Dwayne Johnson wants Travis Kelce to focus on Super Bowl

Despite his approval of Kelce and Swift's relationship, he emphasized the importance of the tight end to maintain focus, particularly with the Super Bowl on the horizon.

"He’s a bad dude in the game and it’s part of a story, but at the end of the day – and I shared this with a few people I’ve talked to privately – is just all that goes away," he said of Kelce.

"All that stuff goes away. You have to strip it all away and you have one intention and one focus and that’s just to ball out and play the game," he added.

Highlighting the dedication and effort Kelce and his team put for the league championship game, Johnson said, "That’s the beauty of it. Like you got all the bells and the whistles and the cache and the pomp and circumstance and all this awesome hype that happens surrounding this Super Bowl."

"This is a big one this year. It’s a big one, man, with a lot on the line and legacy on the line. The boys still got to go out and ball out – and that’s it. There’s going to be two teams in there – one leaves a champion," he added.

Dwayne Johnson reveals the team he supports for the Super Bowl

As for the 'Black Adam' actor's allegiance in the Super Bowl shutdown between the San Francisco 49ers and the Kansas City Chiefs, he acknowledged his loyalty to San Francisco but admitted that he believes the Chiefs have a better chance this time.
