No, Taylor Swift's relationship with Travis Kelce didn't completely derail the Kansas City Chiefs' season.
The pop star was back at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday, as the defending Super Bowl champions topped the Cincinnati Bengals 25-17 to bounce back from their Christmas Day loss to the rival Las Vegas Raiders.
However, Kelce was almost a non-factor for Patrick Mahomes & Co. and finished the game with just three catches for 16 yards on four targets. He remains just a few yards shy of his eighth straight 1,000-yard season.
For the 10-6 Chiefs, the win was significant. Not only does Kansas City win its eighth straight AFC West crown, but it also comes after a miserable 3-8 streak that threatened their entire season.
Of course, many suggested that Swift was somehow responsible for distracting Kelce and the Chiefs from their task, but that wasn't the case on Sunday as Kansas City came back to beat the Bengals, who fell to 8-8.
