Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid may regret not catching one or two passes thrown his way in Sunday’s 20—17 win over the Chiefs, but the thing he might rue the most? Not noticing Taylor Swift.
Swift was seen walking by the Bills’ locker room huddle before Sunday’s game on her way to a suite. She glanced briefly at the group of Buffalo players but didn’t slow down, and in a few short seconds, she turned the corner and walked away.
Kincaid, who apparently is a huge Taylor Swift fan, lamented missing the opportunity to meet or talk to her.
The rookie tight end said, “I mean I’m sure she’s upset. … Maybe we’ll have a song written about the game.”

I asked him about playing in front of her, he said: “I mean I’m sure she’s upset… maybe we’ll have a song written about the game.” pic.twitter.com/E7FDfZ2s2Z
Much of Swift’s music deals with the topic of heartbreak, and Chiefs fans certainly were feeling some type of way after the controversial ending of the game, when a Kadarius Toney touchdown was wiped away due to an offsides penalty.
Kincaid, who finished with five catches for 21 yards on Sunday, swapped jerseys with Travis Kelce after the game. (The two players had swapped friendship bracelets at Tight End University this past summer.)
Swift remains on hiatus from performing until February 2024 for the next leg of her international Eras Tour, so if the Bills meet the Chiefs in the AFC championship game, there’s a good chance Kincaid will get another shot to meet the pop superstar.
The Bills (7–6) play host to the Cowboys (10–3) next Sunday at 4:25 p.m. ET.
