Taylor Swift wasted no time reacting to Kansas City Chiefs’ NFL Draft pick
Taylor Swift has reaffirmed her support for the Kansas City Chiefs by reacting to the team’s NFL Draft pick of speedy wide receiver Xavier Worthy from Texas
Taylor Swift has endorsed the Kansas City Chiefs’ NFL Draft 2024 first round pick, Xavier Worthy.
The Chiefs made a strategic move on Thursday, trading up from the 32nd to the 28th pick in a surprising deal with the Buffalo Bills. This was done to secure Worthy, a standout wide receiver from Texas who has been inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame for his record-breaking 4.21-second 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine.
The Chiefs gave up their third-round pick (95) but gained a compensatory selection in the fourth round (133) from the Bills, showing their commitment to evolving their offense.
Swift, who is dating Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, showed her approval of the draft pick by liking the team’s Instagram post featuring a photo of Worthy with his family as he awaited his selection. The caption celebrated the moment Worthy officially became a member of the team.

Before the NFL draft, Patrick Mahomes made no secret of his wish to have Xavier Worthy on the Kansas City Chiefs roster, blown away by the receiver’s lightning speed at the combine. Mahomes took to Twitter to express his awe at Worthy’s 40-yard dash, even issuing a correction to get the stats just right.
His tweet, “Sheesh, that’s crazy,” sent Chiefs fans into a frenzy, sparking further speculation about the potential acquisition of the Texas speedster, reports the Mirror US.
At the University of Texas, Worthy was nothing short of impressive, making full use of his blistering pace. Over 14 games, he snagged 75 catches for a whopping 1,014 yards and crossed into the end zone five times. In the Big 12, he was second in total yardage and fourth in average yards per game with 72.4.

Swift and Kelce kicked off their much-talked-about romance in the summer of 2023, after whispers of Kelce’s crush on the songstress – which apparently started when he attended one of her gigs with hopes of a date. His persistence paid off, merging the realms of pop culture and professional sports.
Swift became a fixture in the NFL scene last season, showing up at 13 of Kelce’s matches, marking her territory in the football world. She was there, cheering on Kelce and the Chiefs as they clinched Super Bowl LVIII in an edge-of-your-seat 25-22 overtime triumph over the San Francisco 49ers.
As the 2024 NFL Draft unfolds, Kansas City Chiefs still have a number of picks left for future selections. They hold a fifth-round pick at 159th overall, another fifth-round pick at 173rd overall, and a seventh-round pick at 248th overall. These picks provide the Chiefs with additional chances to strengthen their squad as they continue through the draft process.
