Amid rumors of romance with athlete, Taylor Swift returns to attend Kansas City Chiefs game in the NFL

Singer Taylor Swift is in New York this Sunday (1st), where she is watching the match between the Kansas City Chiefs and New York Jets, during the NFL regular season.

Taylor, who is believed to be in a relationship with Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, is attending a team game for the second time in a row.

Last week, she watched the game against the Chicago Bears, alongside Donna Kelce, the player’s mother, at Arrowhead Stadium, in Kansas City. This Sunday, the singer was also seen alongside actor Ryan Reynolds.

Speculation about the couple began earlier this month when Kelce said on his podcast, “New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce,” that he tried to pass his phone number through a friendship bracelet he made for Swift during one of his shows on the “Eras” tour.

Unfortunately, he told his brother Jason that he was “disappointed” to learn that she doesn’t speak before or after shows because “she has to save her voice for the 44 songs she sings.” “So I was a little hurt that I didn’t give her one of the bracelets I made for her,” he added.

However, Kelce appears to have tried one more move. On Thursday, during her conversation with ESPN, Kelce said, “I threw the ball in her court and told her, ‘I saw you rock the stage at Arrowhead. You might have to come see me rock the stage at Arrowhead and see which one is a little brighter.”

Increase in ticket and shirt sales in the NFL

The rumors about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s relationship mark the meeting between two of the most powerful forces in North American pop culture: the giant Swift, in the middle of her “Eras Tour”, and the National Football League (NFL), the American football league in the United States.

Since Swift’s appearance in Kansas City last week, ticket sales for the Jets’ game against the Chiefs have soared, with single-day sales more than doubling this season’s previous record, with the exception of the opening game of the team, according to StubHub.

Sports merchandise retailer Fanatics, the official e-commerce partner of the NFL, said there was a nearly 400% increase in sales of Travis Kelce jerseys on its sites, including NFLShop.com, on Sunday, putting it among the top five best-selling shirts in the league.

The player also saw his followers on social media grow by 300 thousand.
