**Bijan Robinson Congratulates Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift on Engagement**
Atlanta Falcons star running back Bijan Robinson was preparing for interviews ahead of the 2025 NFL season when he learned that Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift had just announced their engagement. “I actually just saw that before I walked in here. Congrats to them, man,” Robinson shared with a smile while discussing his partnership with CLC in anticipation of College Colors Day. “That’s pretty awesome to get engaged.”
Robinson humorously noted that they were “trying to bring positivity on such a hard day when it comes to football,” as NFL teams were finalizing their roster cuts before the 4 p.m. ET deadline on Tuesday.
Despite not being teammates with Kelce, Robinson expressed admiration for both the football player and his fiancée. “Huge for them. I respect Travis so much for what he’s done for this game,” he said. “And even Taylor Swift and what she’s meant to the world through her music. For that information to come out, that’s super awesome.”
The announcement of Swift and Kelce’s engagement sent shockwaves through both the sports and entertainment communities. The couple shared engagement photos on Instagram, captioned, “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,” accompanied by a firecracker emoji. This led to an outpouring of congratulations, including from Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, who reposted the engagement photos on their Instagram Stories. Brittany expressed her joy, writing, “Two of the most genuine people meet & fall in love. Just so happy for these two.”
Gracie Hunt, daughter of Chiefs CEO Clark Hunt, also chimed in, stating, “Travis and Taylor’s engagement is the kind of news that makes the world feel a little brighter. It’s joyous that they’re stepping into a lifetime together.”
As the couple embarks on this new chapter, both Kelce and Robinson are focused on the upcoming NFL season. Kelce and the Chiefs are set to face the Los Angeles Chargers in Brazil on September 5, while Robinson will host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to kick off the Falcons’ 2025 campaign on September 7.
Robinson is eager to see a sea of red and black for another Falcons season, but this weekend, he will be showcasing his old college colors. He encourages all fans to participate in College Colors Day on August 29, a nationwide initiative developed by collegiate brand licensing leader CLC, urging supporters to “Flip the Switch” and display their college pride.
