Xavier Worthy received a surprise when he met Taylor Swift on the field during the Kansas City Chiefs’ AFC Championship celebration.
“Oh s–t, taller than me,” the Chiefs wide receiver, 21, quipped in video footage circulating via X on Sunday, January 26, while friends and family flooded the field to congratulate the Chiefs on advancing to Super Bowl LIX next month.
In the clip, Swift, 35, can be seen standing behind Worthy, reveling in the moment after her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s team beat the Buffalo Bills 32-29 at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri. Worthy, who is seen speaking to someone off-camera, appears taken aback by the pop star’s height.
For what it’s worth, Worthy is billed at 5-foot-10 on the Chiefs’ website, while Swift has been reported to be somewhere between 5-foot-10 and 5-foot-11.
