It seems like this year was Travis Kelce‘s year. Not only did he meet with the most iconic pop star, Taylor Swift, and immediately fall in love, but he also achieved quite a bit of success professionally in terms of his merchandise and endorsements.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end is already a star, as he is counted among the best tight ends to ever play in the NFL. But this season, he saw a surge in his NFL merchandise and ticket sales, thanks to the Swifties. On top of that, Kelce was named the “Golden Boy” of celebrity endorsements.

Very recently, the star tight end was also featured on the December-January cover of Wall Street Journal magazine. Kelce’s popularity has gone beyond the limits of sports, and since his fairytale romance with the 12-time Grammy winner, he’s become the name known to everyone.
