Taylor Swift is making NFL fans 'disenchanted' with games, claims coaching legend Tony Dungy: 'She's distancing herself from what's actually happening on the field'

Taylor Swift's viral appearances at NFL games are “disenchanting” fans of the sport because they detract from what happens on the field.

That's the opinion of legendary former Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Indianapolis Colts head coach Tony Dungy, who believes the “entertainment value” of modern sports is driving people away from games.

Swift has attended a number of Chiefs games this season amid her whirlwind romance with Travis Kelce, with the pop sensation dancing alongside his mother Donna and fellow WAG Brittany Mahomes during Kansas City's playoff win over the Miami Dolphins in a frigid Arrowhead on Saturday Night.

While her performances have brought a lot of new attention to the sport, die-hard football fans have become frustrated with the amount of camera time Swift gets during games, attacking the NFL and television networks for not focusing solely on the action itself. .

And Dungy, a Super Bowl winner as a player and as a coach, can understand why fans become disillusioned with the sport.

When asked by Fox News for his thoughts on the Swift frenzy in football right now, the 68-year-old said: “That's what's disenchanting people with sports right now, there's so much coming in from the outside – entertainment value and other things.”

“It takes away from what's actually happening on the field.”

Taylor celebrated Travis and the Chiefs' 26-7 win over the Dolphins on Saturday in a box next to Donna and Brittany, before she was filmed holding hands and talking to her boyfriend as they left the stadium together after midnight.

The singer and songwriter's return to Kansas City came amid reports she was expecting an icy reunion with Kelce after their first big fight over Christmas.

But Swift seemed to fully support her man, even wearing a custom Chiefs puffer jacket that featured his name and Chiefs No. 87.

After arriving at Arrowhead about an hour before kickoff, she sat next to Donna Kelce the entire time as the Chiefs and Dolphins played the fourth coldest game in NFL history.

At one point, she was seen leaning out the window of Kelce's suite to wave to the fans sitting around her and even high-five them as they celebrated the Chiefs scoring a touchdown.

But then, near the end of the fourth quarter, with the Chiefs holding an unassailable 26-7 lead, Swift led the celebrations.

Together with Donna and Brittany, they danced back and forth to the music that sounded through the stadium.

Swift and Mahomes really went for it and Donna joined in as they started the celebration early.

However, her mood was the complete opposite of how she was rumored to feel over Christmas when she watched Kelce and the Chiefs lose to the Las Vegas Raiders.

The NFL star reportedly let his emotions get the best of him after the loss at Arrowhead Stadium, leaving his girlfriend feeling “hurt and confused.” During the loss, he was also seen throwing down his helmet in anger on the sidelines.

Amid reports of his feud with Swift, Kelce was seen earlier on Saturday with a stony look on his face in exclusive photos from Dailymail.com as he left the Chiefs' hotel down the road.

A source says the fight ruined his and Taylor's vacation as it was their first fight together in five months.
