The couple has been spotted together in various locations like Australia, Singapore and Italy during the NFL offseason, showing signs that their romance is growing.
As the pair continues to draw attention worldwide, Sudeikis seized the moment to probe about Kelce's intentions toward Swift during their encounter at the Big Slick Celebrity Weekend in Missouri on June 1.

I don't know what I'm ready for right now, but I'm ready to have some fun."
Despite the speculation, Kelce remained cool and collected, simply smiling in response without comment. An insider previously revealed to Us Weekly that a proposal isn't imminent, stating: "Travis has no plans on proposing to Taylor. It's not even on his radar.
"Marriage is something he takes very seriously and not something he would ever just jump into without giving it some careful consideration. Things between them are going amazing, but they haven't even been together for a year yet and still have so much to learn about each other."
Additionally, Life and Style reported that Kelce is biding his time before popping the question to Swift, with a source noting:"They've been together almost a year now and they're madly in love, so it makes sense that they'd be discussing marriage.
"The big moment and the ring need to be super special... no matter what or when he finally asks her, it will be an experience that they'll remember forever."
