Chiefs vs Jets game: When is it, how to watch, and will Taylor Swift be in attendance

The Kansas City Chiefs are set to play against the New York City Jets on Sunday 1 October at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, and the hype has been building up for the upcoming game with rumours of Taylor Swift making an appearance. Football fans, Swifties, and casual viewers alike are wondering how, where, and when they can watch the game, whether it’s to watch their favourite athletes in action or their favourite pop star cheering from the sidelines. The Sunday Night Football game is set to start at 8.20 pm ET and 5.20 pm PT, while live coverage will reportedly begin at 7.00 pm ET. Since Taylor Swift made an appearance at the last Chiefs game, Variety reports that the Jets have sold more the double the tickets for the game against the Chiefs than any other game since the season began. Although there are still tickets available on StubHub, there are many ways fans can tune in if they can’t make it in person.

All platforms will have access complete access to every Sunday Night Football game this season and are considered affordable options. The upcoming game has been seeing media traction amid reports that Swift will be in attendance at the game, after she made headlines on 24 September when she enthusiastically cheered Kelce on during his game at Arrowhead Stadium . The promo begins with Swift’s hit song from her 1989 album, ‘Welcome to New York’. The ad then panned to a shot of the New York City skyline, featuring notable NYC landmarks like the Empire State Building, before highlighting clips of MetLife stadium, where the game will take place. It’s clear that advertising is capitalizing on Swift’s potential appearance at the game, but whether or not the ‘Cruel Summer’ singer will show up or not, is up in the air.
