WNBA superstar Caitlin Clark joined Taylor Swift in the Arrowhead stands to cheer on Travis Kelce against the Detroit Lions.

On Sunday Night Football, Kelce’s Chiefs are taking on the Lions. The Chiefs are in desperate need of a win after losing to the Jacksonville Jaguars last week, and the high-flying Lions represent a fierce foe.

Cheering on Kelce was Swift, who got engaged to the tight end earlier this year. The artist has spent the week on a promotional tour for her new album, ‘The Life of a Showgirl’, as she jetted across the world for appearances on a number of talk shows - but she made time to support her beau.

In the first half of the game, NBC Sunday Night Football cameras cut to the suite and showed Swift joyfully embracing her future father-in-law, Ed, in what is her first notable appearance at the Chiefs in the 2025 NFL season. According to PEOPLE, Swift was in attendance when the Chiefs hosted the Baltimore Ravens and for the clash with the Philadelphia Eagles at Arrowhead, but she wasn't seen on the broadcast.

Clark is a long-time Chiefs fan - and it's not the first time that Clark, whose 2025 season was derailed by injury, has joined Swift. The Indiana Fever star guard attended the AFC Divisional Playoff game between the Chiefs and the Houston Texans back in January, sitting alongside Swift.

Clark recently received a seal of approval from the Kelce family as Jason Kelce’s wife Kylie admitted she was a huge fan of her game. She also praised Clark’s loyalty following her recent showing at the Indianapolis Colts.

The ex-Iowa star seemingly politely declined to wear a custom Colts jersey during a pregame ceremony at Lucas Oil Stadium.

The Colts played against the Las Vegas Raiders and won 40-6 to advance to 4-1, and before the game started, the organization invited Clark, Aari McDonald, Makayla Timpson, and Natasha Howard onto the field to celebrate the Fever's journey to the 2025 WNBA semifinals.

Each player received a personalized Colts jersey with their WNBA number stitched on the back, with Clark getting her famous No. 22 jersey number. McDonald and Timpson wore their jerseys immediately for photos, while Clark smiled, held hers up, but kept it off.

The moment caught Kylie's attention, who praised Clark's decision on the latest episode of her "Not Gonna Lie" podcast.

"Speaking of the WNBA, I've just been given yet another reason to be a fan of Caitlin Clark," Kylie said. "Here's the deal. Very kind of the Colts organization to give a customized jersey. This is customary. I’ve seen it happen to my husband many times.

"I co-signed this decision very hard. I think that Caitlin nailed this. I think that when you are raised a diehard fan of a team, this is the only appropriate response to being given a jersey of another team."
