Taylor Swift missed Travis Kelce’s Chiefs game against the Buffalo Bills over the weekend.
Swift, 34, was a no-show at the event, which took place at Buffalo’s Highmark Stadium on Sunday, November 17. It comes after the singer performed her third Eras Tour concert in Toronto the previous evening, and ahead of further shows in the city this week as her tour winds towards its final night in Vancouver on December 8.
The Chiefs were defeated by the Bills 30-21, with Kelce notching up two receptions for eight total yards during the game.
Swift is scheduled to be back at Toronto’s Rogers Centre on Thursday, November 21, as she kicks off three consecutive nights before the Eras Tour’s Vancouver dates commence at BC Place on December 6.

Meanwhile, Kelce, who began dating Swift in September 2023, and his teammates will play off against the Carolina Panthers in an away game on Monday, November 25, before rounding the year out against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Boxing Day.
The pair’s busy schedule has fans wondering whether or not Swift and Kelce will manage to spend Thanksgiving with one another. A source told Us Weekly in September that “Taylor and Travis are very committed and serious about their future,” and there have been several hints to suggest that they will indeed spend Turkey Day together.
Fans are also hoping to see the pair united to celebrate Swift’s 35th birthday on December 13, especially since her Eras Tour duties will have officially wrapped by then.
Swift has supported Kelce during a string of Chiefs games throughout the opening stage of the current NFL season. She most recently attended the Sunday, November 10, game against the Denver Broncos alongside her mom, Andrea, and dad, Scott.
The trio were spotted riding in a golf cart together before Swift stepped out to walk amid a crowd of photographers. Sparking concern from the event’s security guards, one member of staff told the crowd, “Guys, stay back, stay back,” per fan footage posted that evening.
The stern direction was noted by Swift, who politely corrected the security guard with the response, “Stay back, please.”

Swift themed her November 10 match day outfit to perfection, opting for a red tweed suit set from Versace and completing the ensemble with a Chief-inspired manicure, black corset top and jewelry by EFFY Jewelry and Retrouvai.
Kelce also seemed to have inspired Swift’s professional pursuits, with fans pointing out via social media right after Swift’s November 17 concert in Toronto that she appeared to nod to Kelce’s dancing skills. During an improvised section of “Midnight Rain,” Swift rotated her arms around each other before sticking her thumbs out to the side reminiscent of a Grease-style “Born to Hand Jive” move.
The dance, which occurred as Swift sang, “He never thinks of me / Except when I’m on TV,” appeared to replicate a similar move that Kelce is known for.
Back in June, Kelce attended Swift’s concert in London and was seen grooving in a similar fashion during her rendition of “Karma.”
