An NFL player poll conducted by The Athletic revealed the true feelings of players around the league about Taylor Swift’s presence.
A majority of NFL players polled see the press coverage of Taylor Swift’s relationship with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce as positive for the league.
According to The Athletic’s Mike Jones, 74 of 102 players who answered the question described the attention surrounding her attendance at games as positive. Five were ranked as negative, and 23 gave neutral responses.
Positive – 72.5%
Negative 4.9%
Neither 22.5 %
One player told The Athletic: “I think it’s been positive for the league. I think that at the end of the day, it’s a business, and you need to get as many eyes on it as possible. And she brings a lot of eyes, so, you know, if that increases the salary cap, I don’t think anybody’s gonna be too mad about that one.”
Another player countered, “I feel like she is getting unnecessary coverage. There was the whole NFL opening season video on Twitter, and she was featured five times, and our quarterback was featured none. That’s not even right. She is not the NFL.”
The NFL loves her so much that they pushed its broadcasting network partners to promote Swift’s movie, “Taylor Swift: The Era Tours,” during the 2023 season.

The players’ overwhelmingly positive vibe about Taylor Swift is much different from how fans react to her online, as there are always constant reactions of negativity about her being shown during broadcasts.
Taylor Swift Has Been Absent During The Past Two Weeks
Taylor Swift’s attendance at NFL games drew major attention and often resulted in increased interest in the NFL and viewership boosts.
Front Office Sports’ Margaret Fleming reported earlier this year that Swift generated an estimated brand value equivalent of $331.5 million for the Chiefs during the 2023 season.
Swift attended the Chiefs’ first two home games this season. However, she was not present to watch Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and the team when they played the Atlanta Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium and the game against the Los Angeles Chargers at SoFi Stadium.
It remains to be seen if she plans to return during Week Five at Arrowhead Stadium, when the team plays the Saints on Monday Night Football.
New Report Reveals The Troubling Concern That’s Caused Taylor Swift To Stay Away From Kansas City Chiefs Games For The Past Couple Weeks

Taylor Swift has no-showed Travis Kelce’s last two appearances for the Kansas City Chiefs.
The defending Super Bowl champions aren’t worse for it as they have won both games, taking their record to 4-0 with a win over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday despite losing Rashee Rice to a serious knee injury early in the game.
Still, some fans are still worried that something might be up.
Page Six reports that security concerns were among the factors that led Taylor to decide not to travel to L.A. to support Kelce over the weekend.
She also decided against traveling to Atlanta for the Week 3 fixture against the Falcons.
According to said publication, Swift is comfortable attending games at Arrowhead Stadium but is hesitant to show up at other venues.

“If she is going to a place that isn’t Arrowhead, there are security concerns,” they write, citing a source. “She has worked with Arrowhead so many times, they feel at ease and comfortable. Going to all kinds of different stadiums, you need to send a team in advance.”
Taylor Swift Is Likely Being Extra Cautious Lately
Taylor Swift may still be spooked after an ISIS terror plot forced her to cancel parts of her tour in Vienna, Austria. Authorities received intelligence that allowed them to ensure her safety, but it would be natural for her to remain wary.
The outlet notes that the recent terror plot did factor into Taylor choosing not to travel as much, but she has joined the Chiefs on the road before, making notable appearances in New Jersey, Green Bay, New England, Buffalo, and Baltimore last season.
She was also present when the AFC team won a second successive Super Bowl at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas this February.
In any case, it would be unreasonable to expect the pop star to attend every single Chiefs game. She has her own thing going on.
