Taylor Swift spent her Thursday night at Arrowhead Stadium watching her boyfriend and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce play, play, play. And win.

Dressed in a denim corset, matching denim shorts and red knee-high boots, Swift entered the stadium just over an hour before the game started, according to footage posted to social media. Welcome to the second season of “Football (Taylor’s Version).”

The Chiefs defeated the Baltimore Ravens in a thrilling 2024-25 season opener that aired on NBC.

Swift was at one point spotted next to the three-time Super Bowl champion’s father, Ed Kelce, who proudly represented both of his sons in a “New Heights” podcast cap. Swift was later shown on NBC’s broadcast celebrating one of Kelce’s successful catches with his mother, Donna Kelce.

Swift and Kelce have been dating since September 2023, when the singer first showed up at one of Kelce’s soccer games after speaking at length about his attempts to reach out to her during an Eras Tour concert in Kansas City.

She became a regular at his games – and was seen on our TV screens during the game broadcasts – during this past season, supporting Kelce during breaks in her tour.

Her presence at the games became a much-discussed topic.

Many were pleased with her connection to the league and the new female audience she brought with her, while some NFL fans criticized the amount of attention she received during the broadcast of each game.

The “Fortnight” singer acknowledged the talk of her NFL fame in an interview with Time magazine last year, saying, “I’m just there to support Travis.”

“I don’t know if I’m going to be in the picture too much and piss off some of the dads, Brads and Chads,” she said.

Kelce’s teammate Patrick Mahomes, the NFL’s best quarterback, previously spoke about how “extremely cool” he thinks it is that Swift kept coming to their games despite all the criticism.

“Obviously she’s just here to support Travis the best she can,” he said in February during a pre-Super Bowl press conference. “She’s done a great job of bringing more people to football and showing them how great the game is.”

Mahomes added that as a father of a daughter, I love that she watches the games and loves football.
