Travis Kelce celebrates his 34th birthday with an impromptu meetup outside of the Chiefs’ practice facility… without his rumored girlfriend Taylor Swift

Travis Kelce was spotted in a parking lot in Kansas City on Thursday, which also happened to be his 34th birthday.

The professional football player cut a casual figure as he jumped into his SUV before leaving the Kansas City Chiefs practice facility in the company of his friends, although he eventually returned to his teammates after just an hour.

The tight end – who looked particularly somber as he stepped out later in the evening – kept it casual in a gray T-shirt and a pair of red athletic shorts emblazoned with his team’s logo.

Kelce also donned a pair of bright white Nike socks and tri-color running shoes.

Absent from the impromptu birthday celebration was the athlete’s rumored girlfriend, Taylor Swift.

The soccer star and the hitmaker, 33, were initially linked when he attended her performance at Arrowhead Stadium, which took place last July.

The professional athlete later revealed that he tried and failed to slip the Karma singer his phone number after the show.

Kelce was previously in a long-term relationship with influencer Kayla Nicole that lasted from 2017 to 2022.

Swift has been linked to numerous individuals in the past, and her most recent romance with actor Joe Alwyn lasted from 2016 until last April.

The tight end eventually managed to get in touch with the singer, a source said Entertainment Tonight that the two saw each other casually.

Another insider said: ‘Travis has been into Taylor for a while and definitely has a crush on her. He is a simple guy who is very funny, charismatic, chill and loves to play football.’

Kelce’s older brother Jason, who also plays in the NFL, also declined to make any public comments about his sibling’s relationship during several public appearances that took place last month.

Swift later attended a Chiefs game that took place on September 24, during which she sat next to her rumored boyfriend’s mother, Donna.
