Taylor Swift is ready for Travis Kelce's latest football game.

On Monday, Oct. 7, the "So High School" singer, 34, returned to Missouri to cheer on her boyfriend Kelce, 35, as the Kansas City Chiefs battled the New Orleans Saints at the Arrowhead Stadium.

In a video captured by KWCH reporter Brandon Zenner at the stadium, Swift could be seen arriving with her father Scott Swift in a red and gray plaid skirt set and black chunky boots.

The Chiefs have been 4-0 so far this season, defeating the Baltimore Ravens for the season opener and the Cincinnati Bengals the following week, before beating the Atlanta Falcons on Sept. 22, and then defeating the Los Angeles Chargers on Sept. 29.

Kelce was no doubt thrilled to see his girlfriend at the game again after she was absent the past two games despite attending the first two of the season. He also teased two days before the game, at the Kelce Car Jam 2024 on Saturday, Oct. 5 (also Kelce's birthday), that the singer would be attending the Monday Night Football game.

The "Love Story" hitmaker has had a bit more time to attend Chiefs games as she's currently taking a break from her hugely successful Eras Tour, which has seen her travel all over the United States, Europe, parts of Asia and Australia.

During Kelce's off-season, the tight end traveled to support his 14-time Grammy-winning girlfriend at several of her shows, with the athlete even making his onstage debut during Swift's third show at London's Wembley Stadium on June 23.

Now, Swift has been returning the favor, cheering him on until she returns to the Eras Tour and goes to Miami in mid-October, wrapping up three more United States tour stops and then heading to Toronto and Vancouver to finish out the record-breaking shows.

Swift's family has even been spotted cheering on Kelce at football games, with her mom Andrea Swift wearing a pin that said "In My 87 Era" on her red shirt on Sept. 15 during the Chiefs' game against the Bengals.

Swift previously brought her parents and brother Austin with her to watch Kelce play on Christmas Day during the 2023-2024 season. Kelce's dad Ed joined the Swifts ahead of the game as well, truly making the holiday a family affair.

The last time Swift had a break from tour, she and Kelce made sure they took advantage of the shared time off. They took a vacation to the Bahamas and spent time recharging in California.

A source told PEOPLE in March that Swift was enjoying her time off from touring with Kelce. "They are spending time in Los Angeles together," the insider said at the time. "They're still very happy."
