Jared Wiley - Travis Kelce's new backup on the Chiefs - has claimed that he's never heard a song by the team's superfan, popstar Taylor Swift, but vows to start listening to her and 'copy everything' the Kansas City star does after being picked in the draft.
Wiley, 23, was selected as one of two fourth-round picks (131st overall) by the Chiefs last month and is the first tight end to feature on the team straight out of college since Kansas City drafted backup Noah Gray in the fifth round of the 2021 NFL Draft. Gray will enter the final season of his rookie deal this upcoming fall.
But, on top of a whole new playbook to learn this upcoming season, the former TCU player will also have to start remembering lyrics to some of Swift's hits if he wants to be on Kelce's good side straight from the get-go.
'I guess I better be one now,' Wiley said of his Taylor Swift fandom, according to CBS Sports.
'I'm not going to sit here and lie. I've probably never heard one of her songs or anything like that, but I think it's the coolest thing ever that she's at the game. She attracts more fans and more publicity to the team.'
