As the connection between Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and superstar singer Taylor Swift continues to fascinate fans, online betting sites are starting to advertise bets people can make on what the future holds for the two.

With only 11 days having passed since Swift appeared at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, some of the prop bets — wagers that don’t depend on the final score of a game — concern the near future, such as when Swift will next attend a Chiefs game.

Others consider the chances of a long-term relationship for the duo: Will they officially be together by Valentine’s Day? What about a celebrity couple nickname?

Online sportsbook BetUS.com has a full array of prop bets that fans can place on Swift and Kelce. Here are a few, and you can visit the sportsbook’s website for the odds on each one.

What Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift prop bets are people wagering on?

Some of the prop bets on BetUS.com featuring Kelce and Swift include:

  • “Will Taylor Swift attend the next Chiefs game at Arrowhead Stadium?” The next home game for the Chiefs is Oct. 12 against the Denver Broncos.

  • “Will Taylor Swift wear a Travis Kelce shirt at the next Kansas City Chiefs game she attends?”
  • “Will Taylor Swift appear on ‘New Heights’ by NFL 2024/2025 Week 1?” The popular podcast is hosted by Travis and his brother Jason Kelce, where they’ve recently discussed Travis’ newfound fame.

A few are related to their personal lives:

  • “Will Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce still be a couple for 2024 Valentine’s Day?”
  • “Will Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce still be a couple by NFL 2024/2025 Week 1?”
  • “Will Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce end their romance before LVIII Super Bowl?”

The prop bet “Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce: what will DailyMail dub ‘Swift & Kelce’ coupling?” has quite a few options. “Swelce” is the favorite with the odds set at +250.

Other names on the prop include “Taytray,” “Trift,” “Trayce,” “Trayvis,” “Swiftis,” “Swivis” and “Taykel.”

One bet that relates to Kelce only concerns his facial hair.

BetUS.com has a prop for “What type of facial hair will Travis Kelce display on Oct. 31?”

The favorite? The mustache he’s sporting now, with the odds set at +140.

Moneyline bets, as seen above, are one way that sportsbooks even the odds between unevenly matched options to draw in money from both sides.

On a moneyline bet, you pick one side to win outright and the payoff is potentially bigger if you bet on the underdog, which BetUS.com says is identified by a plus sign.

Reminder: sports gambling is legal in Kansas and Missouri residents don’t have to live in Kansas to place wagers. All they have to do is cross the state line.
