her ongoing Eras Tour.
“It’s been the funnest year of my life, I can definitely say that,” Kelce told the outlet during the celebrity tournament at the Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course. “I said that after the Super Bowl [in 2023] when I played my brother, meeting my brother at the mountain top was the peak of my life. You know, it’s just kind of been, keep going up and up from there.”
“Who knows man,” he added, pondering another Super Bowl victory. “Who knows where this thing goes, if I get a chance to win another one.”
When asked if there’s any chance he’ll tap back into his backup-dancer skills — a reference to his June 23 cameo during the Eras Tour at London’s Wembley Stadium — Kelce didn’t reveal too much.
“I can’t let anything out of the bag,” he said, laughing, “but right now I’m in full football mode after golf.”
Elsewhere during the discussion, Kelce was nudged about a potential third consecutive Super Bowl victory. The athlete, who has helped his Chiefs clench the title in 2020, 2023 and 2024, revealed that while it would be a “long haul” to do so again, he’s “ready to get back to work.” “Oh, you know it’s possible,” he said.
“Anything is possible, you knew that.” While Kelce didn’t give anything away about a return to the Eras Tour stage, he did give fans a show to remember when he stepped onstage with Swift during one of her London shows last month.
The surprise appearance came during Swift’s “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” outfit change, when Kelce picked Swift off the stage floor and carried the superstar to a couch area for her outfit change.

Rocking a tuxedo and top hat, Kelce also showed off a few dance moves. A day after the performance, Swift mentioned the cameo on Instagram. “I’m still cracking up/swooning over @killatrav’s Eras Tour debut ,” Swift wrote in the caption of an Instagram post about the London shows. Kelce’s brief appearance at the Eras Tour wasn’t his only performance in recent weeks.
During the charity golf tournament on Thursday, July 11, Kelce took the stage for a karaoke contest, in which he sang Whitesnake’s 1982 hit “Here I Go Again.”

After reigning victorious in the contest, Kelce excitedly jumped up and down and shouted out his significant other. “Taylor, this is for you,” Kelce said in a video shared on X (formerly Twitter). The NFL season kicks off again for Kelce and his Chiefs on Sept. 5 when the reigning Super Bowl champions face the Baltimore Ravens.
