Taylor Swift shuts down Travis Kelce breakup rumors by dropping new merch
Taylor Swift appears to be silencing the haters speculating about her relationship status in the best way possible — by launching new merchandise that hints that her romance with Travis Kelce is doing just fine.
The pop star, 34, dropped her Greatest In the League collection on Thursday, which was reportedly inspired by a line from her song The Alchemy, a song rumored to be about her Kansas City Chiefs boyfriend.
The song includes the lyrics: ‘They said there was no chance of being the best in the league; where is the trophy? He just comes to me,” which many believe is about Kelce.
Fans were quick to point out that she dropped the merchandise on National Boyfriend Day, October 3, despite an alleged “contract” that recently spread across the internet claiming that Swift and Kelce would announce a breakup on September 28.
The merchandise in question includes several styles of sweatshirts and sweatpants with her Tortured Poets Department logo in the same color palette as the album: black, white, beige and gray.
The pop star dropped her Greatest In the League merchandise collection on Thursday, which was reportedly inspired by a song rumored to be about her romance with Kelce.
Excited fans took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to discuss the latest release – and what it could mean.
“Literally only Taylor would release a ‘biggest in the league’ collection on National BF Day when her BF’s team is currently 4-0,” one person commented.
“Taylor Swift chose to release ‘The Greatest in the League’ merchandise collection today, on National Boyfriend Day,” said another.
“What a great way to confirm that they are still strong, who are we to fight against Alchemy!” someone else gushed.
‘People who think this kind of thing is ‘just a coincidence’? Don’t they know Taylor? She is aware of everything, there are no coincidences of this magnitude with her,” one fan exclaimed.
September marked one year since the pair confirmed their highly publicized romance to the world – when the Cruel Summer singer attended her first Kansas City Chiefs game.
The alleged contract outlined a detailed plan to release an official statement about their breakup by the end of the month, and was written by what appeared to be Kansas City athlete Kelce’s PR company.
Travis’ team has since labeled the contract – which was first posted on Reddit – as ‘completely false and fabricated’ and claimed they had hired lawyers to try to find whoever carried out the ‘unlawful and harmful falsification of documents’ invented.

Swift made her first appearance at Arrowhead Stadium on September 24, 2023 as the Chiefs defeated the Chicago Bears 41-10
And indeed, the separation date set in the alleged contract has now passed without any fuss or news of a split.
Swift made her first appearance at Arrowhead Stadium on September 24, 2023 when the Chiefs defeated the Chicago Bears 41-10.
The singer took her now usual position in Kelce’s luxury suite before the match and watched with his mother, Donna.
She also got into the spirit right away and appeared to shout “let’s go” in response to Kelce’s touchdown in the third quarter.
After the match, the couple was seen leaving the locker room together before leaving Arrowhead in a convertible as they headed to a celebratory after-party.
After a whirlwind 12 months in the spotlight, Swift has now been to 15 Chiefs games, including their Super Bowl victory over the San Francisco 49ers in February.
