Last night at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Georgia, the NFL spotlight was focused on the exciting matchup between the Falcons and the Kansas City Chiefs. However, another figure often steals attention in the crowd—Taylor Swift.
Since she began her relationship with Travis Kelce, fans of both football and her music, known as swifties, have shared the spotlight. Yet, for last night’s game, NFL fans were relieved to see that Taylor Swift was not in attendance.
A rare absence
This was the first game she missed this season, having previously attended the Chiefs’ first two games in Kansas City.
Despite having no tour commitments that evening, Swift was missing from the Atlanta game, having been seen in New York City the previous night with friend Gigi Hadid.
Travis faced challenges without her support
Despite the Chiefs securing a win, their lackluster performance was noticeable, showing on many players’ faces. Travis Kelce experienced visible frustration on the sidelines, not having his best game as he strives to regain form. While Kansas City clinched the victory, it seemed more like Atlanta’s mistakes that led to their defeat. The Falcons battled hard, but the Super Bowl champions managed to edge out the win.
Fans are left wondering if Taylor Swift’s absence impacts Travis Kelce’s game performance and speculating whether she will miss more matches this season—only time will provide answers.
