In the newly released trailer for The End of an Era docuseries, fans spotted Chiefs superfan Taylor Swift casually rocking an Eagles sweatshirt backstage.
Yes, Taylor Swift, the same Taylor Swift who now shows up to games cheering loudly for her boyfriend Travis Kelce, was seen in full Philly mode while greeting her tour dancers, presumably meeting them for the first time.
The moment happens in a behind-the-scenes scene where Taylor Swift warmly shakes hands with each dancer, her Eagles merch standing out in the room. And honestly, there’s something beautifully full-circle about it.
Taylor Swift begins her tour wearing Eagles gear, then ends it draped in Chiefs colors thanks to Travis Kelce. It’s the kind of subtle storytelling Swifties love: a wardrobe that narrates her eras as much as her music.
Why was Taylor Swift Wearing The Merch?
The Eagles sweatshirt in the trailer wasn’t some random styling choice, but a nod to who Taylor Swift has always been long before she became the most recognizable Chiefs supporter on the planet.
Taylor grew up in West Reading, Pennsylvania, proudly claiming Philadelphia as her hometown, and for years she cheered for the Eagles with the same passion she now shows for Travis Kelce and the Chiefs.
Her Philly roots run deep. She sang the national anthem at a 76ers game at just 11, then again years later at a Phillies World Series game. She even had a custom Eagles jersey made for performances before D’Andre Swift ever joined the team.
Her connection to the Eagles has always slipped into her art, too. In “Gold Rush,” she casually drops the line about an Eagles T-shirt hanging from the door, a lyric fans debated endlessly, wondering if she meant the football team or the band. Either way, the reference made sense because the Eagles were woven into her upbringing.
And let’s not forget her dad, Scott Swift, a lifelong Eagles diehard. He passed down the fandom, until things started to shift.
At Taylor’s Buenos Aires show in November 2023, Scott was spotted wearing a Chiefs lanyard beside Travis Kelce in the VIP tent. It was the quietest, funniest sign that even the Swift family was slowly converting, one Kelce smile at a time.
Taylor Swift’s Transition To Becoming A Chiefs Fan
Taylor’s shift from lifelong Eagles supporter to fully invested Chiefs fan didn’t happen overnight, but unfolded naturally once Travis Kelce entered the picture.
Her fandom officially took off in September 2023, when she made her first appearance at Arrowhead Stadium.
That single moment confirmed what the internet had been whispering for weeks: she and Kelce were together.
From there, the transformation was impossible to miss. She kept showing up. Week after week, Taylor was in the suites beside Donna and Ed Kelce, celebrating touchdowns, nervously pacing through close games, and hugging Travis after wins.
Her presence wasn’t just a celebrity cameo. It became a steady part of the Chiefs’ season. Cameras caught her learning plays, reacting to penalties, and chatting with fans like she’d been part of the community for years.
What surprised people most was how quickly her interest deepened. Travis even shared that she was asking about draft picks, especially Xavier Worthy, and keeping up with player stories. It wasn’t performative; it was genuine curiosity and connection.
Taylor wasn’t simply supporting her boyfriend. She was embracing the culture, the team, and the energy of a franchise that welcomed her with open arms.
And if the Eagles sweatshirt in the docuseries marks where her story began, the Chiefs red she wears now shows exactly where her heart, and her Sundays, have landed.
