Fans are wondering if Taylor Swift will be in the stands to support her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, as the Kansas City Chiefs prepare to play the Houston Texans in a crucial playoff matchup.
For the Chiefs, Swift’s presence has taken on the role of a lucky charm, and it appears that she may visit Arrowhead Stadium on Saturday.
Kelce alluded to the thrilling environment anticipated during the game in an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show.
When McAfee asked, “Is there going to be an aura in that place, a little bit extra? You know what we’re talking about,” Kelce confidently replied, “Oh yeah, you know it, baby. It’s playoff football, man.”

Swift has seen all of the Chiefs’ home games this season, including their 27-19 victory over the Texans on December 21. If the Chiefs continue to win, they will get at least two home games in the playoffs because they have secured the No. 1 seed in the AFC.
Her steadfast assistance goes beyond this season. Swift braved cold temperatures for the Chiefs’ wild-card game in Kansas City and traveled across the nation to support the team at all four of their playoff games last year. A 17-hour travel from Tokyo to the Super Bowl was the result of her efforts.
With Swift there, the Chiefs have played a fantastic game. When she is watching, Kansas City has a 16-3 record since she started dating Kelce, including an undefeated postseason run. In 11 of those 19 games, they have covered against the spread, demonstrating an outstanding 60.53% success percentage.
Kansas City is the clear favorite going into Saturday’s matchup, with odds suggesting an 81.8% chance of winning. Their advantage is further cemented by head coach Andy Reid’s record after bye weeks, which stands at 13-4 straight up.
But the Texans should not be taken lightly. They defeated the Chargers 32–12 in the wild-card round, showcasing a strong defense, especially on third downs, where they are ranked third in the NFL. The Chiefs’ potent attack, which is led by Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes, may be challenged by this defensive prowess.
Swift’s presence is highly likely based on Kelce’s passionate response, even though he did not specifically confirm it. Often referred to as a lucky charm, her presence may help the Chiefs’ spirits as they aim for yet another postseason triumph.
Fans will be curious to see if Swift’s success continues as the Chiefs and Texans get ready for their matchup, with Swift possibly adding another chapter to her status as Kansas City’s most well-known fan.
