During the Kansas City Chiefs’ Week 11 game against the Buffalo Bills, Travis Kelce found himself missing Taylor Swift.
The pop star’s absence on Sunday was greatly felt by Kelce and her hordes of fans, who had been eagerly awaiting her appearance despite her apparently hectic schedule permitting her to attend previous games.
Swift’s Performance History on Game Days
Taylor Swift has been a regular sight at Kansas City Chiefs games since they made their relationship public more than a year ago, supporting Kelce and his teammates.

To the delight of her loyal fans, the “Eras Tour” star has gone to five shows so far this season. Swifties tune in just to see her reactions in the stands, and her frequent appearances have become a highlight for many.
A Busy Schedule
Swift frequently lacks spontaneity due to her hectic schedule, particularly with her ongoing Eras Tour. Due to a two-week break between tour legs, she made her final appearance at Arrowhead Stadium during the Chiefs’ narrow 16–14 victory over the Denver Broncos. That pause came after her second leg of the U.S. tour concluded on November 3 in Indianapolis, Indiana.
But this Sunday’s game was something else entirely. With consecutive performances at Rogers Center on November 15 and 16, Swift’s global tour got underway in Toronto, Canada, on November 14.
Although there was conjecture that she might manage to visit Buffalo, New York’s Highmark Stadium, she probably was unable to do so due to her obligations following her performance in Toronto on Saturday.

A Charm That Helps the Chiefs Win
Taylor Swift has shown herself to be more than just a helpful girlfriend; the Chiefs have practically turned her into a lucky charm. She went to 13 games last season, including the playoffs, and the team won 10 of them. With Swift present, Kansas City has won all five of their games this season, giving them an undefeated 9-0 record.
Swift has an impact on Travis Kelce outside of the team. When Swift was present at games in 2023, Kelce’s performance hit new heights. He accumulated 1,039 yards from 89 receptions, averaging 11.7 yards per catch, and averaged 79.9 receiving yards during those games. Although some might attribute his outstanding performance to the Chiefs’ general caliber, supporters think Swift’s presence gives the tight end even more motivation.
A Story of Love Across the Globe
Since its inception, Swift and Kelce’s well-known romance has generated a lot of attention, and the two have been known to support each other’s professional endeavors. Swift and Kelce appear willing to travel across continents to support one another, whether it’s Swift going to his games or Kelce traveling to her concerts.
