Taylor Swift skipped her first NFL game of the season on Sunday night as boyfriend Travis Kelce endured another miserable outing for the Kansas City Chiefs.
Swift attended the Chiefs’ opening two games of the 2024 campaign, both of which were played in Kansas City, but was nowhere to be seen in Atlanta as they sealed a 22-17 victory over the Falcons.
The pop megastar racked up thousands of air miles following the team last season, even jetting over 5,000 miles from Tokyo to Las Vegas to make it to the Super Bowl in February.
Yet despite the current gap in her Eras Tour schedule, Swift turned down the chance to join the Chiefs on the road in Atlanta.
The songstress was not seen landing in the Georgia city or making it to Mercedes-Benz Stadium for the game. Kelce, meanwhile, arrived wearing an oversized black suit and red sneakers.

And as he failed to make an impact on yet another game this season, Kelce could be seen looking miserable on the Chiefs bench in Atlanta.
The 34-year-old, who had just four catches for 30 yards, appeared downbeat as he rubbed his eye and stared into space at the end of the first half.
On Saturday Swift was spotted on a lowkey night out with BFF Gigi Hadid in New York City, where she rocked a plaid miniskirt as they grabbed a bite to eat at The Corner Store restaurant in SoHo.
Swift was not in attendance despite Kansas City making a clever reference about her in a post on X tonight.
Alongside a photo of Kelce arriving at the stadium, the Chiefs captioned the post: ‘Happiness. Fun. Magic.’
That caption was a reference to Swift’s famous VMA Awards speech earlier this month, in which she lauded her man for the ‘fun’ and ‘magic’ he gives her.
Her legion of fans loved the reference and took to the replies to share their approval.
‘Whoever the admin is I LOVE YOU,’ one said.
‘That caption is perfect,’ said another.
‘I see what you did there,’ a third fan added.

Kelce was dressed for the occasion when he made his arrival at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in a bold oversized black jacket and tie.
The tight end completed the look with a white dress shirt, sunglasses and bright red sneakers after he boarded the team bus in black slip-ons moments before.
Meanwhile, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes also looked dapper as he wore a navy pinstriped suit and a baby blue tie.
When he touched down in Atlanta on Saturday, Kelce stepped off the plane donning a similar all-black outfit to the one he arrived at the stadium in a day later
And fans were convinced he had Swift on the brain when deciding what to wear for the flight.
In a video captured by the Chiefs’ media team, Travis walked down the steps of the plane in an all-black ensemble – including a cap that read: ‘He got game’.
He wore a black t-shirt with a blazer over the top, black pants, black slip-on sandals, and he carried a black bag in his right hand.

The bold look instantly sent Swifties wild on social media, as they claimed he was referencing his girlfriend’s 2017 album Reputation.
During the Reputation ‘Era’ of her sold-out worldwide tour, which Kelce has regularly attended, Swift dons her own all-black outfit on stage.
In the comments section on the Chiefs’ post, one fan wrote: ‘Big reputation,’ while another added: ‘Who’s afraid of little old Travvy… you should be’, referencing some Swift lyrics.
Others, though, were not so fond of the fit, as one noted: ‘Ewww he blew it with that outfit. Those pants and shoes got to go.’
Somebody else asked: ‘Why is he wearing slippers?’
