Last night at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Georgia, all eyes were on the NFL stars as the highly anticipated Falcons vs. Kansas City Chiefs game took place. However, whenever the Chiefs play, there’s always another spotlight shining in the crowd-specifically on Taylor Swift.

Ever since the famous singer started dating Travis Kelce, NFL fans have had to share the stage with a different, equally powerful group: the swifties. But last night, football fans breathed a sigh of relief as Taylor Swift was notably absent from the game.

She has always been by KCC side

This marked the first game she’s missed this season. She had attended the Chiefs’ first two games of the campaign, both played in Kansas City.

Swift was nowhere to be found in Atlanta, despite her Eras Tour schedule leaving her free for the night. She was last seen in New York City on Saturday night with her friend Gigi Hadid. 

Travis did not perform and looked well in her absence

Although the Chiefs ended up winning, their performance was less than stellar, and this was evident on the players’ faces. Travis Kelce, in particular, appeared visibly frustrated on the sidelines. It wasn’t his best game, as he continues to work his way back to peak form. While Kansas secured the victory, it felt more like Atlanta faltered in the closing minutes. The Falcons fought until the final whistle, but the reigning Super Bowl champions managed to hold on for the win.

Is Taylor Swift’s absence affecting Travis Kelce’s performance? Will she miss more games this season? These are the questions NFL fans are asking-but only time will tell.
