The Chiefs defeated Las Vegas 30-27 in the Week 4 matchup, improving to 4-0 while the Raiders dropped to 3-1. Kelce himself had a relatively quiet night statistically, finishing with two catches for 15 yards and no touchdown. There was one small problem with the Raiders fan’s trolling strategy: Kansas City still walked away with the win.
A touchdown is worth six points, making “6s on the field” an easy reference to Kelce’s job as one of the NFL’s most recognizable tight ends. The “3s off the field” part, however, was clearly aimed at his superstar romance with Swift. If there is one thing NFL fans love almost as much as touchdowns, it is finding a creative new way to roast an opposing team. And one Las Vegas Raiders fan apparently decided that Travis Kelce ’s relationship with Taylor Swift was fair game. The joke is built around one of football’s simplest numbers. In other words, the fan was basically giving Kelce a very questionable scouting report on his married life. And considering this was a Raiders-Chiefs rivalry game, subtlety was never really going to be part of the game plan. Swift wasn’t even the one standing in the stadium, but somehow she still managed to make it onto a Raiders fan’s game-day sign.
