The Kansas City Chiefs are riding the Swelce wave all the way to the playoffs.
The NFL team appear to be leveraging their tight end Travis Kelce’s headline-making romance with Taylor Swift to amp up the excitement for the postseason, and they’re doing it in style.
A fresh promo video dropped on the Chiefs' Instagram, featuring a narrator spinning a tale of the team's past Super Bowl victories and the hopeful anticipation of future triumphs.
“The regular season is over and we’ve had a great year / Happy post season, Chiefs kingdom, the playoffs are here / It might not be a holiday but we’ll treat it like like one / Three Super Bowls to our name and the fun’s just begun,” declared the narrator over a clip of the Chiefs’ highlights of 2023.
Kelce, 34, then takes centre stage in the video, scoring a touchdown as the narrator cleverly weaves in references to one of Swift’s classic hits – Love Story – which she herself has described as “the most romantic song I’ve written.”
“Valentine’s Day is jealous of the ‘love story’ we have / Who could ever separate the end zone from Trav?” the narrator cheekily read.
