NFL fans fume at Taylor Swift-heavy Patrick Mahomes interview during Chiefs weather delay: ‘Talk football!’

Published

on

The Chiefs’ opening night win over the Ravens on Thursday was delayed by 20 minutes due to inclement weather, and NBC filled that time with a Taylor Swift-focused interview of Patrick Mahomes that infuriated some fans.

Mahomes spoke with NBC’s Chris Simms in a pre-recorded interview that ran 25 minutes, but the conversation was apparently edited to largely center around Swift – the girlfriend of Mahomes’ teammate Travis Kelce – and some supporters were none too pleased.

Sweet f*****g Jesus, why are we talking about Taylor Swift on an interview with Mahomes,’ one wrote on X. ‘I don’t give a damn about how cool it is that Travis is dating her. Talk football and only football!

‘It’s one thing to show her during the game sometimes, but for Taylor Swift to have her OWN segment in a Mahomes interview and have NBC advertise the Eras tour in between plays is f*****g crazy,’ another wrote.

‘She’s being pushed way more than a casual WAG of a player would it’s getting blatant.

And a different fan added, ‘Why are we discussing Taylor Swift in a Patrick Mahomes interview on Thursday night football, please ENOUGH.’

A full version of Mahomes and Simms’ conversation was posted to the NFL on NBC YouTube page last week, with Swift only being discussed in the last three minutes of the chat.

However, it appears NBC aired an edited segment of the interview on Thursday.

‘I think it’s been cool to see the girls and the women that have really embraced watching football. I know being a girl dad, how cool it is for me to see like these little girls – these daughters – and how much they love to spend time with their dad, watching football,’ Mahomes said in the video.

The passer also gushed about how ‘genuine and cool’ Swift was – and even her football chops.

‘She’s really interested in football, and she asks a lot of great questions. Started drawing up plays. We might have to put one in.’

Swift of course has become a major figure within Chiefs Kingdom and more broadly the NFL since beginning her relationship with Kelce last year.

And the pop star was in attendance on Thursday as the Chiefs opened the season with a 27-20 win over the Ravens.

Swift’s boyfriend Kelce had a rather quiet game as he caught three passes for 34 yards.

Nonetheless, the two-time defending Super Bowl champions hung on for the win after a late would-be touchdown by the Ravens’ Isaiah Likely was deemed out of bounds.

After watching the game alongside Travis’ family in a private suite, the couple was seen leaving Arrowhead Stadium hand-in-hand in the early hours of Friday morning.
