Rashee Rice, a rookie player for the Kansas City Chiefs, recently shared his thoughts on the positive impact that Taylor Swift’s relationship with teammate Travis Kelce has had on the team’s popularity among fans. Swift’s presence at NFL games has undoubtedly taken the fandom to another level.

Rice mentioned that Swift has been supportive of the team and has brought in more fans. He also shared that he has been around Swift during his downtime with Kelce and quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Although he didn’t seek a picture with her, he acknowledged that the players are the only ones who see their teammates as they truly are, rather than as superstar football players.

Rice’s performance has been impressive, with 68 catches for 754 yards and seven touchdowns through Week 15. His last touchdown in Sunday’s win over the New England Patriots set a new franchise record for the most receiving touchdowns by a rookie.

Kelce expressed his pride in Rice’s ability to handle the ups and downs of the season, especially considering his recent success. Rice has become one of Mahomes’ favorite targets, playing over 85% of snaps in the last two games.
