Kansas City Chiefs Coach Shares Photo of Taylor Swift’s Homemade Pop Tarts

Taylor Swift is celebrating the Kansas City Chiefs’ latest win with a round of her famous homemade Pop-Tarts!

On Tuesday, Nov. 26, Chiefs defensive backs coach David Merritt Sr. photo of him receiving homemade Pop-Tarts from Swift, 34, after her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s win with the team against the Carolina Panthers on Nov. 24.

“Taylor Swift Baked Me Homemade Victory Pop-Tarts!” The NFL coach wrote on X (formerly Twitter) next to the snap.

The photo showed a box of Swift’s baked pies decorated with white icing and sprinkles, including one half-eaten, placed on a desk. A handwritten message was visible on top of the box from Swift that read: “VICTORY POP TARTS!! Congratulations! Love Taylor.”

Meritt then shared that his wife, Yolanda, told him he wasn’t the only one receiving sweet treats from Swift this season — which made him feel less special.

Yolonda Merritt said, “She’s been doing it all season for different people Dave”

The coach also posted a photo of the singer embracing his wife as they posed together during an NFL game. Machine Gun Kelly could also be seen in the background of the snap.

Swift has quite the reputation when it comes to her homemade Pop-Tarts.

In recent months, the “Fortnight” singer, who has been open about her love of baking, has had those lucky enough to have tasted her popular pies rave about the baked treats, including Channing Tatum and various NFL team members.

In December 2023, former NFL player Bernie Kosar revealed that Swift treated boyfriend Kelce, 35, to her homemade cinnamon rolls. “We’re having a meal before the game and Taylor is so sweet she comes in by herself and she’s so cool she brings her homemade cinnamon rolls for Travis for a pregame meal,” he said on Audacy’s AM 560 Sports WQAM.

Later in February, Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said during a interview on Pro Football Talk Live, the pop singer baked some cookies for the team.

“Behind the scenes, she, to fit in — she didn’t even know she was doing this, I don’t think — she likes to cook, so she made the offensive linemen these homemade Pop Tarts,” Reid said.

In one Instagram posts shared on March 1, Pop-Tarts urged Swift to “release the recipe” while recreating the singer’s Eras Tour poster with a Pop-Tart photoshopped in the middle.
