Taylor Swift's relationship with Travis Kelce clearly brought in a lot of new viewers: women.

And of course, many of them are now Kansas City Chiefs fans.

But it's become nearly impossible to watch a Chiefs game and not see Swift on TV over and over again.

Every time Kelce makes a big play, the cameras seem to congratulate Swift.

This makes for some funny moments, like her dropping a bombshell after a play and shaking hands with Patrick Mahomes' wife Brittany.

But the Hall of Fame coach thinks that's gone a little too far.

Tony Dungy said Swift's on-field performance suffered because he played in Chiefs games and essentially became an NFL mainstay in the process.

“That's what's making people disillusioned with sports right now,” Dungey said on Fox News when asked about the “Taylor Swift effect.” “A lot of stuff comes in from the outside. Entertainment value and different things come in. It takes away from what's actually happening on the field.”

Tony Dungy looks on.

Swift and Kelsey began dating in September after the star tight end appeared to be photographed wearing a handmade bracelet that became popular during Swift's Ellas Tour.

Although the two did not verbally confirm that they were dating until recently, they were seen holding hands and kissing on dates after games and concerts.

However, the Chiefs and Kelce have struggled, and many believe Swift's celebrity status is a distraction for Kelce and the team. At one point, Kelce was actually much better in games with Swift than he was without.

Of course, there are many who believe it's all a lie.
