NFL Released A Very “Terrible” Statement On Promoting Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce Romance. Take A Look At The Whole Story
The NFL was exposed for overspreading the Swift-Kelce dating allegations, appearing to promote Swift’s work in order to get more fans, and essentially stoking the fires of this story.
The Swiftie industry may be promoted by publications, but it’s a problem when a professional league uses excessive celebrity attention to distract from its own product.
The NFL issued a feeble statement in defense of its reporting after facing criticism this week for yet another week of excessive Taylor promotion.
An increasing number of football fans are displeased with how the already well-liked league ignores the play on the field. After the Chiefs and Jets’ game in Week 4 against one another, the NFL made one of its most pitiful actions by updating its bio to mention Swift.

The horrible declaration from the NFL is as follows:
“The Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce news has been a pop cultural moment we’ve leaned into in real time, as it’s an intersection of sport and entertainment, and we’ve seen an incredible amount of positivity around the sport.
“The vast majority of our content has remained focused on the game, our players and variety of other initiatives.”
This Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce romance is certain to fail, as any reasonable football fan or magazine reader knows. The NFL will be held accountable for alienating its fans with its bubble-gum-pop broadcasts that prioritize celebrity over the game if, or should we say when, the buzz goes stale.
The NFL has removed all references to Taylor Swift on their social media. I guess after the backlash they panicked. pic.twitter.com/YX4EL2Eosp

The Swiftie profiles made the consumer base grimace, even though Gen Zers and Millennials may have thought they were cute, even if they don’t utilize that phrase.
Football is a trend that will never go away.
