Colin Kaepernick has revealed that his mother once encouraged him to ask Taylor Swift out while he was in the NFL, years before the singer began dating Travis Kelce. The former San Francisco 49ers quarterback shared the unexpected detail in his new memoir, The Perilous Fight, while reflecting on his relationship with his adoptive parents and his identity.
Kaepernick wrote that his mother, Teresa Kaepernick, believed he and Swift would be 'perfect together.' He also specifically noted that her suggestion came 'long before Travis Kelce made his move,' linking the anecdote to the NFL star who would later become Swift's partner.
