When I was with Travis, it reminded me of my buddies in high school and just being able to laugh and say the things you want to say.”
He added that Kelce is "a stud" and "a great actor and a great human.”
But, of course when talking about Kelce, a Taylor Swift mention can often be found close by.
“Taylor is incredible,” Sander added. “Taylor is so damn nice to my family and has always been. My kids have met Taylor a bunch of times over the years, and she’s ridiculously nice to them and warm.”
