NBC‘s Sunday Night Football game featuring the Kansas City Chiefs vs. the New York Jets averaged approximately 27 million viewers, making it the most-watched Sunday show since Super Bowl LVII on Fox in February.

According to preliminary data across NBC, Peacock, NBC Sports Digital, and NFL Digital platforms, that’s a 22% lift from last year’s Week 4 game (22.2 million as the Chiefs faced Tom Brady and the Buccaneers). Last night’s game also registered a national TV household rating of 12.9/35 — up 15% from last year’s Week 4 matchup.

Viewership peaked at an estimated 29.4 million viewers between 9:30-9:45 p.m. ET as the Jets climbed their way within eight points of the Chiefs in the second quarter of the game. Though, Kansas City ultimately took home the win with a 23-20 final score.

With another appearance from Taylor Swift, who was joined by friend Blake Lively, amid romance rumors with Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce, NBC’s “Taylor Made for Sunday Night” Sunday Night Football game promo was viewed approximately 8 million times.

Taylor Swift cheers for Travis Kelce at Chiefs vs Jets game with Sophie Turner, Blake Lively, more

Welcome (back) to MetLife Stadium.

Four months after Taylor Swift rocked the New Jersey venue on her Eras Tour, she returned to support rumored beau Travis Kelce as his Kansas City Chiefs take on the New York Jets.

Swift was spotted arriving to the stadium on Sunday evening along with pals Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman and Sabrina Carpenter.

The “Anti-Hero” singer — who wore high-waisted denim shorts, a black leather jacket and black boots — was also flanked by her brother, Austin, as they made their way to their seats.

Once inside, Swift was back to last weekend’s antics and cheered her heart out from a VIP suite.

Kelce’s mom, Donna, and Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes’ wife, Brittany Mahomes, also chatted with the musician and her pals.

The outing came just hours after Kelce was seen leaving Swift’s NYC apartment following a morning hang.

Swifties had debated the Grammy winner’s possible presence at the football game after her appearance at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo., went viral last week.

As reports surfaced that she “plan[ned] to be in attendance,” ticket prices began to skyrocket.

“Would it be cute or psychotic to buy jets-chiefs tickets for this sunday in hopes of seeing taylor swift at metlife,” one Twitter user asked.

Another called the game their “only chance to see Taylor Swift at MetLife this year.”

Many pointed out that the songwriter “must really like Travis Kelce” to support the tight end at back-to-back games.

News broke in September that the duo had been “hanging out,” two months after Kelce spoke publicly about attempting to give Swift his number.

Taylor Swift attends Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs game with his mom amid dating rumors

Taylor Swift is really fueling those Travis Kelce dating rumors.

The “Bad Blood” singer attended the Kansas City Chiefs game against the Chicago Bears at Arrowhead Stadium with the NFL star’s mom, Donna Kelce, on Sunday.

Swift sported the team’s colors by rocking a red-and-white zip-up jacket over a simple white top.

She completed the look by wearing her hair styled down and straight, with her signature red lip color on full display.

Swift — who appears to be in her WAGS era — was photographed cheering on her rumored beau alongside the athlete’s supportive mother, who was wearing a Chiefs jersey with her son’s number.

The “Blank Space” songstress and Travis, both 33, have been sparking romance rumors for awhile now — ever since the Super Bowl champion shared that he tried and failed to give Swift his number at her Eras Tour stop in Kansas City, Mo., in July.

The famous tight end revealed earlier this week that he invited the pop star to attend one of his games.

“I told her, ‘I’ve seen you rock the stage in Arrowhead, you might have to come see me rock a stage at Arrowhead and we can see which ones a little more lit,’” he said during an appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show” Thursday, referencing his NFL team’s home stadium.

“We’ll see what happens in the near future.”

At the time, Travis also addressed the “intense” rumors that have been spiraling online and in the press for weeks now.

“No one knows what’s going on, especially when you’ve got Jason Kelce on live television telling people both sides,” he said, referring to a recent interview when his brother joked the rumors were “100 percent” true.

“He goes on ‘Thursday Night Football’ … the first thing he brings up is [his former reality show] ‘Catching Kelce.’ Then, not even a week later he’s telling everyone it’s 100 percent true … the guy is absolutely [ridiculous] he can’t stay out of the f—king headlines.”

“We’ll see what happens in the near future,” Travis teased on “The Pat McAfee Show” Thursday.

Travis Kelce’s brother on NFL star’s Taylor Swift dating rumors: ‘I think it’s all 100% true’

Rumors about Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift have swirled for a few weeks

Travis Kelce’s brother, Jason, said Wednesday in a radio interview that he thinks the rumors about the Kansas City Chiefs tight end dating pop superstar Taylor Swift are “100% true.”

Jason, the star lineman for the Philadelphia Eagles, was asked about the rumors on 94 WIP in Philadelphia.

“It’s hard to answer because I don’t really know what’s happening in Travis’ love life and I try to, like, keep, you know, his business kind of his business and stay out of that world,” Jason explained.

“But having said that, man, I think he’s doing great. I think it’s all 100% true.”

Reps for Travis and Swift didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.

The Eagles player’s comments came after he was asked about the dating rumors. Amazon analyst Tony Gonzalez was trying to get him to open up about it.

“I have seen these rumors, I cannot comment,” Jason said with a laugh, as Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts added it felt like they were on “Gossip TV.”

“Ever since ‘Catching Kelce,’ everybody’s been infatuated with Travis’ love life,” Jason said, referencing a 2016 reality dating show that featured the Kansas City Chiefs star.
