Amid\u00a0Taylor Swift<\/span>\u2018s two-game absence from the\u00a0Kansas<\/span>\u00a0City Chiefs suite,\u00a0Travis Kelce<\/span>\u2018s best friend Aric Jones opened up on welcoming the pop star to their circle of friends.<\/p>\n

After being at the Chiefs\u2019 first two games this season for her 14th and 15th appearance, Swift was absent during Kelce\u2019s away games in Atlanta and\u00a0Los Angeles<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Page Six, Jones opened up about the 14-time\u00a0Grammy<\/span>\u00a0winner\u2019s impact on the friend group and the tight end.<\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019m never going to downplay [the hype] or to say [the new attention] isn\u2019t the coolest stuff in the world,\u2019 Jones told the publication.<\/p>\n

\u2018But, at the same time, all we got to do is be us. And the only thing that\u2019s changed is that there\u2019s a camera in the suite now.\u2019<\/p>\n

Travis Kelce\u2019s best friend opened up on welcoming Taylor Swift to their friendship circle<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"Aric<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Aric Jones and Kelce have been friends since they were kindergarteners in Cleveland Heights<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Jones and Kelce have been friends since they were kindergarteners playing for the same hockey team in Cleveland Heights. They have remained close since, with Jones being one of the friends in Kelce\u2019s inner circle sitting in the private suite every Sunday.<\/p>\n

When he is not cheering his childhood best friend on at Arrowhead, Jones runs his lifestyle and clothing brand, Homebred Legends. He founded the brand in 2017 and dedicated its designs to the spirit of the Heights.<\/p>\n

Kelce has been seen wearing homebred on the New Heights podcast and wore one of the brand\u2019s trucker hats with his Lanvin separates while arriving at Arrowhead Stadium for the Chiefs\u2019 home opener on September 5.<\/p>\n

\u2018I wanted to do something that represented me and my friends in my city of Cleveland Heights, Ohio,\u2019 Jones explained. \u2018Travis and Jason [Kelce] are great spokespeople for the city as well. So we just have a lot of pride out where we\u2019re from.\u2019<\/p>\n

\"Jones<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Jones (left) praised Swift for being her \u2018own woman\u2019 after spending several games with her<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

While not fishing for Swift to sport one of his pieces like her boyfriend does, Jones went on to praise Swift\u2019s individuality and willingness to be one of the boys when it comes to being at the games.<\/p>\n

\u2018Taylor\u2019s great,\u2019 Jones said. \u2018Taylor\u2019s her own woman. And like, if Taylor wants to participate with us on theme nights, of course, we welcome it.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018But at the end of the day, just having her there and having her presence there is awesome. She\u2019s there to cheer on her boyfriend and hang out with us and, to be quite honest, that\u2019s enough.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
