The Kansas City Chiefs are laying down the law with three strict rules that affect Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift.

Over the 12 months, Kelce’s profile has skyrocketed to meteoric levels amid his relationship with pop star Swift as well as his popular ‘New Heights’ podcast with brother – and Philadelphia Eagles legend – Jason. The 35-year-old even appeared on stage during Swift’s ‘Eras Tour’ concert at Wembley Stadium during the offseason, to the acclaim of her legion of fans.

Kelce and Swift went public with their whirlwind relationship back in September 2023, when she attended the win over the Chicago Bears at Arrowhead. She supported him throughout the season, all the way to the Chiefs hoisting the Lombardi Trophy for the second successive year after their Super Bowl LVIII triumph.

The duo represent one of the most high-profile couples in the world, and Swift’s pregame entrances always draw eyes. However, both Kelce and Swift are not exempt for the rules the Chiefs have implemented leading up to gameday.

Chiefs receiver Mecole Hardman’s fiancee Chariah Gordon recently told People.com that there are eight rules the team has for all of its players to follow, but there are three in particular that apply to relationships. This affects Kelce and Swift.

Rule one is an 11 p.m. curfew for all players the night before – with no exceptions. The NFL CBA states that players can be disciplined by teams for curfew violations, which fall under “conduct detrimental to the team.”

The second rule is that all significant others, including wives, must stay in separate rooms the night before games. While they are allowed to stay in the same hotel, players have to sleep solo and the Chiefs are particularly strict about making sure this rule is adhered to.

The third and final rule is that all players must get directly onto the team plane after road games with no significant others allowed to tag along. This is to maximize team chemistry, with safety Bryan Cook’s wife Jayla Thornton-Cook telling People: “You’re more than welcome to go to a game and you can see them after, and then they’re getting right back on the flight and they’re coming right back home that night.”

Swift has only attended home games in the 2024 season, so the last rule is not an issue for the pop icon. She only attends contests at Arrowhead over security concerns on the road given several issues with her “Eras Tour” shows in Austria and Germany over the summer.

The 9-1 Chiefs are on the road against the 3-7 Carolina Panthers in their next game on Sunday, Nov. 24.
