Travis Kelce couldn't resist a subtle nod to Taylor Swift after scoring a historic touchdown for the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday night.
During their 28-7 victory over the Washington Commanders in Kansas City, Kelce caught a pass from good friend Patrick Mahomes to equal Priest Holmes' Chiefs touchdown record with Swift watching on from the stands.
And after setting yet another record for the franchise, the legendary tight end celebrated by performing a dance inspired by one of his fiancee's new songs.
Eagle-eyed Swifties quickly spotted that Kelce pulled out the viral 'Fate of Ophelia' dance following his touchdown, after holding both of his arms out and moving them up and down while shaking his head.
ESPN cameras immediately cut to the pop megastar watching on from her VIP suite alongside Brittany, where she was seen pointing to her man in excitement.
The network finally showed Swift, dressed in a red top, red leather skirt and red knee-high boots, for the first time in their broadcast in the aftermath of his big moment.

The singer, whose stunning diamond engagement ring was clearly visible, looked a little hot under the collar as Kelce made a huge play.
She has made a habit of avoiding the cameras in the first eight weeks of the NFL season, only making a handful of appearances across TV broadcasts and social media.
Swift went under the radar last week for the Chiefs' 31-0 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, not long after she released her new Life of a Showgirl album, and the only sighting of her at Arrowhead Stadium was for a fraction of a second in a fan's TikTok.
She was also at Arrowhead for the October 12 win over the Detroit Lions but, again, her fans only caught glimpses of her enjoying the game.
Monday night was a prime chance to catch up with Kelce's family for her. His brother, Jason, was working in his role as an analyst for ESPN while their parents - Ed and Donna - were also in town for the primetime game.
Kelce and the Chiefs continued their stunning return to form with a third straight win after a slow start to the season that led to questions over their ability to reach another Super Bowl.
He caught six passes off eight targets for 99 yards and one touchdown. The Chiefs' return to form has arrived at the perfect time, given they travel to face Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.
Kelce and Swift announced their engagement in August after two years of dating with the NFL star popping the question with an Old Mine Brilliant Cut diamond ring, which he designed.

Last week, the NFL power couple stunned diners at Kelce's steak restaurant in Kansas City, as they headed out to celebrate the Chiefs' win over the Raiders.
In a clip posted to Facebook by one of the diners, Kelce could be seen fist-bumping guests as he made his way through to his own table, seemingly asking if they were enjoying their meal at his 1587 Prime restaurant.
A few moments later, Swift herself made her way through the restaurant, flanked by a pal, and guests were quite literally left open-mouthed by her appearance.
In a separate photo, the superstar couple stopped off at one table for a quick selfie - taken by Kelce himself, much to the delight of the diners.
