Chiefs are travel-bound, as they've yet to secure a win without Swift.
The Kansas City Chiefs suffered a narrow defeat in their season opener against the Los Angeles Chargers, with a final score of 21-27. The game, which took place as part of a Brazil tour, saw Travis Kelce score a touchdown for the Chiefs, while Justin Herbert led the Chargers to victory, passing for 318 yards and three touchdowns.
In a notable play during the game, Kelce experienced a hard hit on the helmet from Teair Tart, a defender from the Chargers. However, the hit resulted in a 15-yard penalty for Tart instead of a disqualification. Despite the impact, Kelce managed to score a touchdown for the Chiefs.
The Chiefs now face pressure heading into their Week 2 match against the Philadelphia Eagles, the team that defeated them in the Super Bowl seven months ago by a score of 20-44. The rematch will take place on Sunday, September 14, 2025.
Interestingly, Kelce's fiancée, Taylor Swift, did not attend the game in São Paulo.
In a surprising turn of events, Justin Herbert downplayed the significance of the victory against the Chiefs, stating that it was just another football game for the Chargers.
Patrick Mahomes also scored a touchdown in the same game for the Chiefs. However, Teair Tart later played a crucial role in preventing the Chiefs from tying the game after a touchdown scored by Kelce, with the score at 18-20.
The Chiefs and the Chargers will undoubtedly look back on this game as a close and hard-fought contest, setting the tone for the rest of the season. As the Chiefs prepare for their upcoming match against the Eagles, they will be determined to avenge their Super Bowl loss and start their season on a winning note.
