This year, pop sensation Taylor Swift suddenly became a big part of the Kansas City Chiefs community after she began dating star tight end Travis Kelce. And it sounds like she was quickly embraced by the team, especially after the special gift she made for some of the players during the season.
Most fans might not know it, but Taylor Swift is an avid baker. So when it came time to endear herself to the teammates of her new boyfriend this season, she decided to appeal to their stomachs.
In a recent interview with PFT Live from the NFL Combine in Indianapolis, Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid revealed that the pop star actually baked homemade pop tarts for the Kansas City offensive linemen,

“And kind of behind the scenes, she likes to cook,” Reid said on the show. “She made the offensive linemen homemade pop tarts.”
Reid said that move quickly earned their love.
“So it was over,” Reid said. So, it was over. She knew right where to go. It’s over.”
But while the offensive lineman got to enjoy the tasty treats, it seems that Reid got left out.
“No, she didn’t give me one,” Reid said. “And the offensive linemen definitely didn’t give me one.”
It’s a pretty funny anecdote, and the NFL world had a lot to say about it on social media.
I mean… homemade pop tarts for the offensive linemen? Pure brilliance. Checkmate, girl. https://t.co/xFCkotUCZo

I don't really listen to Taylor's music, but this is just a phenomenal story.
People love to hate the successful people in this world. https://t.co/hQv27DRo0q

Maybe next time Swift bakes something, Reid will get first dibs.
