Taylor Swift didn't attend the Kansas City Chiefs' Week 3 game against the Atlanta Falcons, breaking her streak of attending the team's first two games.
Swift had been at the Chiefs' first two games, both victories at Arrowhead Stadium, and was in a suite for both games, cheering on Travis Kelce and the team.
Swift had attended a Chiefs road game last season against the New York Jets, but the circumstances were different, and she also followed the team's Super Bowl run.
Swift's absence was noticeable, as the usual pomp and circumstance of her entering Mercedes-Benz Stadium didn't occur before kickoff, leaving fans wondering why she wasn't there.
Kelce has struggled to get going in the offense, with only four catches for 39 yards through two games, leading to criticism from ESPN's Stephen A. Smith.
Smith criticized Kelce, saying he saw more of Taylor Swift than Kelce on the field, implying Kelce should be more visible in the offense.
Kelce's performance has been underwhelming, leading to concerns about his role in the Chiefs' offense and whether he can bounce back.
The Chiefs were on the road for the first time this season, which may have contributed to Swift's absence, as she may not have been able to attend the game.
Swift may have had prior commitments or scheduling conflicts that prevented her from attending the game, leaving fans to speculate about her absence.
