The crossover between Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift in the NFL has essentially come to an end for the 2023 NFL season, following the Chiefs’ victory in Super Bowl LVIII against the San Francisco 49ers over the weekend.
However, a truly unique item related to the NFL’s biggest subplot of the 2023 season has become available. A jersey signed by both Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift will soon be up for auction to benefit charity.
According to the New York Post, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have joined forces to donate the Kansas City Chiefs tight end’s jersey, which has been signed by both him and his pop superstar girlfriend, to the Guelph Wish Fund for Children. This charity serves children under the age of 19 who are facing significant illnesses in Guelph or Wellington County in Ontario, Canada. The auction will take place on Saturday, and online bidding will not be available.
It is expected that this item will fetch a substantial amount of money. However, one can only imagine the price it would reach if it were open to online bidding. While I am not skilled at estimating these things, I believe it would likely reach a six-figure amount, and possibly even seven.
In the event that their relationship endures, which seems likely, there will likely be many more of these signed jerseys in circulation in the next decade. However, if the couple were to experience an unfortunate breakup, this would become an incredibly rare piece of memorabilia from a significant moment in American pop culture history.
The only comparable item I could find was a signed baseball by Marilyn Monroe and Joltin’ Joe DiMaggio. Sotheby’s currently has one listed with an estimated value of $300k-$400k.
One fortunate individual will have the opportunity to own an extraordinary piece of sports and pop culture memorabilia.
