Could Taylor Swift Be More Involved with Chiefs? Patrick Mahomes Says She Is 'Drawing Up Plays'

Could the Swiftie razzle-dazzle make its way into the Kansas City Chiefs’ playbook?
That’s the question making the rounds of the co-joined worlds of pop music and pro football after Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes mentioned pop czarina Taylor Swift’s latest interest in a recent interview.
(For the sake of those emerging from under a very large rock, somewhere about 10,000 luxury box crowd shots of Swift ago, the 2023 season saw Swift’s romance with Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce become a major NFL story line.)
Mahomes said that’s far from over as Swift becomes more and more interested in football — and the Chiefs become more popular among female fans.
“I think it’s been cool to see the girls and the women that have really embraced watching football,” Mahomes said, according to NFL.com.
“I know, being a girl dad, how cool it is for me to see like these little girls — these daughters — and how much they’re loving to spend time with their dad watching football,” he said.
“And then meeting Taylor, realizing how genuine and cool she is. I think that’s been special to me because she’s, like you said, the most famous person in the world. She could not be [more genuine],” he said.
Then came the revelation.
“And she’s really interested in football, and she asks a lot of great questions. Started drawing up plays. We might have to put one in,” Mahomes said.
The comment produced a buzz.
It’s truly over if the Chiefs start running Taylor Swift plays. 🧐 pic.twitter.com/E24mnOnWiB

This is going to go one of two way: Taylor swift will either destroy the chiefs by making up the worst plays imaginable which would force me to be the biggest swiftie on the planet. Or Taylor swift will revolutionize football thus giving the chiefs another 7 Super Bowls https://t.co/92vT7agVxO

During a recent Chiefs event, defensive tackle Chris Jones kept the Chiefs-Swift connection going, according to the U.K.’s Daily Mail.
Jones said that in addition to the Lombardi Trophy making its way to Kanasa City again, he wanted “more Swifties.”
“They’re on the way,” Kelce told him.
