Taylor Swift is reportedly 'fully on board' with Travis Kelce's decision to focus on his NFL career in the wake of February's devastating Super Bowl defeat.
It has emerged that Kelce is determined to prioritise the upcoming season with the Kansas City Chiefs, with the 35-year-old and Swift set to tone down their public appearances as a result.
The tight end was tipped to retire from the sport after the Kansas City Chiefs lost to the Philadelphia Eagles in New Orleans.
However, he's since confirmed that he will play on for at least one more year - in a huge boost to coach Andy Reid.

Now, according to the Daily Mail, Swift is fully supportive of Kelce's decision to focus on American Football.
A source is quoted as saying: "Him and Taylor are doing great, his outside football ventures are aamzing.
"His on field play needs to improve, and he knows that, especially since he is on his last contracted season and is heavily leaning towards retirement after this season.
"He wants to be the reason that the Chiefs return to the Super Bowl and hopefully win it again.

"If this ends up being his last season, as he is gearing towards, he wants to go all in, and Taylor is all about it."
The Super Bowl was meant to be a huge occasion for Kelce, who wanted to win the prestigious tournament for the fourth time.
There was even talk that he'd potentially propose to Swift from the pitch but, with the result failing to live up to expectations, that didn't happen.
The report says that, while Kelce knows Swift occupies plenty of his time, he doesn't blame her for the Chiefs' failure to come out on top.

Speaking last month, meanwhile, Kelce opened up on his decision to stick with the Chiefs - insisting he feels he can still play at the highest level, despite approaching the twilight years of his career.
"I still feel like I can play at a high level and possibly at a higher level than I did last year," he said on his New Heights podcast.
"I don't think it was my best outing.
"I let my guys down in a lot more moments than I helped them.

"I have a bad taste in my mouth in how I ended the year and how well I was playing and how accountable I was for the people around me. I don't want to leave that life yet.
"I feel like there is a responsibility in me to play out the contract I initially signed to give Kansas City and the Chiefs organisation everything I've got, and that's what I'm going to do."
