Travis Kelce, Patrick Mahomes, and Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid were seen boarding the team bus to US Bank Stadium for Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings, but Taylor Swift was mysteriously absence leading up to the 4:15pm EST kickoff.

Wearing a partially unbuttoned white, silk shirt and some brown pants that may have been velvet, the mustachioed Kelce loaded himself on the team bus in Minneapolis, where hope to win their fourth consecutive game.

The team is 2-0 with Kelce’s new girlfriend, Swift, in the crowd.

She was at Sunday’s game against the New York Jets in East Rutherford, New Jersey, where the Chiefs pulled out a difficult 23-20 victory to improve to 3-1. A week earlier, Swift was in Kansas City to see Kelce score a touchdown in an easy 41-10 win over the Chicago Bears.

For both games, Swift was pictured in a suite alongside Kelce’s mother, Donna.

Minneapolis gave a mixed welcome to the Chiefs on Sunday.

One billboard for a local radio station simply read ‘Beat Taylor’s Boyfriend’ on a purple background – the colors of the Vikings.

Another ad from pharmaceutical company Pfizer said ‘Welcome’ with a jersey saying ‘Mr Pfizer 87’ on the back.

The latter billboard is a reference to the nickname granted to him by injured Jets quarterback and noted anti-vaxxer Aaron Rodgers.

Rodgers gave Kelce that nickname after the tight end began appearing in that company’s advertisements for their Covid-19 vaccine.

Kelce has long prided himself on his ability to compartmentalize his personal life and his professional life.

That ability has been put to the test the past few weeks.

Ever since the All-Pro tight end’s budding relationship Swift surfaced, Kelce has become an A-list headline-maker in his own right.
