Exclusive : Fans of Taylor Swift are astonished by the romance that began—”That’s how it started”—between pop star’s dancer and former teammate of Travis Kelce…

Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs have won all three games that Taylor Swift has watched in person. Those victories are a part of their five-game winning streak that ties them with the Miami Dolphins for the American Football Conference’s best record.

But the All-Pro tight end isn’t the only link the 12-time Grammy Award winner has with the Kansas City Chiefs. Aside from staging two show dates of her Eras Tour at Arrowhead Stadium last July, one of her dancers has NFL lineage too.

While news cycles are covering Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift round the clock, one Swiftie revealed a fascinating angle by tweeting:

Kameron Saunders graduated from the University of Missouri Kansas City. He posted on Instagram that he was one of the 15 dancers chosen for Swift’s Eras world tour.

In a 2022 interview with Voyage KC, Kameron revealed that he got interested when his mother brought him to a dance class she took. She enrolled him in a performing arts middle school in sixth grade. He attended Webster University for two years before earning his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at UMKC in 2014.

Meanwhile, Kameron’s brother, Khalen Saunders, played with Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs from 2019 to 2022. The former Western Illinois standout is a fourth-round pick who won a Super Bowl during his rookie season.

He added another Vince Lombardi Trophy to his collection after the Chiefs defeated the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LVII. The defensive tackle played on a four-year, $3.67 million rookie scale deal during his years with Kansas City.

Khalen signed a three-year, $14.5 million contract with the New Orleans Saints this offseason. As of Week 6 of the 2023 season, Saunders has 102 tackles, 11 quarterback hits, 4.5 sacks, and two passes defended in 44 games.

While a Saints-Chiefs game isn’t on the 2023 regular season schedule, New Orleans defeated Kansas City during the preseason. Travis Kelce didn’t play in that loss, while Khalen Saunders had two tackles.
