Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce turned 36, but the birthday wishes he received from Taylor Swift’s fans were far from ordinary.
The team’s official TikTok account posted a short 32-second video celebrating Kelce, showing his signature “Archer” move as he ran out of the tunnel. But instead of focusing on the football moment, Swifties flooded the comments with NSFW jokes inspired by Taylor’s song “Wood.”
In the clip, the Chiefs referred to Kelce as “The Archer,” but fans quickly shifted the tone. Comments like “celebrating the biggest tree in the forest” and “I can’t look at him without blushing” took over the post, referencing Swift’s steamy lyrics from The Life of a Showgirl.

In her track “Wood,” Taylor sings, “Forgive me, it sounds cocky / He ah-matized me and opened my eyes / Redwood tree, it ain't hard to see / His love was the key that opened my thighs.” The lyrics have been widely interpreted as a direct nod to her relationship with Kelce, sparking viral discussions across social media.
While some fans were shocked by the explicit metaphors, others praised Swift’s poetic boldness. The viral reaction has even led many to jokingly suggest that Kelce’s “Archer” nickname be replaced with something more fitting — “Mr. Wood.”
The Chiefs’ simple birthday post has now become a trending moment online, showing once again how Swift and Kelce’s romance continues to captivate both NFL fans and Swifties alike.
