Afotimber Travis Kelce sure knows how to make the most out of his bye week.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end was spotted at Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour show in Argentina on Saturday. And the 12-time Grammy Award-winning pop star had a surprise in store for her special guest. The singer closed out her concert in Buenos Aires by tweaking the lyrics to her hit song “Karma” to include a nod to Kelce.
“Karma is the guy on the Chiefs, coming straight home to me,” Swift sang, causing the crowd in attendance to erupt. The song’s original lyrics were: “Karma is the guy on the screen, coming straight home to me.”
Here’s a look at some of the other highlights from the show.

Kelce Reacts to Swift’s ‘Karma’ Change Swift has made headlines by attending several Chiefs games to watch Kelce play during the first half of the 2023 National Football League (NFL) season. Now, Kelce has returned the favor.
And Kelce, 34, was just as surprised that Swift, 33, changed the lyrics to “Karma” as the fans in the stands.
The eight-time Pro Bowler watched the concert alongside Swift’s father, Scott, in a VIP tent, as footage posted to X, formerly Twitter, by concertgoers shows. When Swift switched up her song, Kelce flashed a grin and covered his face as the singer’s dad, who was wearing a Chiefs lanyard despite being a well-documented Philadelphia Eagles fan, tapped the two-time Super Bowl champion in excitement. They both then started waving their hands in the air as the song continued.
A variety of other videos were posted by fans in attendance. One showed Kelce making a heart sign with his hands while making his way through the crowd, while another captured the tight end singing and dancing along to Swift’s song “Blank Space.”
Meanwhile, another clip posted to X shows Swift running into Kelce’s arms after the show and kissing him.
Jason Kelce’s Bye Week Wasn’t Bad, Either Kelce’s romance with Swift has been the talk of the NFL over the first half of the season. That was no different during the Chiefs’ Week 10 bye. However, Travis’ older brother, Jason Kelce, didn’t exactly have a bad bye week, either.
The Eagles center was a guest in the booth during this week’s Thursday Night Football matchup between the Carolina Panthers and Chicago Bears. Jason took questions from Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit about everything from a looming retirement decision to Philadelphia’s 8-1 start to the year. And of course, he covered being named one of People’s Sexiest Men Alive.
Jason made some other stops during his time in Chicago, including at The Wieners Circle. The six-time Pro Bowler was greeted at the hot dog eatery, with a sign that read “Welcome Taylor’s boyfriend’s brother.”
The Kelce brothers will face off after their respective bye weeks. The Chiefs (7-2) host the Eagles (8-1) in Week 11 in a rematch of last season’s Super Bowl. The game will get the primetime, Monday Night Football treatment on ESPN.
And maybe a certain pop star will be in attendance.
