The Kansas City Chiefs have turned into a national spectacle over the last two seasons. Andy Reid’s squad has become a dominant power in the AFC for the better part of a decade now, but the influence of his team has taken on a new personality.

Again, it has not been the Super Bowls or the double-digit win seasons or even the magical operation of Patrick Mahomes in the pocket.

This all traces back to tight end Travis Kelce striking a romance with Taylor Swift. Since the relationship between the tight end and the pop music megastar went public midway through the 2023 season, the Chiefs not only expanded their audience in a significant way, but also that of the NFL at large.

By all accounts, Swift has tried not to insert herself into the operation of the team and Kelce’s teammates have likewise handled the added attention in a professional way.

That maturity has been a necessity. Countless camera pans to Swift during games and the avalanche of coverage of the two on social media has made many fans turn spiteful feelings to both Swift and Kelce.

Unfortunately for that contingent of the NFL audience, it appears the subject of their ire will not be going away any time soon.

Sources have told Page Six that Swift’s support of Kelce remains unwavering and she is expected in attendance for as many games as she can make next season.

Kelce decided to come back to the Chiefs for one more season and finish out his contract. Swift apparently had some level of influence there.

Nonetheless, the all-time great tight end will be back on the fold, hoping to spirit yet another extended playoff run for Kansas City.

So Swift will be back in her usual spot in the suites, chopping it up with Brittany Mahomes, Donna Kelce and the other figures of a celebrity Chiefs’ supporting cast.
