Travis Kelce’s Reps Slam ‘Entirely False’ PR Plan for Taylor Swift Breakup, Considering Legal Action
The rumors are terrible and cruel, but honey … this one isn’t true. An alleged media plan outlining Travis Kelce‘s supposed publicity strategy in the event of a breakup with Taylor Swift has sent fans spiraling this week, but according to the football player’s reps, the whole thing is fake news — and they’re considering taking legal action against whoever made it up.
In a statement shared with E! News Thursday (Sept. 5), Kelce’s reps at Full Scope Public Relations wholly denied that the papers circulating online — which bear the agency’s logo at the top and the title “Comprehensive Media Plan for Travis Kelce’s Public Relations Following Breakup with Taylor Swift” — have any validity.

“These documents are entirely false and fabricated and were not created, issued, or authorized by this agency,” the spokesperson wrote. “We have engaged our legal team to initiate proceedings against the individuals or entities responsible for the unlawful and injurious forgery of documents.”
Billboard has reached out to Full Scope and Swift’s team for comment.
The statement from the athlete’s reps comes just ahead of his first Kansas City Chiefs game this season, which kicks off Thursday (Sept. 5). Kelce and his teammates will face off against the Baltimore Ravens at Arrowhead Stadium, where all eyes will be on the box suites to see if the “Anti-Hero” singer — who’s currently on break from her global Eras Tour — is in the building to support her boyfriend.
By all accounts, the couple is going as strong as ever — and so is Swift’s interest in the NFL. According to Kelce, as well as Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, the pop superstar has a new hobby of drawing up plays for the team to use on the field, though the tight end notes that she’s “a little biased” and tends to only make up on-field strategies for him.
“She had just been so open to learning the game,” Kelce added on The Rich Eisen Show Sept. 3. “I think what makes her so good in her profession is that she’s so detailed in every aspect of it, from the words to her music and even the releases and the music videos and everything. She’s just so detailed and a part of it, that I think she was just curious about the profession.”
