Taylor Swift‘s presence at Kansas City Chiefs games this season has been a hot topic, and it’s not just fans who are talking-legendary NFL star Marshall Faulk is giving her major props for how she’s handled herself. Swift, 35, has been a regular at Arrowhead Stadium this year, cheering on her boyfriend, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, during the team’s playoff run.
She was there for the Divisional Round win over the Houston Texans and the NFC Championship Game victory against the Buffalo Bills. Despite being one of the most famous people on the planet right now, Swift has managed to keep things low-key and supportive, something Faulk couldn’t help but praise.
During an appearance on The Rich Eisen Show, Faulk, a Hall of Fame running back and Super Bowl XXXIV champion, shared his thoughts on Swift’s impact. “You know, as much as we talk about Taylor Swift and the Kansas City Chiefs, she has not interrupted anything-any chemistry or anything with that team,” he said.

“It has not bothered [anyone]; nobody has said we don’t want her in the locker room or the family area, none of that. There are always issues with celebrities in these spaces, and I’m going to say that’s a testament to Taylor Swift and her team for just going with the flow, doing whatever is best for Travis Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs, and their organization.”
Faulk applauds Taylor Swift for ‘going with the flow’
Faulk’s comments highlight how seamlessly Swift has integrated herself into the Chiefs’ world. Unlike some past high-profile relationships in the NFL-like Tony Romo’s with Jessica Simpson and Carrie Underwood, which were criticized for being distractions-Swift’s presence has been nothing but positive.
The Chiefs are now heading to their third straight Super Bowl, proving that her support hasn’t thrown the team off its game.
The upcoming Super Bowl, set to kick off at 6 p.m. E.T. on Sunday, February 9, will air on FOX. Whether Swift will be in attendance remains to be seen, but one thing’s for sure: her time in Kansas City has been a win-win for everyone involved. As Faulk put it, she’s handled it all with grace, and that’s something worth celebrating.
