Travis Kelce Makes ‘SNL’ Cameo in NFL Sketch Poking Fun at Taylor Swift Coverage: Watch

Travis Kelce returned to Saturday Night Live for the season 49 premiere on Oct. 14 for a hilarious cameo in a sketch poking fun at the NFL’s coverage of his rumored relationship with Taylor Swift.

The “Fox NFL Sunday” skit features SNL cast members Kenan Thompson (playing Curt Menefee), Mikey Day (Howie Long), Molly Kearney (Terry Bradshaw), James Austin Johnson (Jimmy Johnson), Devon Walker (Michael Strahan) and host Pete Davidson parodying the NFL’s obsessive coverage of Swift attending Kansas City Chiefs games in recent weeks.

“Let’s get into the game and stop yapping about Taylor and her little boyfriend,” Thompson’s Menefee says, prompting a conversation from the other broadcasters about the rumored couple’s relationship status.

“Whatever it is, I want to say to Travis Kelce, from one Super Bowl champion to another, this is a way bigger deal than the Super Bowl. You cannot mess this up. This is very delicate!” Walker’s Strahan says, pounding his finger on the desk.

After more banter about Swift’s past boyfriends and her appearances at the games, the Chiefs tight end appears when Thompson’s Menefee demands to speak to “someone who actually wants to talk football.” The camera cuts to Kelce standing on the sidelines and responding, “Yes, please!” with a big smile on his face. Kelce previously hosted SNL in March 2023.

After Kelce’s surprise appearance, Swift made a cameo of her own to help introduce the evening’s musical guest, Ice Spice. “Once again, Ice Spice,” the pop superstar announced before flashing a mischievous smile and walking off the stage.

On Saturday evening, Kelce and Swift were photographed holding hands while heading to dinner at Nobu in New York City. Rumors of a romance between the pair have been swirling since Swift was seen sitting next to Kelce’s mother during the Chiefs-Bears game on Sept. 24.
