With Taylor Swift watching again at Arrowhead Field, Travis Kelce had his best performance of the season yet — and Chiefs head coach Andy Reid is more than happy for the pop star to stick around.
As Kansas City defeated the Chargers 31-17, Kelce racked up 12 catches for a whopping 179 receiving yards and a touchdown.
And Swift, who was seen with Brittany Mahomes at the game, is always welcome in Missouri.
“Kelce is getting better with time, Taylor can stay around all she wants,” Reid said after the match.
During Kelce’s amazing performance, CBS showed a hilarious image showing that he performs better when Swift is present.
The image, captioned “You Belong With TE,” referencing the pop star’s 2008 hit “You Belong With Me” and the NFL star’s position at tight end, showed Kelce, when Swift was present , receiving an average of 99 yards per game. at that point of the matchup (his final numbers from Sunday’s game increased that mark to 108).
By comparison, CBS showed that when Swift isn’t there, or in their words when Kelce is “left to his own devices,” which is a lyric from “Anti-Hero,” the lead single from her 2022 Midnights album, he averaged just 46.5 yards per play.

Sunday marked the fourth time in five weeks that Swift saw her new friend play, and the singer seemed to have a great time as the Chiefs improved to 6-1.
She and Mahomes, the wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick, enjoyed taking in the action together, even breaking into a dance during the first half.
Swift, with a drink in hand, and Brittany, who held her 11-month-old son Bronze in her arms, swayed back and forth as they bumped their heads in time.
The 33-year-old artist was even spotted wearing a friendship bracelet with ’87’ on it, which is his jersey number for the Chiefs.
The Love Story singer waved to the fans who came to Arrowhead to see her as much as the Chiefs, holding some signs that read, “Go Taylor’s boyfriend.”
The pop sensation had returned to Arrowhead after enjoying lunch at Kelce’s home in Missouri earlier in the day.

However, the ‘Midnights’ singer won’t be able to see Kelce in action for much longer this season.
Swift resumes her Eras Tour in Argentina on November 9.
However, the show coincides with the Chiefs’ Week 10 bye, which raises the question of whether Kelce will fly to Buenos Aires to see Swift.
The pair will also get the chance to spend more time together during a break in the Eras Tour between November 26 and February 7.
But when Kelce and the Chiefs return to the Super Bowl on February 11, it seems unlikely that Swift will be in attendance as she will be in Tokyo the day before.
