The Swift-Kelce Buzz
Guess what? Taylor Swift’s magic touch strikes again! After she was spotted cheering for Travis Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end, at Arrowhead Stadium, Kelce’s merch sales went through the roof.
Someone from Fanatics (that’s the NFL’s official online store) spilled the beans, saying, “Travis Kelce’s gear was flying off the shelves, with sales jumping by about 400% on our sites, including NFLShop.com.” CNN gave a nod to this too.
What Went Down on Game Day
While the Chiefs had a killer win, all eyes were on Taylor. The cameras loved her, and she was the talk of the town. And did you see her rocking that red and white KC team jacket? That just added more fuel to the fire about her and Kelce possibly being an item. But hey, they’re keeping mum about it.

A Little Trip Down Memory Lane
Travis’s bro, Jason Kelce (yeah, he’s in the NFL, too), has been having some fun dropping hints about the rumored lovebirds. A while back, Travis seemed pretty keen on Taylor. After catching her The Eras Tour gig at Arrowhead Stadium, he chatted on the New Heights podcast about trying to slide Taylor his digits via a friendship bracelet. Didn’t quite work out, though. He said, “I was kinda bummed I couldn’t give her the bracelet I made.”
After that game at Arrowhead, the two were spotted cruising together. With Taylor wrapping up her epic Eras Tour soon, she’s hitting the stage in Miami on October 18. As for Kelce, he’s prepping for a showdown with the NY Jets on October 1. And if you can’t make that show, the Eras Tour comes to theaters on October 13.
What’s Next?
Taylor’s Eras Tour is still the talk of the town, and she’s gearing up for her Miami gig. Meanwhile, Kelce’s getting ready to face off with the NY Jets.
