Travis Kelce has arrived at Allegiant Stadium to take on Las Vegas Raiders, the last team to beat the Kansas City Chiefs.
It comes as his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, performs her third and final show of the weekend in New Orleans on the final leg of Eras Tour.
Kelce has yet to score a touchdown for the Chiefs so far this season but his team head into today’s game with an unbeaten 6-0 record, in pursuit of an historic third straight Super Bowl title.
The Raiders beat the Chiefs at Arrowhead on Christmas Day last season. It was disastrous performance from Kansas City – Kelce even slammed his helmet to the floor in fury at one stage – but it sparked a resurgence in Andy Reid’s team that took them to Super Bowl glory.
The Chiefs have not lost since that day but Kelce is not growing complacent.

Last week, when the Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers in a rematch of last season’s Super Bowl, Kelce immediately sent a warning to his teammates as attention turned to the Raiders.
‘I think we found out last year that if we don’t have the right mindset going into this game, this team can beat us,’ Kelce said.
‘That’s every team in the NFL but this rivalry in the AFC West division, that’s always a big game – no matter who we are playing in the division. The Raiders, that is always a tough opponent.
‘It’s about us, it’s about us getting better throughout the year,’ Kelce said. ‘The message (for the 49ers game) was to go out there and play together.
‘There are a lot of doubters with what we can do offensively right now with the guys that we’ve got. We showed everyone we can put up points today.
‘I love every single guy on this team. That’s our mentality – next guy up. Everybody feels their role, they want that opportunity to get out there and show the world that we’ve got everybody we need right here to win a championship.’
