Travis Kelce‘s wildest dreams came true on Sunday as the Kansas City tight end was able to snag a touchdown in front of 12-time Grammy Award winner Taylor Swift in Arrowhead Stadium. Already delivering a cruel end to the Bears’ summer leading 34-0, Patrick Mahomes found Kelce in the back of the endzone on 3rd and goal for a score, putting the Chiefs up 41-0 in the middle of the third quarter.

Cameras caught Swift, who joined Kelce’s mom Donna in a suite at Arrowhead, wildly celebrating the touchdown grab, even screaming Tom Brady‘s trademark phrase: “Let’s F***ing Go!”

Before finally finding the endzone, Kelce pulled in six more receptions, including a one-handed grab. The tight end missed Week 1 action after suffering a knee sprain leading into the season opener. He had four catches in Week 2 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, tallying 26 yards and a touchdown.

Kelce went on the Pat McAfee Show on Thursday and hinted that the music star would pop up for a Chiefs game at some point after his brother, Jason Kelce, jokingly confirmed that the two are hanging out.

“Nah, I mean it’s like, I threw it out there. I threw the ball in her court. I told her, ‘I’ve seen you rock the stadium in Arrowhead. You might have to come see me rock the stadium in Arrowhead and see which one is a little more lit.’ So we’ll see what happens in the near future,” Kelce said, referencing his attempt to give Swift his phone number after a concert at Arrowhead Stadium over the summer.

In Kansas City’s victory over Jacksonville last week, commentators were quick to incorporate Swift-inspired puns into their calls.

Jason Kelce spills beans on Travis-Taylor rumors

Jason Kelce fanned the flames of the rumors during a number of interviews last week. Travis went on to poke fun at his brother for his attention-seeking behavior.

“He’s had a whole lot of fun since then and he’s still having fun and then not even a week later tell everybody that it’s 100% true. I mean, the guy is absolutely ridiculous,” Kelce said, grinning. “He can’t stay out of the freaking headlines. He was on the show yesterday saying — not that he wants to be but the fact that everyone thinks he’s Ian Rapoport of my dating relationship. Please everyone stop asking my brother about my dating life.”
