“Time to Call Taylor Swift a Distraction”: Patrick Mahomes & Travis Kelce Face Hard Hitting Questions From Skip Bayless After Raiders Loss

In the aftermath of the Kansas City Chiefs’ unexpected loss to the Las Vegas Raiders on Christmas Day, sports analyst Skip Bayless has raised an intriguing question. Swift, a devoted supporter of Kelce, has been a visible presence at Chiefs’ games, but the team has suffered defeats in two out of the last three games she attended.

Bayless, the host of Fox’s ‘Undisputed,’ took to Twitter and raised the notion that Taylor Swift might be a distraction to the Kansas City Chiefs and her boyfriend, Travis Kelce. The pop star attended the Chiefs’ Christmas Day game against the Las Vegas Raiders, which ended in a surprising loss for the Chiefs. 

Skip Bayless puts the Chiefs into question over Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift, 34, continued her support for her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, 34, at the Chiefs’ Christmas Day game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Unfortunately, the Raiders emerged victorious, marking the second loss in the last three games Swift attended. Skip Bayless suggested on Twitter, “Feels like it’s about time to call Taylor Swift a distraction. What do you think, Patrick? Andy? How about you, Travis?” He suggested that the Chiefs, now 9-6 and without a secured playoff berth, might consider Swift a distraction. 

Swift was seen consoling Mahomes’s wife, Brittany, in their Arrowhead suite after the game. This marked the second loss for NFL beau Kelce and the Chiefs with Swift in attendance. The pop star and Brittany have developed a close friendship, often attending games together, and wearing matching red Santa hats for the Christmas Day game with personalized jersey number tributes. The duo even debuted a personal handshake to celebrate Chiefs touchdowns in October.

The Raiders’ defense played a pivotal role, capitalizing on two key touchdowns—a fumble return by Bilal Nichols and a pick-six by Jack Jones. This rare defensive feat, winning without completing a pass after the first quarter, echoed back to the year 2000.
