Travis Kelce, the star tight-end for Kansas City Chiefs, has achieved a new milestone in the Chiefs franchise history. Kelce is now ahead of former Chiefs' tight-end, Tony Gonzalez, with 10,941 receiving yards to his name.
Kelce's record-breaking performance was during the game against the Miami Dolphins, where he managed 14 yards from 3 catches. It seems that Kelce's remarkable performance has an interesting correlation with the presence of his girlfriend, pop star Taylor Swift, at games.
Swift’s Influence on Kelce’s Performance
Tracks of Kelce's performance suggest an improvement when Swift is present at the games. Furthermore, the Chiefs had not experienced any losses since Swift started lending her support. However, this winning streak recently snapped with a loss against the Denver Broncos.
Kelce didn't hold back expressing his feelings on the loss. He called it “frustrating” and “embarrassing”.
What's intriguing is that while Kelce was playing the game, Swift was spotted in New York City enjoying a night out with her celebrity friends – Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid, Sophie Turner, and Brittany Mahomes, wife of Chiefs' quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
Taylor Swift’s Breaking Records of Her Own
Not just Kelce, but Swift is also making headlines for breaking records. Worldwide, she sold 3.5 million units of her album 1989 (Taylor's Version). This feat broke her all-time first week sales record. Swift continues to set records, being the first artist to have six #1 album debuts with over one million units sold in the first week of release.
