Taylor Swift Pays Tribute to Struggling Travis Kelce Despite the Chiefs TE Abandoning Girlfriend’s Miami Concert

38.89%. A shocking statistic that tells the tale of the Kansas City Chiefs' red zone woes. But today at Miami's Hard Rock Stadium, a different number took center stage – the three times Taylor Swift has now performed her boyfriend's signature archer pose during the Eras Tour, as reported by People.com.

The 14-time Grammy winner lit up Miami's opening night of her three-day concert series on October 18 with a meaningful tribute. Despite Travis Kelce's absence, Swift brought his spirit to life through his iconic archer pose during the show. TMZ captured the moment that sent the Hard Rock Stadium into a frenzy of cheers.

The gesture carries a deeper story. Back in June, Swift first recreated Kelce's bow-and-arrow move in Dublin. That night, she perfectly synced it with the lyrics "And he never thinks of me, except when I'm on TV," drawing thunderous applause from Irish fans. The Chiefs tight end later opened up about their connection on the Bussin' with the Boys podcast, ranking "So High School" as his third favorite Swift song "because it has a little bit of a sentimental meaning."

But while Swift dazzled Miami, faced his battles. Coach Andy Reid's October 17 press conference painted a stark picture of their offensive struggles. "The guy opposite [Travis] Kelce ends up being very important," Reid emphasized, addressing their plummeting red zone efficiency – from last year's 69.44% to this season's 29th-ranked 38.89%.

Patrick Mahomes didn't mince words either. "We have to go in with more good vs. all plays," the quarterback declared on October 16, grappling with an offense that's seen Kelce go touchdown-less at age 35. Yet the tight end has shown flashes of brilliance, snagging 16 catches for 159 yards in his last two outings.

Despite Kelce's absence in the Miami concert, Swift got the family support!

Star-studded support system steps up The Hard Rock Stadium turned into a family affair. While Travis prepared for Sunday's Super Bowl rematch against the , his support system showed up in force. TMZ spotted Jason Kelce, his wife Kyle, their daughters Wyatt & Elliotte, and mama Donna Kelce soaking in the show from a VIP section. Even NFL legend Tom Brady joined the star-studded crowd.

The timing speaks volumes. JuJu Smith-Schuster's limited Thursday practice with a hamstring issue, coupled with Michael Danna's absence and other mounting injuries, underscores why Travis prioritized team preparations. The Chiefs' promotion of Jody Fortson from the practice squad signals their desperate search for offensive answers.

Their relationship transcends these challenges. As a source revealed to People.com in June, "He is a gentleman... He has an amazing energy and approach to life. It all feels very special." This special bond shines through in Kelce's own words about Swift: "I really started listening to Taylor's music when she came out with 1989. Like I knew who she was before that, we were the same age."

The Miami concert marked Swift's return from a 9-month hiatus, proving that sometimes the most powerful displays of support come wrapped in subtle gestures – even when your biggest fan is busy preparing for a crucial NFL showdown.
