NFL star Adam ‘Pacman’ Jones thinks Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift will get married ‘this year’

NFL icon Adam “Pacman” Jones recently spoke about Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end and the pop queen have begun sparking engagement rumors, as fans can’t wait to see where their romance takes them. Jones spoke on his YouTube show, BetOnline, about what he thinks of the famous couple.

“I’m thinking this year they are going to get married or after football,” Jones said. “Of course, they are going to be together. They have got enough money to take each other money. But I do see love there. So I do see a baby and everything.”

Jones knew Kelce from their days of playing college football for the University of Cincinnati.

“I think they are in a real relationship,” he continued. “I know Trav, because he went to UC. His love [is genuine]. When he says he is with somebody, he is with somebody.”

Jones noted that he knows Kelce and Swift are the real deal, as he knew Kelce when he dated in the past.

“And I am a true believer of that because with the other young lady he was with, he was with her and he found something better and moved on. But I believe Travis 100%,” Jones continued.

Travis Kelce might want to ‘start a family’ with Taylor Swift as soon as possible

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce began dating in 2023. While some sources claim the couple doesn’t want to rush tying the knot, a source told Life & Style in April 2024 that Kelce “wants to marry” Swift and start a family as soon as possible.

“Travis is eager to speed up their relationship timeline,” the source alleged. “He wants to marry Taylor right away and start a family as soon as she’s ready. Travis has been so broody that he’s told Taylor he’s open to having kids before a wedding.”

The source added that Kelce’s “fatherly instincts kick in” as an uncle to three nieces. He and Swift have allegedly discussed having children.

“[Swift] knows starting a family is huge for Travis — that’s one of the things she loves about him,” the insider continued. “Taylor and Travis have definitely talked about how cute their babies would be. They’re still not officially engaged, but they both have babies on the brain.”

The Kansas City Chiefs player might be feeling the pressure

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift continue to make public appearances in 2025. Unfortunately, body language expert Judi James told Daily Mail Online that Kelce’s body language made him look anxious during a recent date night. James suggested that Kelce might be feeling under pressure to propose.

“If he is on the brink of proposing these symptoms would fit but they could also occur from a man who’s avoiding commitment while under pressure to propose,” the expert suggested.

An insider told the publication that Kelce and Swift are aware of how the world treats their relationship, making their future engagement tricky.

“Travis is going to have to go above and beyond but it won’t be a public spectacle,” the insider alleged. “They are both aware of the fact that the whole world is so thirsty for them to be engaged and, while Taylor does want a white wedding one day, her friends just feel like people need to chill and let them be a couple.”
