Patrick Mahomes Hints at New Running Play Designed by Taylor Swift

Last year, Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce made headlines worldwide when he went public with his relationship with pop megastar Taylor Swift.

Swift and Kelce quickly became a hot topic, and Kelce has consistently showered her with praise. Interestingly, Kelce’s quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, shares similar sentiments about the music icon.

In a recent interview discussing the upcoming season, Mahomes commented on Swift’s influence and their interactions.

“I think it’s been cool to see the girls and the women that have really embraced watching football,” Mahomes said of Swift, via NFL.com. “I know being a girl dad, how cool it is for me to see like these little girls — these daughters — and how much they’re loving to spend time with their dad, watching football. And then meeting Taylor, realizing how genuine and cool she is. I think that’s been special to me because she’s, like you said, the most famous person in the world, she could not be (genuine).”

Mahomes wrapped up his comments with a surprising revelation.

“And she’s really interested in football, and she asks a lot of great questions. Started drawing up plays. We might have to put one in.”

According to Mahomes, Swift has even sketched out plays for the Chiefs’ offense. While it might sound far-fetched, it’s worth remembering that Mahomes is the quarterback known for his unconventional passes, including behind-the-back and no-look throws. Don’t be surprised if he actually tries one of Swift’s plays someday, much to the delight of her fans.

In the same interview, Mahomes discussed how he appreciates the growing interest in football among women, a trend that Swift has significantly influenced by her frequent appearances at Kansas City games.

When Mahomes mentions it, it signals that it’s a legitimate possibility.

However, not all football fans are thrilled about the attention Swift and Kelce are receiving, especially with the cameras often shifting to Swift during games. These detractors would likely be displeased if Swift directly influenced the Chiefs’ plays. But with Mahomes and coach Andy Reid’s tendency to innovate, anything is possible.

The increased attention Swift has brought to football, alongside her genuine interest in the sport, has added an intriguing subplot to the Kansas City Chiefs’ season. Watching whether any of her suggested plays make it to the field will be something to keep an eye on.
