😂 Bill Simmons Gives Travis Kelce a New Nickname — And Taylor Swift Can’t Stop Smiling! 💕✨👇👇👇

He jockingly gave Kelce the nickname “Wood,” which apparently reflects his manhood. “There was a very controversial song on the album called ‘Wood,’ which people thought was about Travis Kelce’s healthy manhood,” Simmons said on The Bill Simmons Podcast. “We were just calling him Wood the whole game. It was very enjoyable. It’s like, ‘Mahomes, get it to Wood!’ This clearly should be his nickname.”

If you think the mocking is done here, then you are highly mistaken. He stretched the joke and doubled it down by saying, “She wrote this whole gushing love song about his se–al prowess. He should just be Travis ‘Wood’ Kelce. I mean, you see why Taylor’s smiling. Wood’s just getting it done.”

The lyrics seemed to make a rather obvious nod to Kelce himself. The pre-chorus leaves little to the imagination: “Forgive me, it sounds c—y / He ah-matized me / And opened my eyes / Redwood tree / It ain’t hard to see / His love was the key / That opened my th—s.”

While Swift hasn’t confirmed the song is about Kelce, fans didn’t need much help to connect the dots. When she appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon last week, the host, Jimmy Fallon, and she played a segment where she had to discuss the creation and meaning of “Wood”. The 35-year-old singer couldn’t help but blush when the topic came up.

Taylor Swift opens up about the creation of the song, apparently based on Travis Kelce

Taylor Swift had fans cracking up during her appearance on The Tonight Show on October 7, when she opened up about writing her new track, “Wood”. “I wanted it to sound timeless,” Swift told Jimmy Fallon with a laugh, before hinting at the song’s very not-so-innocent subject. “It started out in a very innocent place… I don’t know what happened, man. I got in there, we started vibing, and I don’t know how we got there. But I love this song so much.”

She had earlier played modestly at the official release party of the Life of a Showgirl film about the meaning behind “Wood”. “It’s about superstition”, she said. “Black cats, stepping on cracks, things like that.” She then flashed a cheeky smile and left fans laughing as she moved on. But the “Wood consequences” are not just restricted to Swift. While Kelce is not teased publicly, his own brother is messing with him at home.

On the New Heights podcast, Jason Kelce couldn’t resist teasing his younger brother about the song’s “personal” nature. “Do you feel cocky?” Jason asked jockingly. Travis laughed from the other end and replied, “Any song that she references me in is… I love that girl.” Jason didn’t stop there and pushed further: “That’s not just any song, this is a very specific you. It’s not just you, though; it’s an appendage.” To this, the Chiefs‘ tight end had nothing left to say, and he just smirked with a short reply, “I think you’re not understanding the song.”
