Travis Kelce<\/a> touched down in Dallas with his Kansas<\/a> City Chiefs teammates on Wednesday as they gear up for their Thanksgiving<\/a> showdown with the Cowboys.<\/p>\n

The legendary Chiefs tight end will be spending the national holiday on the football field this year, coming as a major blow for his fiancee Taylor Swift<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Taylor, who enjoyed a steak dinner with Travis and his uncle<\/a> in Kansas City earlier this week, is not expected to make the trip to Texas given she has not attended a Chiefs road game since their playoff win at the Baltimore Ravens<\/a> in January 2024.<\/p>\n

The only time she has watched her man away from Arrowhead Stadium since then was last season’s Super Bowl<\/a> in New Orleans<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As a result, Kelce is unlikely to see the pop megastar this year on Thanksgiving, which they celebrated in 2024 at Swift’s Nashville home alongside their respective families.<\/p>\n

The Kansas City icon instead has his focus on their battle with Dallas, which is another must-win game with the postseason fast approaching.<\/p>\n

\"Kelce <\/p>\n

Kelce won’t be spending Thanksgiving with Taylor Swift as he prepares to face the Cowboys<\/p>\n

A stylish Kelce was seen getting off the plane with his teammates in Texas on Wednesday evening wearing a double breasted brown suit with a white T-shirt and black Louis Vuitton sunglasses, while also holding a brown Louis Vuitton hold-all.<\/p>\n

Last weekend’s vital win over the Indianapolis Colts improved the Chiefs’ record to 6-5 and kept their playoff hopes alive, while ending a worrying run of two straight defeats.<\/p>\n

Kelce caught four passes for 43 yards and a touchdown in the 23-20 overtime win over the weekend.<\/p>\n

Swift was spotted by fans enjoying the game in a VIP suite, with a picture of her going viral on social media on Sunday evening.<\/p>\n

Thursday’s game will be another huge test for Andy Reid’s men, with the Cowboys heading into it on the back of a superb victory over the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.<\/p>\n

And incredibly, it will be the first time Kelce has ever played on Thanksgiving in his 13-year NFL career.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘I like playing on holidays, man. It’s fun,’ he said. ‘I know everybody’s sitting down getting, getting all the food they can they can possibly get, and enjoying the family time.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘There’s nothing that goes better than football and Thanksgiving, baby.’<\/p>\n

Before heading to Dallas, Kelce was able to host some family and friends for a special get-together and brought fiancee Swift with him.<\/p>\n

\"Swift <\/p>\n

Swift joined him at his steakhouse – along with her father, Scott, Travis’ uncle, Don, and many of Don’s college friends for a little reunion on Sunday<\/p>\n

His uncle, Don, was able to swing a reservation at his nephew’s new 1587 Prime Steakhouse in downtown Kansas City.<\/p>\n

The restaurant, a collaboration between Kelce and his quarterback Patrick Mahomes, just recently opened its doors.<\/p>\n

Don brought along his college friends from Purdue University – or, as Taylor branded them, the ‘Purdudes’ – for a special post-game meal after the Chiefs beat the Colts\u00a0in overtime.<\/p>\n

In addition to Don, his friends, Taylor and Travis, the singer’s father Scott Swift also joined in the occasion. They shared a group photo together after the meal had finished.<\/p>\n

That image was posted by the daughter of one of Travis’ uncle’s friends to her Instagram account, who shared the joy her father had at the weekend.<\/p>\n
