Micah Parsons discloses why Travis Kelce is performing even better when ‘bad girl’ Taylor Swift is in attendance for Chiefs’ games

Micah Parsons talked about Kelce-Swift relationship on his “The Edge” podcast.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and the pop-music icon Taylor Swift have been making headlines for quite a while now. They have been the talk of the town ever since the 12-time Grammy Award-winner started attending the Chiefs games to support Kelce.

Furthermore, after Swift started attending games Kelce has been putting up massive numbers in the game. And now, the Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons has a theory as to why the All-Pro tight end is performing even better when Swift is in attendance.

During a recent episode of Bleacher Report’s “The Edge” podcast, the 2-time All-Pro linebacker Micah Parsons discussed the Kelce-Swift relationship and talked about how Kelce is performing better ever since he started dating the “Love Story” singer.

I saw a stat that Travis Kelce plays better when Taylor Swift is in attendance. Travis Kelce’s my boy, the best tight end in the league for like the past three, four years, so it’s obviously not Taylor Swift. But I’m gonna tell you all one thing. When there’s a bad girl and she’s in attendance and she’s watching you, that gives you an extra boost of confidence.

Furthermore, the 2-time Pro Bowl linebacker acknowledged that Kelce has been doing this for a long time. Still, Parsons believes Swift has given him more swagger and confidence which shows in his performance.

You know what Kelce's doing. I know what's going on. He was already doing it, so now it's like 'Yeah, I'm gonna do it more now.' Like it's a swagger. It's a confidence when these things happen. Y'all know how it goes.

Is it true Travis Kelce is performing better when Taylor Swift is in attendance?

The Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons dedicated a segment to talk about how Travis Kelce is performing better when Taylor Swift is in attendance. The discussion came after ESPN posted Kelce’s stats with and without Swift in attendance.

Kelce’s stats with his alleged beau in attendance were better than his stats without her in attendance. So, is Swift’s presence affecting the Chiefs tight end’s performance in a good way? Maybe or maybe not.

Most of Travis Kelce’s stats without Swift in attendance were at the early stages of this ongoing season when the All-Pro tight end was playing through a leg injury. Meaning, he played at a limited ability in those games.

But now, he’s fully healthy and is performing better. Still, Kelce’s huge 179 receiving yards performance against the Los Angeles Chargers might indicate that he is indeed playing with more ‘swagger’ and ‘confidence’ when his rumored girlfriend is watching him from the stands.
