Taylor Swift as part-owner in the NFL? Here’s what NFL’s commissioner, Roger Goodell had to say

The NFL recently approved Tom Brady’s stake as a part-owner of the Las Vegas Raiders, sparking conversations about other high-profile celebrities potentially entering the league as owners. Among those floated? None other than pop superstar Taylor Swift.

The idea surfaced during the NFL owners meeting in Atlanta when a reporter asked Commissioner Roger Goodell about Swift’s potential involvement. While Swift, who is currently dating Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, has never publicly expressed interest in owning a team, the question still generated plenty of buzz.

It’s worth noting that Swift and Goodell were spotted chatting in a suite at the Super Bowl the past February, adding fuel to the speculative fire.

Will Taylor Swift be an owner in the NFL?

At the press conference, blogger and YouTuber Zennie Abraham brought up how Tom Brady’s ownership role has already boosted interest in Raiders season tickets. He then posed a lighthearted question to Goodell:

“With that, has anyone approached Taylor Swift about being a minority partner in the Chiefs?”

Goodell’s amused reaction was immediate. Smiling before the question was even fully asked, he replied, “I really don’t know the answer to that one. If she’s interested, she has the ability to do it, let’s put it that way.”

Why Taylor Swift Would Be a Natural Fit

Swift, whose net worth was recently reported by Forbes to be an astounding $1.6 billion, certainly has the financial clout to join the ranks of NFL team owners. She is now the richest woman in music, surpassing Rihanna, whose net worth is $1.4 billion thanks to her thriving beauty empire.

While celebrity ownership in professional sports isn’t new, most A-list investors have historically bought stakes in NBA, MLB, or soccer teams. However, Swift’s unparalleled global appeal and connection to the NFL through her relationship with Kelce make her a compelling candidate to step into the football world.

On social media, fans wasted no time speculating and having fun with the idea of Swift becoming an NFL owner. One user questioned why she would have to consider the Chiefs specifically, quipping, “Maybe Travis can convince her to buy the Browns.”
