Travis Kelce makes emotional admission about Super Bowl after 'breaking golden rule' for Taylor Swift

Travis Kelce has made an honest admission over the Kansas City Chiefs' Super Bowl defeat after reportedly 'breaking a golden rule' for Taylor Swift.

On Sunday night, the Chiefs took on the Philadelphia Eagles at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana, as the pair battled for Super Bowl glory.

The Chiefs, led by the likes of Kelce and Patrick Mahomes, were looking to win the trophy for the third time in a row. However, they were second best from start to finish.

The Eagles dominated and secured a one-sided 40-22 victory to claim the Super Bowl crown.

Speaking during a new episode of him and his brother's New Heights podcast, Kelce reflected on the Super Bowl defeat.

He said: "Just wasn’t our day. Couldn’t find a lick of momentum. I’m kicking myself for some of the tiny, tiny decisions I made on the field.

"I wasn’t the best that I could be in motivating my guys and keeping my guys calm, cool and collected and I put a lot of that on myself, you know, as the guy that’s been in the building for 12 years and seen a lot of football and seen a situation just like this, in the Super Bowl."

Kelce added: "It’s a tough pill to swallow," as his voice began to shake. "It’s a hard reality, man."

This comes after reports that Kelce broke a so-called 'golden rule' in the build-up to the Super Bowl.

Last year, the 35-year-old revealed that players would normally isolate in local hotels for pre-match training in what was a crucial focus period.

However, as reported by The Mirror, Kelce met up with girlfriend Swift two days before the match as they were seen dining together in a restaurant.

After the result, there were talks that Kelce could retire.

When asked about the possibility, Mahomes said: "He knows he still has a lot of football left in him. You can see it. He always makes plays in the biggest moments.

"But it's if he wants to put in that grind, to go out there and play 20 games to get to the Super Bowl. He's done enough to be a gold jacket guy and a first-ballot Hall of Famer. I know he still has a love for the game. He'll get to spend some time with his family and make that decision on his own."
