The Kansas City Chiefs looked happy during their final team practice as they prepare to extend their undefeated record even further with a matchup on Monday Night Football this week.
Kansas City will host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Arrowhead Stadium and players practiced Thursday in preparation for that game.
Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was seen smiling through his helmet during practice, as was quarterback Patrick Mahomes as he swung a pass.
For Kelce, it comes as his girlfriend, pop superstar Taylor Swift, performs her final shows in the United States.
Swift is currently in Indianapolis, performing the first of three shows.

After Indianapolis, Swift then heads north of the border to Canada, where she plays six nights in Toronto and ends the tour with three nights in Vancouver.
As for Kelce, he finally caught his first touchdown pass of the season in a close game against the AFC West rival Las Vegas Raiders.
It broke a drought for Kelce that lasted until the previous season, after he hadn’t caught a touchdown pass since last year’s AFC Championship game against the Baltimore Ravens.
Despite the late arrival in the touchdown category, Kelce still leads the Chiefs in receiving yards and passing targets.
He hopes to be able to continue to build on his strong start to the season with Monday’s match.
