Singer Taylor Swift‘s daily agenda for Sunday, September 29th, was missing a crucial item: her beau, Travis Kelce‘s football game!
The 34-year-old “So High School” singer has been a mainstay in VIP boxes across the country for Kansas City Chiefs football games since she began dating the team’s tight-end quarterback last year. Fans have spotted the pop princess with multiple celebrities, and Kelce’s mother, Donna Kelce, while taking in the drama on the field.
Lately, however, the “Karma” songstress has not been seen at her man’s games.
Swift’s absence has been thought to correlate with Kelce’s seemingly lackluster performance on the field, and his somber demeanor.

Taylor Swift Was Absent From Yesterday’s Kansas City Chiefs Game
The “Guilty As Sin” singer memorably entered the stadium for the first Kansas City Chiefs game of the season wearing all denim, but fans and viewers haven’t seen Swift around to rock any looks lately.
In addition to the team’s game against the Atlanta Falcons last weekend, Swift was nowhere to be found at yesterday’s game against the Los Angeles Chargers, according to Page Six.
The “I Can See You” singer has been thought to have influenced Kelce’s string of lackluster performances lately; his unusual subdued demeanor following last week’s game was thought to be because his girl wasn’t in the stands, as previously reported by The Blast.

Even if Swift was not at his side during a game, the “New Heights” podcast host cannot escape her influence: fellow NFL players have threatened to use Swift-related insults against him, as well.

The Kansas City Chiefs Tight End Has Opened Up About Recent Performances
The NFL star is aware of fan reception regarding his latest performances on the field and has recently addressed them behind the mic, as previously reported by The Blast.
Chatting with his brother, Jason, the youngest Kelce admitted the team could put in a stronger effort on the field.
“We’re finding ways to win games, but we’re not playing our best football. Everybody can clean it up. I think everyone saw my drop in the fourth quarter with that crucial third down,” Kelce explained. He also alluded to needing to shift his focus onto more crucial plays in the game, chatting about the goal of “making the play in big-time moments,” instead of concentrating on more intricate moves.

Kelce also criticized the tactics of the opposing team’s defense. He continued, “I think with how defenses are playing us right now, I’m not really getting a lot of opportunities to make plays down the field, but not using that as an excuse.”
Overall, the tight end has a plan to bring his best self in the future. Kelce noted the team is working on “tweaking” their game in a better direction, while personally noting all of the ways in which he can be more helpful to his team makes overall.
Jason also reassured listeners that his little brother has been “frustrated” with his performances lately. The former Philadelphia Eagles player also discussed his beliefs that the opposing team’s offense is purposely trying to work hard on “taking Kelse out of the picture.”

Taylor Swift May Be Bonding With Her Besties
Even though Ms. Swift hasn’t publicly been by her beau’s side lately, that doesn’t mean there is trouble in paradise for the superstar couple!
The “Castles Crumbling” songstress seemingly had a few factors keeping her away from the stadium in Atlanta last week. According to Glamour, a source divulged to The Sun, “Going to the game in Atlanta wasn’t possible because she had scheduled time with some friends, like Gigi Hadid, whom she spent time with on the weekend, and other friends that she hasn’t seen in a while.”
The “Peter” singer does have a notable engagement on her calendar soon: the latter half of The Eras Tour, which has kept Swift on an international trek for over a year.
The tour is set to end in early December. The source added that Kelce’s gal reportedly wanted to get some girl time in before she resumed touring.

The Football Star Did Not Accompany His Girl To The VMAs
In addition to preparation for the last Eras Tour dates, the “Style” singer received some ‘moon men’ at the MTV VMA awards earlier this month, as previously reported by The Blast.
While she was seen alongside “Fortnight” duet partner Post Malone on stage, a certain member of her entourage was notably missing: her man.
Kelce’s lack of presence was soon soothed by Swift’s acceptance speech for Video Of The Year when Swift referenced how much “fun” and “magic” that her beau brought to the set.
“Everything this man touches turns to happiness and fun and magic,” she told the audience. “So I want to thank him for adding that to our shoot because I will always remember that,” Swift said in her speech.
Taylor Swift Will Soon Have Some Time To Rest

A source revealed to US Weekly, “It’s been amazing since Taylor and Travis reunited,” also revealing the couple had been seen hanging out with a number of notable celebs at Swift’s Rhode Island mansion, including Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds.
