Taylor Swift Reacts to Chiefs' Historic Travis Kelce Announcement

Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs secured their 15th win of the 2024 NFL season after defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers 29-10 at Acrisure Stadium on Christmas Day.

Kelce's girlfriend, artist Taylor Swift, was notably absent from Wednesday's Netflix-aired contest. However, this should not come as a surprise as the "Bad Blood" singer has only attended games at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium throughout the season.

During the game, Kelce picked up his first touchdown catch since Nov. 10 against the Denver Broncos. In the fourth quarter, quarterback Patrick Mahomes tossed a 12-yarder to the former Cincinnati Bearcats star to increase the Kansas City lead to 28-10.

In doing so, Kelce tallied his 77th touchdown grab in his 12-year career with the Chiefs, passing former tight end and Hall of Famer Tony Gonzalez (76) for the most touchdown receptions in team history.

Following the historic catch, the Chiefs took to social media to make an Instagram post in celebration of Kelce's record-breaking achievement.

"If you ever can’t find Travis, chances are he’s in the end zone. Congrats, @killatrav!" the Chiefs wrote on X.

Swift, who is normally pretty quiet on social media, reacted to Kelce's moment by liking the post.

Swift has attended seven home games for the Chiefs in 2024, including the final one of the season on Saturday against the Houston Texans. The Grammy-winning musician only missed one contest at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium this year, which came in Week 14 against the Los Angeles Chargers when she was performing in her final "Eras Tour" show up in Vancouver, Canada.

Overall, Swift has appeared at 20 of Kelce's games, dating back to September 2023. The Chiefs have gone 17-3 in those matches.

With the win over Pittsburgh, Kansas City moves to 15-1 on the season and has secured the No. 1 seed in the AFC and a first-round bye in the NFL playoffs. It will have one final regular season game in Week 18 when they take on the Broncos once again.
