Caitlin Clark Shares What She and Taylor Swift Were Actually Whispering About at the Kansas City Chiefs Game

Caitlin Clark got to spend some quality time with Taylor Swift earlier this year, when fans spotte the pair chatting at an AFC playoff game in January. But what exactly were they talking about?

On an episode of the A Touch More podcast posted onMonday (July 21), the WNBA superstar revealed just that. When hosts Sue Bird and Megan Rapinoe pulled up a photo of the 14-time Grammy winner and Clark whispering together in their box suite at the Jan. 18 Kansas City Chiefs vs. Houston Texans match-up — playfully demanding that the Indiana Fever athlete divulge what they had been talking about — Clark shared that she had simply been “explaining” some football rules to Swift.

“Honestly, I love football, and I know a lot about football,” Clark began. “So I was, like, telling her why they threw a flag. In the best way, she doesn’t know a lot about [football] — I don’t even know everything, so I was just explaining things.”

“But yeah, that was really fun,” the point guard added. “I’m a big Chiefs fan, so getting to spend time with Taylor, and then also Travis [Kelce] played really well that game.”

Though Swift may not have entered the NFL world with much football knowledge, she’s certainly learned a lot from attending boyfriend Travis Kelce’s games ever since they started dating in 2023. Both the tight end and Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes have previously said that the performer has taken to drawing up her own plays, though Kelce admits that she’s “a little biased” and often centers them around him.

Swift and Clark’s gameday hangout had been a long time coming, with the pop star inviting the basketball player to accompany her on a Chiefs outing way back in November. In addition to several bags of Eras Tour merch, Clark says Swift also wrote a personalized note saying that she and “Trav” were hoping to attend one of her Fever games.

A couple of weeks prior to the Chiefs vs. Texans game, Clark gushed about the musician on Travis Kelce’s New Heights podcast. “It’s just a great show and a lot of fun,” she said of her Eras experience in Indianapolis. “My mom was begging me to take her. She’s like, ‘I gotta go, like, everybody’s talking about it.’ I’m like, ‘OK, OK’ … Full Swiftie, turned my mom into a full Swiftie now. Good time, good time.”
