On NFL cut-down day, the biggest story had nothing to do with two sides parting ways. It was the exact opposite, actually, as pop star Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce announced their engagement.
Given the popularity of both figures — one is arguably the greatest tight end in NFL history and the other is literally the biggest celebrity in the world — the sports world was quick to congratulate and react to the news.

Both the NFL and "New Heights," the podcast hosted by Kelce and his brother — former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce — were quick to celebrate the couple.
President Donald Trump, who hasn't always been a huge fan of Swift, wished the couple luck when informed of the news.
The Chiefs, however, didn't issue an immediate response. That created a somewhat awkward situation for Kansas City defensive end Mike Danna, who had the unfortunate task of holding a new conference just after Kelce and Swift announced their engagement.
Danna played it off in a humorous manner, smiling while telling reporters he had no idea what was going on.
Virtually anyone and everyone else involved in the sporting world issued a congratulatory post about Kelce and Swift.
This story will be updated.
