Count Andy Reid as a fan of the Travis Kelce-Taylor Swift romance.

The Kansas City Chiefs coach said "Taylor can stay around all she wants" after his team's 31-17 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Swift, 33, took in the win at Arrowhead Stadium once again, her fourth appearance at a Chiefs game in the past month. The music superstar even debuted a celebratory handshake with Brittany Mahomes, wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, in the suite they shared.

Kelce tied his regular-season career high for receptions (12), with 10 coming in the first half. His 179 receiving yards left him 12 shy of his single-game best (191).

"Kelce keeps getting better with time," Reid said prior to extending the standing invitation to Swift.

At one point during the Sunday's game, according to Next Gen Stats, Kelce and Mahomes extended their connection on 28 consecutive targets dating back to Week 5.

"That's a challenge for defenses," Reid said of the chemistry between tight end and quarterback. "I know they work on it. This isn't a secret.

"They know where the green lights are and where the red lights are."
