Amid her rumored romance with tight end Travis Kelce, American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift once again attended a Kansas City Chiefs game on Sunday. She was spotted sitting next to Patrick Mahomes’ wife Brittany at Arrowhead Stadium. She was seen wearing a Chiefs sweatshirt and a friendship bracelet featuring Kelce’s jersey number '87' in between two hearts. Swift cheered the Chiefs as they beat the Los Angeles Chargers 31-17.


Taylor Swift's surprise visit


Taylor Swift surprised everyone on September 24 when she went to watch the game between the Chiefs and Chicago Bears. The Chiefs won the game 41-10. But her presence eclipsed the match as it was her first NFL visit. Her presence made a significant contribution as the telecast of Fox’s 'America’s Game of the Week' delivered a total audience of 24.32 million viewers. It also scored the highest among female demographics across the ages of 12-17, 18-49.

Travis Kelce continued a three-game stretch in Sunday's win over the Los Angeles Chargers, with 12-catch, 179-yard, one-touchdown. Chiefs coach Andy Reid said, "Taylor can stay around all she wants." Kelce has registered 31 catches against the Minnesota Vikings, Denver Broncos and the Chargers.
