The 2024 NFL season got underway on Thursday night as the Kansas City Chiefs took on the Baltimore Ravens. The Chiefs won by a toenail and celebrated their first win on their road to three straight Super Bowl wins.
Pop megastar Taylor Swift was in attendance to support boyfriend Travis Kelce, which has become common since the two became an item in late 2023. Swift's appearances tend to have varied reactions on social media. Still, the eyes were on her a little more on Thursday night as viral documents swept the internet appearing to be constructed by Kelce's PR Team.
The Sporting News explains the contract itself and discusses what Kelce's legal team plans to do.

Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce breakup contract
The documents are titled "Comprehensive Media Plan for Travis Kelce's Public Relations Following Breakup with Taylor Swift." They detail a plan for the power couple to break up on Sept. 28 and the steps needed to ensure that Kelce's image takes the most negligible hit possible.
The photos went viral on social media, but the tight end's PR team, Full Scope, quickly denounced the claims, saying they were "entirely false and fabricated." The images initially leaked on Reddit, and the PR team is looking into legal action that can be taken.
One thing adding fuel to the fire is that one of Kelce's PR reps, Jack Ketsoyan, admitted on a podcast in 2019 to putting together fake publicity romances in the past.

Is the Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce breakup contract real?
We likely won't ever know if the contract pictured was legitimate or not.
If it were legitimate, there is no way they would still be going through with the projected date of Sept. 28. If it weren't legitimate, then things would still appear business as usual.
Whether it is from hopeful support of the couple or just trying to debunk things on the internet, many people suggest it reads like a class project or something that AI could come up with and not a formal PR document.

When did Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce start dating?
The first time that Swift and Kelce were linked was when the tight end attended her Eras Tour concert in Kansas City in the summer of 2023. Rumors started swirling, especially as Kelce shot his shot for Swift on his and his brother Jason's "New Heights" podcast.
In the fall of 2023, Kelce skirted around questions linking the two, but on Sept. 24, Swift attended a Chiefs game with Kelce's mom, Donna.
Within the next month, the couple was seen more frequently together, with Swift attending more games and the couple all but going public with their relationship. Kelce even surprised Swift during a European stop of the Eras Tour and participated in the show.
