The social media accounts for NBC’s “Sunday Night Football” were ready for the reaction from NFL fans when they made a post about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce on Friday.
The caption provided a perfect response to anyone who questioned the reason they would make a graphic to honor the end of Swift’s Eras Tour.
“Karma is the numbers on the screen,” it said, displaying Kelce’s stats since the Eras Tour began on March 17, 2023.
The final night of the singer’s record-breaking tour coincides with the date that her boyfriend’s Kansas City Chiefs take on the Los Angeles Chargers on NBC’s marquee Sunday night program.

“Take this down now,” growled a popular comment on the post on Instagram.
“Delete this post,” echoed another response, which gained more than 100 likes in less than an hour.
The graphic included the impressive stats both stars racked up since the Eras Tour started. Since the start of the 2023 season, Kelce’s 168 catches are the most of any NFL tight end, resulting in 1,671 receiving yards and a Super Bowl LVIII ring.
The side-by-side comparison with Swift’s numbers showed that the “Midnights” artist sold more than 11 million tickets to her 152 shows on five continents, generating upwards of $2 billion in ticket sales.
“It’s hilarious how NBC made this post thinking people wouldn’t be mad,” a fan mused on Instagram.
“Hope you’re aware this post makes it look more probable that games are being fixed in the chiefs favor to benefit the viewership gain from Swifties,” ranted a comment.
Swift’s final show takes place on Sunday night in Vancouver, which will prevent her from attending the Chiefs’ AFC West divisional showdown on “Sunday Night Football” against the Chargers at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.
She has attended six of Kelce’s games this season — all in Kansas City — and the Chiefs are 6-0 in those contests.
On the other end of the spectrum, some of Swift’s fans were upset that Kelce would not be free to attend the final night of the tour. Kelce made 14 appearances at her shows during the course of the tour.
Overall, they were excited to see SNF give a nod to Swift and Kelce’s relationship on the public platform.
“Love cheering for them both!” a user replied under the graphic on X. “It’s awesome seeing people excel at their jobs and use their talents, and it’s been so cool to see them support each other.”
