Travis Kelce may have started a feud with retired NFL player Will Compton over his wedding to Taylor Swift.
The drama began after the former athlete noticed he was the only one out of Travis’s Tight End University group who didn’t score an invite to the biggest union of the year.
Naturally, the exclusion did not sit right with Will Compton, who recently doubled down on calling Travis Kelce out for subbing him. However, some fans believe his past actions are to blame.
Compton might be listening to Swift’s “Bad Blood” on repeat, as he dropped a not-so-subtle, shady remark at Kelce following viral media coverage of his absence from the wedding. He referenced an article detailing his reaction to the snub alongside the words:
“Don’t think I’ve ever seen Dean Blandino at Tight End University.”
Compton dropped the post on X, sarcastically adding “so funny” when a fan joked that it was wild his reaction to the wedding snub made the news.
Another fan hopped on the fun, claiming they would happily watch the retired NFL star fight it out in a cage match with Kelce and Blandino.
Fans Have Mixed Reactions To The Former Athlete’s Shady Post
The comments were filled with mixed reactions, with many supporting Compton while others poked fun at the situation. An X user echoed support for a fight between the group, noting they would love to watch their feud on WWE’s SummerSlam.
The teasing comments continued with someone laughing at the headline about Compton’s reaction, while another fan made a meme about the retired athlete’s reaction to the snub. On the other hand, the majority took Compton’s side, stunned by Kelce’s actions.
Someone wondered why sports analysts like Baldoni, who works for Fox Sports, scored an invite to the wedding when Compton had a closer relationship with Kelce. A fellow supporter dropped proof of the retired athlete’s close relationship with the newlyweds, sharing a throwback picture.
“Never saw Dean Brandino get Taylor Swift to do the Will Compton pose…,” the fan captioned the image. In the snap, the “Opalite” singer had flexed her muscles, posing next to Kelce, Compton, and his “Bussin’ With The Boys” podcast co-host, Taylor Lewan.
Did Will Compton’s Past Play A Role In The Wedding Invite Snub?
The mixed reactions continued, with some fans blaming Compton’s past comments about Swift for the wedding snub. “Maybe don’t sh-t talk his fiancé,” a critic wrote, with another adding, “Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.”
These comments referenced one of Compton’s most controversial moments, where Swifties blew a fuse over his remark about the singer. The drama occurred in September 2025 on an episode of ESPN’s “Get Up,” as shared by The Times Of India.
On the show, the former NFL star seemingly implied Kelce’s engagement to Swift was a distraction from the game. He immediately sparked outrage for his words, with fans dragging him on social media platforms like X for allegedly targeting the Grammy winner.
How Will Compton Initially Reacted To The Wedding Snub
Before his recent comments about Kelce’s wedding snub, The Blast reported that Compton had shared his initial reaction to the situation during a surprise interview. Dave Portnoy had called him on the Monday, July 6 episode of his “Wake Up Barstool” podcast to ask for his thoughts.
Portnoy had been surprised that the majority of Kelce’s Tight End University group had attended the wedding without Compton. Bobby Joseph Hebert III, better known as T-Bob Hebert, noted the former athlete probably didn’t get an invite because he was in Italy.
However, the media personality explained that he never even got the chance to decline the event because he never received an invitation. Compton confessed that he initially didn’t think much about the snub until he started seeing pictures from all the guests and was “kind of flabbergasted” by his exclusion.
Travis Kelce And Taylor Swift’s Wedding Guests Allegedly Forced To Stand
Compton may have dodged a bullet by not getting an invite following claims of a “sh-t show.” The Blast shared that sources claimed Kelce and Swift were not prepared for the sheer number of guests at their wedding, with the reception turning somewhat chaotic.
The ceremony reportedly did not feature a traditional seated dinner, with guests moving between a variety of buffet stations to grab a meal before struggling to find a place to eat. One source claimed the venue became crowded as guests attempted to navigate the food stations and limited seating arrangements.
The queue allegedly left many standing in long lines for food. However, the wait appeared to be worth it, with insiders claiming guests were impressed by the menu. They were treated to a variety of delicacies, including sushi, pasta, salads, chicken, filet mignon, and a range of American, Italian, and Asian-inspired dishes.
