Travis Kelce, TE for the Kansas City Chiefs, faced a challenging night on Monday as his team suffered a 21-17 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Notably, his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, was absent from the game due to her ongoing “Eras Tour” concert in Brazil. This absence has ignited speculation among some observers.
Many suggested a potential correlation between Swift’s non-attendance and the Chiefs’ loss. The defeat marked only the third loss for the Chiefs this season. It’s also the first since Swift began regularly attending games. So, should NFL fans be concerned every time Swift isn’t seen in the pavilion supporting her boyfriend?

Taylor Swift’s presence was notably missing during the recent Super Bowl LVII rematch, as the Kelce brothers faced off. The intricate dance of conflicting schedules, particularly with Swift’s ongoing Eras Tour, played a significant role in her inability to attend the game.
The somber note of a fan’s tragic passing at her concert in Rio de Janeiro added a layer of complexity, preventing the 1989 singer’s presence. Travis Kelce experienced a night of highs and lows in the recent game. While he managed to score and provide his team with the lead at halftime, an interception occurred on a pass intended for him, adding a challenge to his performance.
Per statistics, in Swift’s attendance, Travis Kelce has demonstrated a remarkable average of 108 yards per game. However, a significant drop is evident due to Swift’s absence, with Kelce’s average yards per game plummeting to just 41.8. The contrast in the TE’s performance was quite blatant. Even Kelce himself was unhappy about his gameplay against the Philadelphia Eagles.

In the latest episode of the New Heights podcast, the Kelce brothers engaged in a recap of their recent game. However, during this discussion, Jason Kelce encountered difficulty in recalling whether the Chiefs scored in the second half.
At this moment Travis Kelce said, “We haven’t scored in the second half in like four or five games. We should fix that, and it starts with my dumba** holding onto the f**ing ball.” Then he later added, “My turnover, turnovers, are killing us. Penalties are absolutely killing us. I had one of both, and a drop, and a fumble. I’m not playing my best football right now, and it’s pissing me off every f**ing time I’m out there.”
