If Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid ever calls on Taylor Swift to design plays, the pop sensation will be "Ready For It."
Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes revealed in a recent interview with NBC that Swift has been creating plays for the team.
"She’s really interested in football and she asks a lot of great questions," Mahomes told NBC’s Chris Simms during a recent interview. "She’s already drawing up plays. We might have to put one in."
Swift has been dating Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce for about a year. One of the most popular people on Earth, Swift caused a surge in NFL TV viewership with her attendance at 13 Kansas City games last season, including the Chiefs’ Super Bowl 58 win. The superstar has also attracted scores of her fans to the sport, which Mahomes praised as a welcome change.
"I think it's been cool to see the girls and the women that have really embraced watching football," Mahomes said of Swift's influence. "I know being a girl dad, how cool it is for me to see like these little girls, these daughters, and how much they're loving to spend time with their dad, watching football. And then meeting Taylor, realizing how genuine and cool she is. I think that's been special to me because she's, like you said, the most famous person in the world. She could not be (genuine)."
