Will Taylor Swift Be In Town for Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs’ First Pre-Season Game?

Kelce landed in Jacksonville for Saturday’s game last night,  alighting from the team jet and onto the Florida tarmac. The newly mustached tight end is expected to play in today’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, coach Andy Reid said earlier this week, though pre-season games are often when a team lets its untested talent take the field.

I’m gonna play everybody,” Reid said on Wednesday. “As far as the play time for this game, we’ll go the ones for a quarter, twos for the 2nd quarter, threes for the 3rd quarter, and the fours for the 4th quarter.” By “the ones,” Reid means the team’s starters, Travis Kelce and quarterback Patrick Mahomes , among other top-level players.

In other words, folks who want to see Kelce in action should roll into the game by 6 p.m. ET, as he’ll only be on the field for the first 15 minutes of play. And now we turn to the most burning of questions: will Taylor Swift be one of those rolling into EverBank Stadium for the game?

A representative for Swift has not responded to Vanity Fair’s inquiry as of publication time, so the best answer we can offer is “maybe?” Swift, as you know, is still in the middle of her Eras Tour, so if I was writing this last week, I’d be telling you her tour dates in Vienna would make an appearance impossible. But then came the shocking news that multiple suspects were allegedly planning a coordinated terror attacks at the shows at Vienna’s Ernst Happel Stadium, which had been scheduled for August 8–10. The concerts were consequently canceled, and Swift’s calendar arguably opened up.

Swift’s next shows aren’t until Thursday, August 15, when she returns to London’s Wembley Arena—the same stage where in June, a tuxedoed Kelce joined her on stage, and where a far more casually dressed Kelce posed for a selfie with Swift, Prince William, Prince George, and Princess Charlotte. All that to say that if she feels an interest in pre-season play, Swift could certainly appear at today’s ball game.

If not, Swift’s next chance to watch Kelce play will be on August 22, when the Chiefs meet the Chicago Bears in their final game before the regular season begins. (Swift will be mid-Wembley dates when the Chiefs play the Detroit Lions on August 17.) As the Eras tour takes a pause from August 20 to November 14, we’re even more likely to see Swift at the five Chiefs games scheduled during that break.
