There was a bit of bad blood between Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce and a couple of Las Vegas Raiders players on Sunday — and Swifties watching the game were ready for it!

During the third quarter, Kelce, 34, pushed Raiders defensive back Amik Robertson and defensive tackle Jerry Tillery after a chippy play that had Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice down on the ground for a moment.
Fans watching the game seemingly gleefully shared enthusiasm about the tight end’s intensity.

“Oh my, Travis Kelce can fight,” the Daily Taylor Swift account wrote on X, while another wrote “Is it hot in here? Is anyone else warm?”
The tight end’s contributions during the game — which the Chiefs went on to win, 31-17 — went far beyond the skirmish, however, with Kelce setting a new NFL record for reaching 11,000 receiving yards in the fewest amount of games (154) as a tight end, according to NFL.com.
The Chiefs star became the fourth tight end to hit the milestone, surpassing Hall of Famer Tony Gonzalez, who previously had the record in 191 games. Gonzalez holds the record for overall yards (15,127), while former Dallas Cowboys star Jason Witten is No. 2 (13,036) and former San Diego/Los Angeles Chargers star Antonio Gates is third on the list (11,841).
