Roger Goodell pushes back on claims NFL scripted Super Bowl 58 for Taylor Swift sideshow
LAS VEGAS — Roger Goodell won’t accept the award for Best Screenplay.
Because the NFL commissioner — nor anybody else in the league office, Goodell said — possess the creative chops to script a storyline as lucrative for the league as Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce dating pop star Taylor Swift all the way to the Chiefs’ date with the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl 58.
“I don’t think I’m that good a scripter, or anybody on our staff,” Goodell said Monday in his annual pre-Super Bowl news conference. “Listen, there’s no way I could have scripted that one. Let’s just put it that way.”
Goodell pushed back against the more nefarious claims that the league played a hand in securing Chiefs victories so the sideshow of Kelce and Swift could continue through the season’s final game.
