Nickelodeon’s Super Bowl broadcast labeled Travis Kelce not by his own name, but as ‘Taylor Swift‘s boyfriend’ during the Super Bowl.
Kelce’s position, jersey number and the phrase ‘good at football’ were present identifying him without saying his name.
Kelce has been dating Taylor Swift since September and has gained mainstream popularity by being the boyfriend of the 14-time Grammy winner.
Swift dating Kelce has brought younger female fans into the game, with Nickelodeon specializing in children’s television.
Nickelodeon has broadcast a few NFL games before, most recently with the Chiefs game against the Raiders on Christmas Day.
