Just In: Rumors Cary As Taylor Swift one-year NFL anniversary: Revisiting the 2023 Chiefs game that confirmed Travis Kelce dating … See More

Taylor Swift’s presence as the Shield’s most ardent supporter seemed an unlikely proposition last summer. The international pop star hadn’t been known to engage with football in any sort of substantive way prior to the 2023 season — outside of some notable gridiron references in some of her music videos.

Lightning struck for the NFL in Sept. 2023, however, fueled by a romantic relationship between Swift and one of the league’s most vaunted representatives, Chiefs star Travis Kelce. One year later and we’re all still feeling the aftershocks.

Revisiting Taylor Swift’s 2023 NFL debut
Kelce made his interest in Swift very clear ahead of Kansas City’s Week 3 clash with Chicago last year, calling on his soon-to-be girlfriend to see him “rock the stage at Arrowhead” just as she had done a few months earlier. He even crafted a friendship bracelet for Swift when she performed at Arrowhead in July 2023, hoping to swap the jewelry with the then 33-year old.

Swift followed through, making her big league debut when Kelce’s Chiefs took on the then-Justin Fields-led Bears on Sept. 24, 2023.

To the naked eye, things appeared to happen quite serendipitously. Swift looked to have paid a visit to an unsuspecting sporting match featuring a man who seemed to want to form some sort of connection with the 14-time Grammy winner.

Things aren’t always as they appear, however. Kelce and Swift were in regular communication with one another prior to the Week 3 clash. Entertainment Tonight even reported that Kelce had “definitely” developed a crush on Swift.

“He is a simple guy that is very funny, charismatic, chill, and loves playing football,” Entertainment Tonight’s Jackie Willis wrote.

Swift bumped shoulders with a host of Chiefs elite, chief among them was Kelce’s mother, Donna. It appeared that she cultivated tons of goodwill during her cameo, so much so that Travis Kelce escorted her out of the stadium following the conclusion of the game.

Kansas City walked out worthy victors, vanquishing Fields and Chicago, 41-10. Swift seemed to enjoy the festivities, which included a seven-catch, 69-yard, one-touchdown Kelce performance.
