Pat McAfee admitted that even he is a big fan of the relationship between Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. 

After the release of Swift's album, 'The Tortured Poets Department,' Pat McAfee took a moment to address the duos whirlwind romance on his show. 

"The NFL though has a multiple time Super Bowl champion who has changed the course of pop culture forever," McAfee started by saying. "Travis, we're happy for you buddy.

"That 'So High School' song, his boys get a shoutout, there activities - they probably play Grand Theft Auto online. She's been there. The boys get a full shoutout there... His dad gets a shoutout. The impression of his dad, which obviously we've met through the New Heights podcast and getting to see him kind of operate is amazing. That's a beautiful thing."

The album came out at midnight and he when woke up, McAfee made sure to listen to it all in the morning. And to make things better, he even took a moment to post about it. 

So it's safe to say that McAfee is a big fan. 

"I'm thankful that Taylor Swift has met a football guy. Because I think what's coming in the next album is about to be the most, 'I found it,' McAfee said. "And I am so happy that because since the very beginning, we said these two might be perfect for each other. Like actually might be perfect for each other." 

And McAfee also took a moment to appreciate everything Swift does. Even Patrick Mahomes had similar sentiments, saying that she is always working. It's clear everyone can tell. 

"If you woke up this morning, you listened to a new Taylor Swift album... two albums. Surprise! I'm touring the world selling out every stadium on earth, I'm in the middle of the most public relationship that sports has had in a long, long time," McAfee explained. "Remember she was changing outcomes of NFL games and also writing two albums."

She truly takes no days off. 

"Taylor Swift is a workhorse, beast, genius, you name it. Travis Kelce, same thing, but at a position where he's not the most famous guy in the room. So being the guy who's with Taylor Swift is not a problem. Some of these other guys it feels like they potentially couldn't handle the shadow. Travis is like we're having a good time, who cares. That's all Travis cares about. So I'm really pumped for both of them."

So let's just hope this romance that feels like a high school sweethearts story continues. 

"Two greats in love. That's good for society."
