Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift were seen together at the US Open on September 8, enjoying the match between Jannik Sinner and Taylor Fritz. However, fans noticed Kelce seemed to be distracted, with his phone propped up against a glass, leading many to speculate he was watching a football game, specifically the Bengals vs. Patriots matchup occurring that day. With the Kansas City Chiefs set to play the Bengals soon, Kelce's interest in the game was seen as a strategic move to keep an eye on the competition. Social media users shared their theories, with some humorously commenting on Kelce's focus during the event. The couple's affectionate display, alongside friends Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, contrasted with the speculation about Kelce's attention to his phone. Despite the controversy, many fans understood the duality of enjoying sports while attending a live event.
