The Chiefs were considered underdogs going into the game, but that didn't stop them from starting strong. Before the game even started, there was some tension between Kelce, Patrick Mahomes and Ravens kicker Justin Tucker during the pregame warmups.
But it was Mahomes who got off to a fast start, delivering a perfect pass to Kelce to put the Chiefs ahead. Swift clearly loved it, and her reaction was instantly shown on the TV broadcast
It's been a season of celebrations for Swift, who has watched her boyfriend make some huge plays. But his latest catch in the biggest game of the season so far was a huge moment.
Lamer Jackson soon responded for the Ravens as he dodged a tackle and threw a 30-yard touchdown to rookie receiver Zay Flowers. But Kelce made more big plays on the very next drive as the Chiefs marched down the field to retake the lead.
The Chiefs, with Mahomes at the helm, are no strangers to the AFC Championship. They have their sights set on the Super Bowl, having won two Championship rings recently.
Kelce had his family there in Baltimore for support, including his brother Jason, who also joined him in Buffalo last week. Jason made waves last week when he was spotted shirtless, downing beers with fans at Highmark Stadium. He was less noticeable this Sunday, possibly keeping it low-key with his wife Kylie present.

"He wanted to get the full Bills experience," Kylie shared on Friday. "The Bills are notorious or famous for their tailgating skills.
"He desperately wanted to go through a table. That was on his checklist for the day. The top priority for the day. He did not get a chance to do that. He was unsuccessful." Jason confessed he had warned Kylie about his plans before the game, and she wasn't thrilled about it.
"I'm not gonna lie, I gave (my wife) Kylie a heads up," Kelce admitted on his "New Heights" podcast. He added: "The moment we got into the suite, I said, 'I'm taking my shirt off and I'm jumping out of that suite.' And she said, 'Jason, don't you dare.' I was like, 'Hey, I'm just letting you know it's happening. I'm not asking for permission. I'm doing this.'"
