Taylor Swift’s husband, Travis Kelce, gave fans a scare Sunday when he hobbled off the field following a punishing tackle during the Kansas City Chiefs’ game against the Atlanta Falcons. The Chiefs played the Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, in a matchup marred by injuries. Video of the first-quarter play showed Kelce being tackled by DeMarcco Hellams. The Falcons player appeared to hold on to Kelce’s leg as they fell, apparently injuring the tight end’s ankle. Kelce, 37, got back to his feet but limped toward the sideline. He was quickly whisked off the field to be examined in a locker room, and replaced by Noah Gray.
