Travis Kelce’s Teammate Mecole Hardman Jr. Reveals What Taylor Swift Told Him After Super Bowl-Winning Catch
Mecole Hardman Jr. seems to have left a lasting impression on Taylor Swift with his “magic.” The Kansas City Chiefs player is opening up about his exchange with the pop star after catching the game-winning touchdown during Super Bowl LVIII earlier this month.
“She was like, ‘Good job, proud of you, good game.’ Like, ‘Man, it was crazy,'” he said on Tuesday’s episode of The Pivot Podcast, revealing what she told him on the field at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada. “Then she said something about doing these magic tricks.”
The 25-year-old wide receiver recalled meeting Swift at a party hosted by her boyfriend, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, earlier in the season, where Hardman wowed her with a trick involving a deck of cards.
“Every time she sees me she talks about it,” he continued. “So then she was like, ‘Man, you and these cards,’ like … ‘Your hands are magical,’ or something like that. Like, ‘You catch the game-winning touchdown.'”

“Taylor’s so cool, bro,” Hardman said in the new interview. “She just vibes.”
He explained that being with her in a social setting is no different than meeting any of his other teammates’ significant others, but admitted to feeling star struck behind the scenes.
