Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift Romance Inspires Sportsbooks: Prop Bets On Song, Couple Nickname, When Relationship Will End, And More

Bettors have been able to bet on the number of catches and receiving yards for Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce for the 2023 NFL season.

A rumored romance with pop star Taylor Swift gives bettors more prop bets to consider.

What Happened: When Swift attended last week’s Kansas City Chiefs matchups with the Chicago Bears, Fox Corporation FOX reported 24.3 million viewers and a spike in viewership among women, making it the most watched broadcast of the week on any network. Comcast Corporation CMCSA could cash in with its Sunday Night Football rights and the airing of the Chiefs game against the New York Jets.

As Benzinga previously reported, bettors who backed Kelce on his player props of receptions, receiving yards and an anytime touchdown were rewarded with two of the bets cashing.

And with Swift rumored to be attending the Chiefs next game, sports bettors could also cash in with prop bets involving the "Midnights" singer and Kelce.

Relationship Bets: Some betting sites are placing odds on the potential romance involving Kelce and Swift, which has less to do with his on-the-field performance.
