As the Kansas City Chiefs are one of two undefeated teams in the NFL, Chiefs safety Justin Reid had some negotiating with Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. After Kelce and Swift were caught kissing after the Week 5 win, Reid was on the Up and Adams show with Kay Adams, and they discussed the effect on the star tight end.
Adams: Do you think he (Travis Kelce) plays better when Taylor is there?
Reid: Absolutely, who doesn’t play better when they want to impress their girlfriend?
Adams: But that’s like a thing people are literally saying. Do you believe it, do you buy that?
Reid: Yeah absolutely. Taylor come to all the games. keep coming Taylor.
Adams: Taylor please keep coming to the games.
The numbers back up what Reid is convincing to Swift. In a sportingnews.com story, they found out the statistics when the global superstar attended games. Kelce totaled 89 catches for 1,039 yards and five touchdowns in games attended by Swift. That’s good for an average of 6.8 catches and 79.9 yards per game, which are great numbers for a tight end.
Is the Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift effect real for the Chiefs?
Despite the numbers from the dynamic duo, the numbers haven’t been as crazy as the past two seasons. Kelce has only totaled 24 receptions for 228 yards and zero touchdowns so far. However, the game against the New Orleans Saints looked like the old Kelce. He had nine receptions for 70 yards. While he’s still searching for his first touchdown of the season, he’ll get there in due time.
