Jason Kelce knowsTaylor Swift will never go out of style.
The Monday Night Football analyst interrupted his commentary to react to the โDown Badโ singer's arrival at his brotherโand her boyfriendโTravis Kelceโs Kansas City Chiefs game against the New Orleans Saints at Arrowhead Stadium Oct. 7.
"Hey, look at that now," Jason said in a clip shared to X from the Oct. 7 ESPN show when the camera cut to Taylor arriving at the venue. "That looks good."
And the โKarmaโ singer certainly did make the whole place shimmer with her game-night ensemble, walking to her suite in a plaid Vivienne Westwood matching skirt-and-shirt set with a heart-shaped bodice and a coordinating heart-shaped Vivienne Westwood purse. To top off the look, she rocked sparkly faux freckles across her face and wore her signature red lip.
Earlier in the day, Jasonโwho made his debut as an NFL analyst in Septemberโposted on X (formerly Twitter) that he was making a day of the football game, even partaking in tailgating with fans.
โHeaded into the Kansas City tailgate scene before the game today,โ the former Philadelphia Eagles center wrote. โProbably hitting lots C and D, anybody have any recommendations on things I have to hit, or a tailgate Shaman that can show me the ropes this afternoon?โ

As for the Grammy winnerโwhose Eras tour resumes Oct. 18 in Miamiโshe was a no-show at the two most recent Chiefs games as well as Travisโs Kelce Car Jam event Oct. 5, which coincided with his 35th birthday. But at the event, which raised money for the athleteโs 87 and Running Foundation, he insisted her absence was nothing to worry about.
โShe will not be here right now,โ he told a reporter at the car show, as seen in a video posted on Page Six's TikTok Oct. 6. โI know she's coming in for the game.โ
In fact, Taylor gave a nod to her beau just days ago when she released a new collection of merchandise on her website called โThe Greatest In the League,โ a lyric from her song โThe Alchemy.โ The merch dropโinspired by the singerโs most recent studio album The Tortured Poets Departmentโwent live on Oct. 3, which just so happens to be National Boyfriend Day.

July 2023: So, Make the Friendship Bracelets
As a huge Swiftie, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end caught the show with hopes of giving Taylor a friendship bracelet with his number on it. However, he failed to complete the pass due to her pre-show rituals.
"I was disappointed that she doesn't talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings," Travis shared on the July 26 episode of his New Heights podcast. "So, I was a little butt-hurt I didn't get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her.
"I threw it out there, I threw the ball in her court," he shared on The Pat McAfee Show. "I told her, you know, 'I've seen you rock the stage in Arrowhead, you might have to come see me rock the stage in Arrowhead and see which one's a little more lit.' So, we'll see what happens in the near future.
As he later noted of the era, "That 'stache and the 87 jersey was pretty iconic there for a little bit, and I had it when I met Taylor for the first time.
"It's been very low-key," the insider explained, "as he's been in season.
Though folklore had it that it was the couple's first in-person meeting, the "Karma" singer later clarified the two had spent a "significant amount of time" getting to know each other beforehand.
As Taylor noted, "We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date."
"Karma is that guy on the Chiefs," Taylor sang, "coming straight home to me."
After the show, the Midnights artist was seen running up to Travis backstage and greeting him with a passionate kiss
"I'm going to see him do what he loves, we're showing up for each other, other people are there and we don't care," she told Time. "The opposite of that is you have to go to an extreme amount of effort to make sure no one knows that you're seeing someone."
"Tay, I'm gonna enjoy with the guys," he told her. "I love youโso much it's not funny."
