Taylor Swift pays tribute to Travis Kelce during the first touchdown of the NFL season

Did Taylor Swift subtly celebrate her husband Travis Kelce‘s first touchdown of the NFL season during her last Eras tour show?

Swifties noticed that the pop star, 34, appeared to channel Kelce by making his signature “first down” gesture during her concert on Sunday, October 27, at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans.

Swift struck Kelce’s celebratory pose and pointed her index fingers in the air as she sang “Midnight Rain.” The singer then kissed her three middle fingers and blew them in the air, which fans on social media used to indicate that there would be a possible Super Bowl three-peat for Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs in February. (The Chiefs have won back-to-back Super Bowls in 2023 and 2024, with Swift attending to look at her boyfriend during last February’s big win over the San Francisco 49ers.)

“Taylor Swift just delivered Kelce’s first down signal on stage and then capped it off with a 3-peat finger kiss send-off to manifest another Superbowl win like you just can’t make this stuff up,” a fan shared via X on Sunday.

“Taylor does Travis’ move when he gets the first down and kisses three fingers for a three-peat,” shared Swift fan account Taylor Swift Updates, alongside a side-by-side video composite of Kelce and Swift getting his first down take a pose.

Even Swift’s official

Fans of the singer think she manifested Kelce’s first touchdown of the NFL season during Sunday’s Chiefs game against the Las Vegas Raiders at Allegiant Stadium in Nevada.

On Saturday, October 26, Swift said the word ‘touchdown’ and gestured with a football pass during the second of her three shows in New Orleans.

“Travis Kelce got his first regular-season touchdown in thirteen games, just hours after Taylor Swift did so during her concert. THIS is Tayvoodoo,” one fan wrote via X on Sunday after Kelce’s big moment.

“The Chiefs just earned their 13th straight win and Travis Kelce scored his first touchdown in 13 regular season games. the TD drive was 13 plays, giving the Chiefs their 13th point… a few hours after Taylor screamed TOUCHDOWN at her concert!! shared the Taylor Swift Updates account.

Another fan wrote: “Taylor Swift has cast a spell on Travis Kelce.”

The Chiefs tight end caught a five-yard touchdown pass from Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes to score against the Raiders during Sunday’s game. Sunday was also National Tight Ends Day, and Kelce, 35, celebrated his touchdown by spiking the ball into the end zone.

Kelce caught the touchdown pass in the second quarter of the game. Before Sunday, he had gone 12 games in the regular season without throwing a touchdown pass. Not only was this Kelce’s first touchdown of the season, but it also gave the Chiefs a three-point lead over the Raiders. The Chiefs ultimately took home the win with a 27-20 win. Kelce finished his game on Sunday with 10 receptions and 90 yards.

According to the NFL, this score made Kelce the fifth tight end in NFL history with 75 receiving touchdowns. Kelce broke a tie with former Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten and is now firmly in fifth place for career touchdowns by a tight end.
