The Kansas City Chiefs have arrived in Wisconsin ahead of Sunday’s game against the Green Bay Packers.
Travis Kelce and company were filmed stepping off the plane after a short flight from Missouri on Saturday afternoon.
Kelce arrived at the airport wearing a sage green jacket and a fedora hat. On Sunday, the Chiefs, who lead the AFC West, will look to improve their record to 9-3.
Much of the attention has been focused on whether Kelce’s girlfriend Taylor Swift will be in attendance at Lambeau Field.
On Friday, Packers coach Matt LaFleur stated that the pop sensation will be in the stands. Swift has attended several of Kelce’s games since the couple made their relationship public in September.
Travis Kelce and his teammates were spotted stepping off a plane in Wisconsin on Saturday afternoon.
She’s been to Arrowhead three times and will be at MetLife Stadium to watch the Chiefs take on the New York Jets.
The pop star has not attended a Kansas City game since the team’s 31-17 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers on October 22. She has since returned from the most recent leg of her Eras Tour in South America. Despite having completed her final performance until February last weekend, she now appears to be on her way to Green Bay.
‘That’s what it is. ‘I guess it comes with it,’ LaFleur said of Swift on Friday. ‘Does she have a reason to be here? That’s what I’ve been told. So we’ll see what happens.
‘That’s only part of it; we’re definitely more focused on the game. But I’m sure there will be some enraged fans in the stands if she shows up.’
Swift and Kelce first made their relationship public in September, when the pop star traveled to Kansas City to watch the Chiefs beаt the Chicago Bears 41-10.
Swift’s global fanbase has benefited the NFL since then. Swifties are tuning in to catch her cameos, which has increased female viewership of the league.
The Kansas City Chiefs are 4-0 when Swift is in attendance and 2-1 without her in the stands
Swift’s massive fanbase grew the social media followings of Kelce, the Chiefs, and the NFL.
Since Swift began dating the tight end, the Chiefs and Kelce have seen an increase in their fan base.
The Chiefs’ Instagram page gains an average of 18,383 new followers with each Swift appearance, according to data from Averagebeing. Meanwhile, Kelce adds an average of 124,090 new followers to his supporters’ section with Swift.
Swift’s presence, however, appears to boost more than just Kelce’s or the team’s social media following. The Chiefs are 4-0 when Swift is present and 2-1 when she is not.
Kelce has also performed worse when his girlfriend is not present. When Swift is present, the tight end averages 108 receiving yards and only 46.5 yards when she is not. On Sunday, the Chiefs and Packers will face off at 8:20 p.m. ET.
