As you’ve probably heard by now, the Kansas City Chiefs suffered a humiliating defeat in Super Bowl LIX Sunday night.
And while the denizens of Chiefs Kingdom are surely still suffering this week, it’s possible that no spectator took the loss as hard as Taylor Swift.
As expected, Taylor was in attendance at New Orleans’ Caesars Superdome.
And the pop icon looked devastated as the Chiefs fell to the Philadelphia Eagles in a game that was essentially over before halftime.
For Taylor, of course, this was more than just a football game.
After all, multiple aspects of her life and her relationship with Travis Kelce were reportedly hanging in the balance before kickoff. And now, Swifties are wondering where the couple stands.
Did Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Get Engaged?
As Travis and the Chiefs attempted to make history with a third straight Super Bowl win, there were rumors that Kelce planned to celebrate by proposing to Taylor on the field.
Needless to say, that didn’t happen, as the only ones celebrating were Jalen Hurts and the Eagles.
We suppose it’s still possible that Travis proposed privately after the game. But it seems unlikely, as the festive atmosphere he was reportedly hoping for failed to materialize.
Will Travis Retire?
Another thing that was rumored to be hanging on the outcome of Sunday’s game was Travis’ decision regarding retirement.
The legendary tight end is 35, and insiders predicted that he would hang up his cleats if the Chiefs made history by becoming the first team to win three straight Super Bowls.
After all, such an achievement would be hard to top, and with thriving careers as an actor and podcast host, Travis wouldn’t be in danger of getting bored.
But Kelce didn’t make any announcements about the future of his career at last night’s postgame press conference.
Instead, he graciously accepted his team’s defeat.
“We haven’t played that bad all year,” Kelce told reporters (per USA Today).
“Hats off to the Eagles, they got after us, all three phases. Couldn’t get it going offensively. Turnovers, penalties, playing behind the sticks on offense. Dropped passes, not taking advantage of the play calls and executing.”
We’re sure Travis intends to make some big decisions during this offseason. But for now, he seems focused on licking his wounds.
