Travis Kelce’s Taylor Swift-coded cardigan sends fans into a frenzy: ‘Completely taking me out’
Travis Kelce slipped into a cozy cardigan for lunch with friends in Los Angeles Monday, and fans of girlfriend Taylor Swift lost their minds on social media after seeing his casual look.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 34, headed to Cecconi’s restaurant with some pals after flying back from a whirlwind trip to Singapore to see the “Cruel Summer” singer on tour — and he wore a very Swift-like look for the outing.

Kelce sported a fuzzy oatmeal-hued open cardigan for his day out in LA, teaming the sweater with a white v-neck T-shirt and loose olive green trousers.
He accessorized with an Hermès belt and black sunglasses, but, of course, his sweater was what caught the attention of Swifties.
The pop star — who penned the song “Cardigan” for her Folklore album — has quite a penchant for the sweater style, famously wearing a chunky white knit cardigan for the song’s music video and later selling different versions online as well as gifting them to her famous friends.

Some wondered if Kelce had swiped the look from his girlfriend, like one fan who shared some photos on Twitter and wrote, “travis may have borrowed this cardigan from a certain blonde’s wardrobe.”
“When i said i am manifesting a pap walk I meant tayvis being completely in love not Travis completely taking me out while wearing a f—king cardigan……” another fan tweeted about Kelce’s look.
“idk about u but travis’ cardigan would’ve looked cuter if it said i ❤️ ts,” a third Swiftie wrote, although another Twitter user chimed in and pointed out that Tom Hiddleston wearing a similar T-shirt “didn’t work out.”

“Taylor even made fun of him in the LWYMMD MV,” the fan tweeted, referencing a scene in “Look What You Made Me Do” where a group of dancers wears “I ❤️ TS” baby tees.
One place where Kelce certainly didn’t need a cardigan was steamy Sydney, Australia, where the Chiefs player headed for a mere 48 hours last month to watch his girlfriend perform.
Perhaps Taylor can sport the sweater on their next date.
