An NFL podcaster forced to apologise after making a distasteful joke about Taylor Swift in a rant about her other half Travis Kelce's Kansas City Chiefs.
On Sunday, the Chiefs beat the Denver Broncos 16-14 at the Arrowhead Stadium to make it nine wins in a row.
Swift was in attendance alongside her mum Andrea and dad Scott as Kelce levelled Tony Gonzalez's record for most receptions in the NFL.

Kelve made a second touchdown catch of the season from a Patrick Mahomes pass, with CBS Sports commentator Kevin Harlan saying "That will give you something to sing about!" in his commentary.
But there was another Swift comment elsewhere which courted controversy. Cam Stewart, who is a host for SportsGrid, has been blasted for a joke he made about the pop sensation.
His co-host mentioned Swift supporting Kelce for his matches despite being in the middle of a packed tour and he proceeded to shout, "Oh who cares? Throw her in the [Niagara] Falls".
But the jibe drew plenty of backlash, with one fan pointing out that four people recently went missing at Niagara Falls and another saying, "The joke is you" and branding the remark "Disgusting".

Stewart took to X to provide a response, writing: "Didn't mean it bad joke".
Negative comments still persisted to Stewart but after some fans showed support, he added: "Thank you to all my friends for having my back it means alot [sic] !!!!".
Last Sunday was the 17th time Swift has watched her three-time Super Bowl winning other half Kelce play live, with the Chiefs in action again this coming weekend when they take on the Buffalo Bills at the Bills Stadium.

It remains to be seen if Swift will be in attendance this Sunday as she begins the final leg of her Eras tour this Thursday - with three dates pencilled in for the Rogers Centre in Toronto.
