The Kansas City Chiefs took down the Houston Texans 27-19 in Week 16, moving one step close to clinching the No. 1 seed in the playoffs.
If Kansas City can defeat the Pittsburgh Steelers on Christmas Day, they will own a first-round bye and home field advantage in the postseason. While it’s no easy feat playing three games in 11 days, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, who registered five catches for 30 yards against the Texans, isn’t complaining.
“I’ll play whenever, wherever,” Kelce said on the latest episode of his “New Heights” podcast. “I just know that I’m so fortunate to be able to play this game that I’m gonna cherish every time I get to play on this field.”
Cheering Kelce on at Arrowhead Stadium on Saturday, his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, who arrived to GEHA Field with her parents, Scott and Andrea Swift. While photos of the pop star’s full outfit immediately went viral on Dec. 21, the first picture of Swift with Kelce didn’t emerge until Dec. 23.
One fan commented, “They look cozy in those jackets .” Another person wrote, “Awwww, look at them!! They look so good in their complimentary fuzzy coats. ;).” One user online joked, “they’re giving russian mafia this time but she’s the boss and he’s the mob wife.”
With the 32-degree weather in Kansas City, the “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” singer rocked a Charlotte Simone Lulu Red Afghan Coat ($512) with $1,595 back Manolo Blahnik boots. Kelce’s faux fur Marni jacket ($1,595) with Timberland boots.
The man wearing the 87 jersey in the photo, who attended the game with his daughter, went to Villa Angeles-St. Joseph’s High School with Kelce’s father, Ed Kelce, per the school’s post.
Fans hope to see Swift cheering for Kelce when the Chiefs face the Steelers in Week 17, however, the singer has only attended games at Arrowhead Stadium this season. Due to the Chiefs’ remaining schedule, the Texans-Chiefs game might’ve been her last appearance of the regular season.
While the couple is expected to spent the holiday together, it’s unclear if she’ll attend her first away game at Acrisure Stadium on Wednesday.
A source told US magazine earlier this month, “Swift plans on hosting Christmas with her and Kelce’s families and wants to start the New Year on a low-key, restful note.”
