LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Travis Kelce, the star tight end of the Kansas City Chiefs, has playfully attributed his recent string of NFL victories to none other than global pop sensation Taylor Swift, whom he affectionately calls his "good luck charm."

This intriguing revelation has sent the rumor mill into overdrive, especially since Swift made a surprising appearance at Arrowhead Stadium during the Chiefs' Week 3 clash against the Chicago Bears on September 24.

Swift's enchanting effect on the Chiefs

Swift's presence seemed to work its magic as the Chiefs emerged victorious with a resounding 41-10 win over the Bears, during which Kelce scored a crucial touchdown.

Notably, Swift was seated in a luxury suite, accompanied by Kelce's mother, Donna.

The following week, she continued her support, witnessing the Chiefs' thrilling 23-20 victory over the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium on Sunday Night Football.

However, Swift was conspicuously absent during the Chiefs' recent 27-20 triumph against the Minnesota Vikings in Minneapolis.

Despite Kelce experiencing a brief ankle injury scare during the game, he returned to score a touchdown, securing a third consecutive win since Swift started following the team closely.

Sources close to the couple reported to The Messenger that Kelce playfully refers to Swift as his "good luck charm," indicating the positive influence she seems to bring to the team.

Swift herself has been thoroughly enjoying her time at these games, relishing the opportunity to unwind and support Kelce after a year of hard work.

"He jokes she is his good luck charm. Taylor is having the time of her life at these football games cheering on Travis. Her and her friends are fully embracing this era and are having a lot of fun being there. Taylor has worked very hard this last year and It's fun for her to bring all of her friends along, let loose and show support," the source said.

Eagles' Darius Slay jokes about Swift's impact on Kelce and the Chiefs

The Chiefs' string of victories since Swift's involvement hasn't gone unnoticed, with some humorous suggestions that she should steer clear of Kelce's brother, Jason Kelce, and his team, the Philadelphia Eagles, when they face off later this season at Arrowhead Stadium on November 20.

Darius Slay, a teammate of Jason Kelce, humorously cautioned Swift against attending the game, citing her uncanny ability to bring good fortune to the Chiefs, as reported by The Mirror.

Slay quipped on his "Big Play Slay" podcast, "Taylor Swift, she might not miss a game this year, she might not. And it looks like they [the Chiefs] 2-0 with her. Taylor, do not come to the game. Do not come to the game cause you seem like you bring the energy of winning, so do not come to that game."

Fortunately for the Eagles, Swift's busy schedule is likely to keep her away from the game, as she is set to embark on her 'Eras Tour' in South America, with a tour date scheduled for Sunday, November 19 in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil.

Swifties celebrate singer's influence on Kelce and the Chiefs

Swift's impact on Kelce and the Chiefs has not only caught the attention of the NFL world but also her loyal fanbase, known as Swifties. Fans have embraced the notion that Swift is indeed Kelce's "good luck charm."

One Swiftie on X exclaimed, "She’s always there to support." Another fan remarked, "No Taylor no win." Yet another supporter enthusiastically declared, "Taylor is the best good luck charm. SWIFTIES FOR TRAVIS!!"

As one fan aptly pointed out, "Indeed Taylor is," while another fan enthusiastically declared, "Taylor swift is everyone’s goodluck charm. We stand for Taylor."

Although Swift was also absent from Kelce's recent birthday celebration, their relationship appears to be flourishing.

During a press conference on October 6, Kelce expressed his joy, saying, "As all the attention comes, it feels like ... I was on top of the world after the Super Bowl, and right now, even more on top of the world."

According to an insider cited by OK Magazine, the duo's relationship has the potential to endure.

"They’re taking it day by day, but she has high hopes. She likes that he’s a normal, nice guy. He’s down-to-earth and isn't affected by fame," the insider revealed.

This development follows Swift's split from Joe Alwyn earlier this year, signifying a new chapter in her personal life.

The irresistible combination of Kelce's football prowess and Swift's "Swiftie charm" continues to bewitch fans and pundits alike, making them an intriguing duo to watch both on and off the field.
