NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell is fully on board with the idea of Grammy Award-winning singer Taylor Swift joining a team ownership group.

Taylor Swift has been in a highly publicized relationship with Kansas City Chiefs superstar tight end Travis Kelce for over a year. Swift attended 13 Chiefs games in 2023, including their Super Bowl 58 victory over the San Francisco 49ers, and made it to three of their first five games this season.

Swift’s romance with Swift has naturally led to speculation that she may want to add “NFL owner” to her resume. She has a net worth of over $1 billion, and Kelce’s connections across the league could only help her chances of securing a stake in an NFL club.

Per Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer, the commissioner was asked if Taylor Swift has been approached about following Tom Brady’s footsteps into the world of NFL ownership (Brady is now officially a minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders). And Goodell made it clear that he supports the idea if she’s keen on it.

“If she’s interested, I think she has the ability to do it,” Goodell said.

Brady isn’t the only notable celebrity who has a stake in a professional sports franchise. Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James is a part owner of the Boston Red Sox and Liverpool FC.

Will Smith and actor Jada Pinkett Smith also have stakes in his hometown team, the NBA’s Philadelphia 76ers. Former controversial MLB star Alex Rodriguez is also part of the Minnesota Timberwolves’ ownership group.

Regarding current pro athletes? Aaron Rodgers has a stake in the NBA’s Milwaukee Bucks, and Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes is part owner of the Kansas City Royals and Sporting Kansas City.

Taylor Swift Has The Money To Do So

Swift certainly wouldn’t want to spend all of her money on becoming the full owner of one NFL franchise, but the legendary music artist has the cash and resources to purchase a minority stake if she wants to do so. If her and Kelce stay together, who knows? Maybe Clark Hunt would sell part of the Chiefs ownership stake to the singer who helped bring even more publicity and global following to his franchise.

Travis Kelce Used One Word To Describe His Whirlwind Relationship With Taylor Swift

Travis Kelce is proud to have girlfriend Taylor Swift by his side, and he doesn’t mind that the whole world is watching.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been dating since at least September 2023 when she shocked everybody by showing up to Arrowhead Stadium. The move came months after Kelce first publicly expressed interest in Swift, after attending one of her concerts and failing to send a friendship bracelet to her with his number on it.

Travis Kelce knows just how obsessed the world is with his relationship.

“I’m very aware,” Kelce said when asked whether he understands the “impact” his romance with Taylor Swift was having on the NFL.

“Obviously, this is mostly because Taylor’s in my life now and we got her [to be] part of Chiefs Kingdom,” he explained in a resurfaced interview with sports reporter Laura Okmin ahead of the Super Bowl.

“And sure enough, that brought an entire entourage of human beings who just love to support her and love to support everything that she’s about.”

He used an incredible word to describe their relationship.

“With that being said, I do, you know, have a guarded approach to it,” he explained before Super Bowl 58. “But at the same time, I know what me and Taylor have is special, so I get [the interest].”

Taylor Swift was spotted at 13 of Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs football games this past season, first popping up in a box at Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri on Sept. 24, 2023. The team won 10 of the 13 games at which she’s been in attendance.

That also included the team winning playoff games over the Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills, Baltimore Ravens, and then the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl.

Kelce finished the Super Bowl with nine receptions for 93 yards, including a crucial catch in overtime.

The 34-year-old slowed down slightly in 2023, finishing with 93 catches for 984 yards and five touchdowns. It should be noted he did miss two games, Week 1 due to injury and Week 17 as he chose to sit out with the Chiefs not playing for anything.
