Ex-Patriots WR playfully teases Travis Kelce for Argentina trip during NFL season to meet Taylor Swift

As far as wide receivers are concerned, Julian Edelman is as close as it gets to the holy grail. The man had the agility of a hare and the pace of a cheetah when it came to maneuvering through tight spaces, which were the foundation of his partnership with Tom Brady during their successful run at the New England Patriots.

Now, the 37-year-old is enjoying retired life, but not without the occasional jab at the current crop of players. Recently, the ex-WR made headlines with a comment that he made about the hottest romance of the year, Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. Let’s find out more.

Julian Edelman pokes fun at Travis Kelce

During his playing days, Julian Edelman’s hunky looks, coupled with his performances out on the field, made him the talk of the town. He was regularly seen with different models on dinners and other outings. However, Edelman is now singing a different tune when it comes to the glamorous lives of NFL superstars.

Talking to Colin Cowherd on his show “The Herd,” Julian Edelman took a jab at fellow WR Travis Kelce for attending his new beau’s concert in Argentina. Speaking about the compartmentalization skills needed to become a successful NFL player, Edelman said, “The people that I dated and when I was playing, they were always very respective of our schedule and understood that during football season I wasn’t gonna go to Argentina, I couldn’t go, I can’t meet you in Paris for lunch. I’m sorry.”

“He’s got that compartmentalization skill where if he’s out there doing what he’s doing and he’s performing, everything’s okay,” he added, “But I’ll tell you right now, the first game you go out after coming back from Argentina, your eyes are a little droopy, the media is there when you drop the ball. I never wanted to put myself in that situation. That’s a tough thing to balance.”

Taylor-Travis enjoys a romantic evening in Argentina

Travis Kelce attended Taylor Swift’s concert in Argentina during the bye-week for the Kansas City Chiefs after a closely contested win against the Miami Dolphins in Frankfurt. In fact, Taylor made the evening even more special for her new man by altering the lyrics to her song “Karma”

Once the concert ended, fans spotted the global pop icon engaging in an affectionate moment with the 33-year-old before they headed into the VIP seating sections. The couple was also seen enjoying a romantic evening after the concert in Argentina.
