Travis Kelce Rocks His Most Redwood-Coded Outfit Yet for Date Night with Taylor Swift
Travis Kelce's new outfit is straight out of the "Wood."
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 36, has a history wearing looks that fans believe are subtle nods to his fiancée Taylor Swift, especially in the wake of her newly-released album,
This time, though, Kelce — who announced his engagement to Swift, 35, in August — had his fiancée by his side when they stepped out for an evening at Zero Bond in New York City on Thursday, Nov. 7, marking their back-to-back date night this week.

Kelce wore an entirely reddish-brown corduroy set from his limited-edition American Eagle line in collaboration with his Tru Kolors Brand, which launched in August. He sported the full-zip mechanic jacket ($80) and relaxed corduroy cargo pant ($80) for their night out on the town.

The color of the set, meanwhile, can be compared to that of a redwood tree, which has become a notable buzzword in association with the athlete after Swift compared his manhood to the world's tallest tree in her risqué, double entendre-filled song, "Wood."
The three-time Super Bowl winner layered the jacket over a plain, black shirt that he accessorized with two gold chains that dripped down and around his neck. He wore the sold-out Palm Tree Crew diamond edition pendant ($3,650) and his go-to Louis Vuitton dog pendant.

To complete his look, Kelce wore the sold-out Louis Vuitton x Timberland 6-in ankle boot ($2,850). The black shoes were detailed with the designer brand's iconic motif in grey.
Swift wore a sexy, all-black ensemble with her signature glam — red lip and black-winged eyeliner, of course — that was a perfect compliment to Kelce's get-up, marking another lowkey matching moment on the heels of their date night at The Polo Bar the day prior.

The "Elizabeth Taylor" singer wore head-to-toe Louis Vuitton. She coordinated the black, ribbed knit pullover ($2,020) with the black, double face mini wrap skirt ($2,750) and carried the designer's cousin bag PM ($4,950) on her shoulder.
The Life of a Showgirl artist's bottom half, though, was the real show-stopper! She wore black, lace tights with floral designs weaved into the fishnets that were slipped into her Louis Vuitton legacy high boot ($1,940.00) to complete her oh-so romantic date night look.
The night prior, Swift and Kelce were captured arriving to The Polo Bar on Nov. 5 wearing twinning ensembles that aligned with the Ralph Lauren restaurants "smart and elegant attire" dress code that's listed on the joint's website.
"The Polo Bar has a dress code of smart and elegant attire. Entrance will not be permitted if guests are wearing athleticwear, beachwear, T-shirts, hoodies, ripped jeans or hats. Jackets are not required for men, but much appreciated," the code states.

Black tops and trousers were worn by the recently-engaged couple, who walked hand-in-hand as they made their way into the restaurant for a late-night bite.
For Swift's part, she slipped on a long-sleeved, off-the-shoulder top from Alaïa ($1,900) and paired it with Stella McCartney wool trousers in gray ($1,590). She accessorized with the Stella McCartney Ryder Flap crossbody bag ($875).
Kelce coordinated in a black top, specifically the fine-knit Henley shirt by Fear of God ($1,295/$906). He paired it with brown, pleated pants from the same designer and finished his look with the sold-out Nike x Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 retro low OG SP ‘Velvet Brown’ sneakers ($150).

As for the NFL star's history wearing outfits inspired by Swift's latest album, the trend has primarily been on display during his tunnel walks ahead of Kansas City Chiefs games since Swift released her album on Oct. 3 this year.
Two days later, Kelce wore a woodland-inspired shirt upon his arrival to Jacksonville ahead of the Chiefs-Jaguars game. The top had earthy colors, such as various shades of brown and green, and even included a scene of sticks, grass, and leaves — perhaps, even a wood duck or two!
The week after, the star tight end wore lumberjack-coded clothes to the Chiefs-Lions on Oct. 12. It included a brown plaid outfit that has fans comparing the autumnal vibe to that of a woodsman, seemingly another subtle nod to "Wood."
Swift and Kelce's latest outing at Zero Bond comes amid the Kansas City Chiefs' bye week. The team next takes on the Denver Broncos on Sunday, Nov. 15.
BREAKING: Las Vegas Raiders Release Two Rookies for Unprofessional Conduct and Failure to Embrace Team Culture

In a bold move that has sent shockwaves through the NFL, the Las Vegas Raiders have released two rookies from their roster due to unprofessional behavior and their failure to embrace the team’s culture. Under the leadership of head coach

The decision to part ways with these two rookies, despite their promising futures, speaks volumes about Carroll’s commitment to building a disciplined and cohesive team. While talent is critical, Carroll has emphasized that fitting into the Raiders’ culture and maintaining the right attitude off the field are just as important as performance on the field.
“We’re building something here that requires everyone to be all in,” Carroll said during his press conference. “It’s not just about what you do on the field. It’s about how you show up every day, how you contribute to the team, and how you respect the process. If you’re not committed to that, then you won’t be part of this organization.”
A Culture of Accountability and Professionalism
Since taking over as head coach, Carroll has focused on creating a culture of accountability, professionalism, and teamwork within the Raiders. Known for his energetic leadership and strong defensive principles, Carroll has worked tirelessly to ensure that every player is fully aligned with the team’s core values of hard work, respect, and unity.
The two rookies, who were expected to make significant contributions to the Raiders’ future, reportedly failed to meet Carroll’s high standards. Sources close to the team suggest that their behavior off the field—including missed meetings, lack of participation in team activities, and failure to adopt a team-first mentality—ultimately led to their release.
“Football is a team sport, and this organization is built on mutual respect,” Carroll explained. “We need players who are committed to the collective effort—on and off the field. If you can’t be part of that, it’s not going to work.”
Long-Term Vision for the Raiders
This decision is about more than just releasing two rookies—it reinforces Carroll’s long-term vision for the Las Vegas Raiders. The team is focused on building a championship-caliber roster, and that requires more than just talent—it requires a culture of discipline, unity, and a shared commitment to success.
While some fans may feel disappointed by the loss of young talent, Carroll’s decision highlights his commitment to maintaining a strong, unified culture within the team. The Raiders are focused on building something sustainable for the future, and this move is part of that ongoing effort.
“We’re here to build something that lasts,” Carroll stated. “We’re not just trying to win this year; we’re building a team that can compete at the highest level year after year. For that to happen, everyone needs to be fully invested in what we’re doing.”
Moving Forward
As the Raiders move forward, Carroll’s leadership will be crucial in guiding the team toward its goals. While releasing two rookies may seem harsh to some, it’s clear that Carroll is committed to creating a disciplined, professional team that fully embodies the organization’s values.
With the rest of the roster now focused on proving they are fully invested in the team’s culture, the Raiders are well-positioned to continue building toward a successful future. This decision serves as a reminder that no player is above the team, and Carroll is determined to create a culture that will guide the Raiders to sustained success.
Under Pete Carroll’s leadership, the Las Vegas Raiders are building a team rooted in discipline, respect, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. This bold move is just one step in that direction.
