Many football fans seem to be getting a little upset about cameras often panning to Taylor Swift in the crowd when she is at a game to watch her boyfriend, Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs. A couple of things here. One, there are bigger worries in life than having to see Swift watching a football game. Secondly, Taylor Swift doesn't control the cameras so if you are upset, blame the broadcaster, not Swift.

But even Taylor Swift could not match the magic of Jason Kelce, Travis's brother, on Sunday before and during the Kansas City Chiefs defeat of the Buffalo Bills in the divisional round of the NFL playoffs. While Swift was her normal and natural effervescent self, Jason decided to become one of the people and mingle. This included crashing a Buffalo Bills fan's tailgate and Kelce took a big drink of something and everyone around him cheered.

During the game, Jason Kelce could be seen at different spots in the stadium, once even lifting a child up so that they could catch a glimpse of Swift. Jason also decided to take his shirt off and go shirtless for quite a long time in the sub-freezing temperatures. He was also shirtless for some time in the same box as Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes' wife.

Jason, of course, recently made news after his Philadelphia Eagles crashed out of the playoffs to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and appeared to hint that he is about to retire. Maybe he was just being emotional after a long season and a tough loss. Or maybe Jason and Taylor Swift can form some kind of duo where they go to not only the Chiefs' games but visit every stadium of every team in the NFL.

OH, wait. Then we would have a double issue. Not only would some fans keep directing their hate at Taylor Swift as she is sitting innocently in the stadium, but Jason Kelce would get some hate then too. Such a sad world we live in sometimes.
