The kingdom’s defenses getting stronger. So far, no one has been able to penetrate the Chiefs. 4-0 start in a season they are chasing the unprecedented 3-peat? Hell yeah! Cue in the drum rolls. But this start has not stopped the fans from highlighting Travis Kelce‘s form. Sure, age could be a factor, but a lot of folks are pointing to something else—Taylor Swift’s absence from recent games. Sound crazy? Maybe. But that has caused another looming question, whether we’d see the pop star against the Saints or not.

You know how it goes—when you’re as big as Kelce and Swift, privacy is just a distant memory. The longer they’re not seen together, the more fans spiral into wild rumors, like speculating if Kelce’s performance is taking a hit because of it. Two games without Taylor, and suddenly, everyone’s wondering if the Chiefs’ star is distracted. But honestly, how much truth is there to all this noise?

Taylor was the talking point at Kelce’s games last season. So her skipping two games in a row definitely got people worried if there’s tension spewing between the two. But, hold up! According to multiple sources, the couple is still very much together. One insider told Entertainment Tonight, “Taylor and Travis are still together and doing well. He’s busy with the NFL season, and she’s enjoying some time off before her upcoming shows.” So, no drama—just busy schedules.

Word on the street is, Tay-Tay prefers Arrowhead due to security reasons, which is why she hasn’t traveled to recent away Chiefs games. The Saints game in week 5 is in Kansas City, so that must surely mean we would be seeing her. Um, it’s not that straightforward.

See, the thing is, by the end of October, Swift’s Eras Tour would kick off in Miami. So, there are obviously pre-tour rehearsals that could hinder her from attending the Chiefs game. But as of now, no one can for sure comment on what’s cooking in Taylor’s head. Who knows, she might be planning a big tunnel entrance. It’s anyone’s guess for now. What isn’t, though, is the fact that Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are very much in love!

Taylor Swift wants Travis Kelce in perfect shape!

If you are part of the group who think Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift have split, then we’d ask you to think again. Why? You may ask. Well, Tay-Tay seems to be stepping in as more than just Kelce’s romantic beau. Reports suggest the pop icon is taking an active role in helping Kelce bounce back from his sluggish NFL start this season.

What’s your perspective on:

Will Taylor Swift's presence at the Chiefs game boost or distract from their performance?

Have an interesting take?

Even though the Chiefs have secured four straight wins, Kelce’s personal stats—15 catches for 158 yards—are well below what fans are used to. As Swift fans might say, “It’s time to shake it off!”

After a fun-filled summer globe-trotting with Swift on her Eras Tour, a source close to the couple mentioned, ‘Taylor feels a bit guilty,” believing their lavish downtime may have impacted Kelce’s form. And how is she making it up to him? By promising to ditch alcohol and junk food whenever they’re together. Talk about being in it together!

According to Life and Style Magazine, Swift is taking things up a notch. She’s reportedly on a mission to help Kelce get back in shape, ensuring he sticks to a strict diet. The source added, “She’s committed to helping him shed the weight and prove the haters wrong.” It seems Kelce’s six-pack comeback is now a team effort—both on and off the field. Or as Travis Kelce noted: “She’s a bit biased and creates plays for me.”
