The rumored relationship between the tight end and the “Shake It Off” singer has fueled speculation and caused interest in the duo to spike. Swift wore Chiefs’ colors on the day she was in the stand cheering for the team.

Average ticket prices rose from $428.70 to $627.20 before they stabilized. The Jets sold more than double the number of tickets on a single day than any other day this season after Swift’s attendance was confirmed.

Swift is expected to get VIP treatment at MetLife Stadium, just as she had at Arrowhead. FOX Sports, which went full throttle to cover her at the Chiefs-Bears game, will also be looking forward to similar coverage.

The network had more than 24 million viewers for its telecast of the drubbing of the Bears at the hands of the Chiefs. The number is likely to grow. This also meant that this match was the most-watched NFL game on Week 3.

The results of Swift’s cheering on Kelce were felt far and wide. There was a 400% spurt in Kelce’s jersey sales and his podcast, which he hosts with brother Jason, ranked No. 1 on Apple. Significantly, there was a 63 percent spike in female viewership of the game.

Swift’s presence at the game has raised the profile of both the stars. It is expected to boost Kelce’s prospects after retirement. He has hinted that he might go into entertainment after his footballing stint.
