The NFL is filled with crazy storylines, many of which are unexpected. So much so that Taylor Swift has had an effect on a team entirely unrelated to the Chiefs, and Ben Sinnott is seemingly benefitting from it.

Ben Sinnott was drafted in the 2024 NFL Draft by the Washington Commanders with their second-round pick. It was initially acquired via trade from the Philidelphia Eagles and became the number 53 overall draft pick.

Sinnott has been having a quiet season thus far for the Washington Commanders, and the team is benefiting from all aspects this season. Sinnott finally scored his first touchdown against the Carolina Panthers in week seven, but it was the name of the play that was called that caught fans’ attention.

Commanders’ offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury, who was the head coach of the Arizona Cardinals before joining Washington, claimed that the name of the play on which Sinnott scored was “Taylor Swift.”

Ben Sinnott’s First Touchdown Was On A Play Called “Taylor Swift”

The play in question saw Commanders’ backup signal-caller Marcus Mariota, who the team signed this off-season as a mentor for rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, throw a quick pass to Ben Sinnott, who was open short in the flats, leading the team to score a touchdown.

Not only was it Sinnot’s first career touchdown in the NFL, but it was also his first career catch, and odds are that Sinnott will be a Swifty for life after this one. Kingsbury also hilariously has a play called “Kelce.”

The Commanders are set to play the Chicago Bears in week eight, and the question remains whether we will see Kingsbury break out the play “Kelce.” It would solidify Sinnott’s Tayvis following for life!
