Travis Kelce scored his first touchdown of the season in Week 8 against the Las Vegas Raiders, and fans couldn't help but link it to the Kansas City Chiefs star's girlfriend, Taylor Swift. With under two minutes remaining in the second quarter, Kelce connected with quarterback Patrick Mahomes for a five-yard touchdown catch. It was also his first touchdown in a regular season contest since November of 2023, breaking a 12-game TD drought for him.
Interestingly, Kelce's touchdown came just a night after Swift performed a touchdown celebration in her New Orleans concert on Saturday. That said, fans couldn't help but notice that interesting coincidence (or not). Travis Kelce's first TD of year? On #NationalTightEndsDay ! πΊ: #KCvsLV on CBS/Paramount+ π±: https://t.

"Travis Kelce gets his first touchdown of the season in a game against the Raiders that is also the 75th touchdown of his career and Taylor Swift apparently predicted it.
Happy National Tight End Day to all who celebrate," a commenter added . Β© Brett Davis-Imagn Images Indeed, Taylor Swift's touchdown celebration couldn't have come at a better time. Perhaps it's the reason why Travis Kelce was motivated to score, or maybe the pop star really predicted it.
Regardless, it's a reason to celebrate not just for the Chiefs faithful, but also for the power couple. Hopefully, it's just the first of many more touchdowns for Kelce after his rough start to the season. Related: Taylor Swift's Real Reason for Skipping Travis Kelce, Chiefs' Away Games.
