Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs Win in Overtime as Taylor Swift Returns to Cheer Them on

The Kansas City Chiefs improved to a perfect 8-0 on the NFL season after an overtime thriller — with Taylor Swift’s seal of approval!

Travis Kelce, Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs defeated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 24-17 at Arrowhead Stadium on Monday, Nov. 4, while Swift, 34, supported her boyfriend during the Week 9 game in Kansas City.

Kelce caught 14 passes for 100 receiving yards as Swift — wearing a vintage-style Chiefs leather jacket and knee-high Christian Louboutin boots — cheered him on.

Just before halftime, Kelce fumbled the ball, but the Chiefs pulled out another win with a dominant second half.

Early in the fourth quarter, Mahomes, 29, appeared to suffer the injury while running the ball toward the end zone. The Chiefs quarterback flinched as he landed hard on his ankle, which was already injured.

Fortunately, Mahomes was soon back on the court.

Overtime quieted the fans at Arrowhead Stadium as Kelce made several tackles on Mahomes, but running back Kareem Hunt helped the Chiefs seal the victory in overtime with the final touchdown.

The Chiefs’ win on Monday comes a week after Kelce had his best game of the season, complete with a touchdown, against the Las Vegas Raiders on Oct. 27. The dominant performance ended a bit of a dry spell and started a new season for Kelce, who admitted he has suffered from a slow start to his 12th NFL season.

After the Week 8 win, Kelce celebrated with a rare Instagram post commemorating his first touchdown of the season, captioning the photo, “Vegas baby!! Vegas!!”

Next, the Chiefs host the Denver Broncos at home on Sunday, November 10th.
