Taylor Swift sits with Caitlin Clark during Chiefs-Texans
The Kansas City Chiefs and Houston Texans are locked into a close game in the opening matchup of the NFL divisional round playoffs. The host Chiefs are back in action after a first-round bye to open the playoffs.
Chiefs fan Taylor Swift is in attendance for Saturday’s game with her parents, Scott and Andrea Swift. She took her spot in the one of the suites where she usually watches Chiefs games and was joined by a surprise guest: Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark.
Eagle-eyed viewers may have seen photos of the Fever star in Swift’s suite early on in the game.
During the third quarter, the broadcast cut to Swift and Clark sitting next to each other and taking in the action.
Clark is a fan of both the Chiefs and Swift. She met with Swift during the pop star’s stops in Indianapolis back in November.

Since she started dating Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce during the 2023 NFL season, Swift has frequently attended Chiefs games, especially in the playoffs. She shared a suite with actress Blake Lively during Super Bowl 58 and has become part of nationally-televised Chiefs games.
Is Caitlin Clark a Chiefs fan?
Yes. The Fever guard and Des Moines, Iowa native said on an episode of the ‘New Heights’ podcast with Travis and Jason Kelce that she’s been a lifelong Chiefs fan.
‘I had family in Kansas City, and I grew up in Des Moines, Iowa, which is only three hours from Kansas City,’ Clark said on the show. ‘That’s just the closest NFL team.’
The fandom in her family included admiration for another legendary Kansas City tight end.
‘My brother loved Tony Gonzalez,’ she said. ‘We would, like, go to one game a year growing up because my cousin was down in Kansas City.’
