The Kansas City Chiefs are preparing for a critical "Sunday Night Football" clash with the Detroit Lions as they look to avoid falling to 2-4 to open the season. Will Taylor Swift be in attendance for the game?
Swift hasn't yet appeared at a Chiefs game during the 2025 NFL season after being a staple at contests during the 2023 and 2024 seasons. She last supported her future husband, Travis Kelce, in-person at the Chiefs' Super Bowl 59 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Could that change Sunday in Kansas City? Swift is just nine days removed from releasing her most recent album, "The Life of a Showgirl." Perhaps with that in the rearview, she will take a moment to take in what will kickstart a critical and difficult stretch for the Chiefs.
Here's what to know about Swift and whether she'll be in attendance for "Sunday Night Football" in Week 6.
Is Taylor Swift at the Chiefs game tonight?
Yes, Taylor Swift is confirmed to be in attendance for the Chiefs' "Sunday Night Football" game against the Lions in NFL Week 6.
The NBC broadcast showed Swift enjoying the game in a suite, along with Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark.
This marked the first confirmed Swift sighting at a Chiefs game thus far during the 2025 NFL season. Many speculated the pop star was in attendance for Kansas City's Week 2 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles, but there was no hard proof of her presence.
Kelce has typically performed better when his fiancée is confirmed to be in attendance and watching him play. Here's a look at the star tight end's splits when she is and isn't confirmed to be in attendance.
