On Thursday night, the Kansas City Chiefs kicked off the 2024 NFL season by hosting the Baltimore Ravens, the team they defeated in last season’s AFC Championship Game, at Arrowhead Stadium.
That meant they got their Super Bowl rings from last season as they go for an unprecedented Super Bowl three-peat this season.
It also meant the return of pop superstar Taylor Swift, who continues to date Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce.
Access Hollywood captured the moment when Swift made her way into Arrowhead Stadium for Thursday’s contest.
The NFL is back, and so is Taylor Swift! 🤩

The 14-time Grammy winner made headlines last year when she hooked up with Kelce, and she quickly became a fixture at Chiefs games.
Television cameras would frequently show her during contests, which drew the ire of some fans who were sick of the attention she was getting.
The Chiefs, of course, overcame poor play from their wide receivers to win the Vince Lombardi Trophy by squeaking past the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LVIII.
Their wide receiver room looks improved this time around thanks to the additions of Marquise Brown and JuJu Smith-Schuster.
Smith-Schuster was a key member of their 2022 team, while Brown will give them another proven playmaker.
The wideout fans are most excited about is rookie Xavier Worthy, who ran the 40-yard dash in 4.21 seconds at the scouting combine, setting a record.
Worthy scored Kansas City’s first touchdown on Thursday on a 21-yard run off an end-around, and he could be the new Tyreek Hill for them moving forward.
