Watch the Kansas City Chiefs live with a digital HDTV antenna
If you're cutting the cord to your cable company, you're not alone; in fact, you are in luck. You can still watch the NFL on TV with an affordable indoor antenna, which pulls in local over-the-air HDYC channels such as CBS, NBC, ABC, Fox, PBS, Univision and more. Here's the kicker: There's no monthly charge.
Anyone living in partially blocked-off area (those near mountains or first-floor apartments), a digital TV antenna may not pick up a good signal -- or any signal at all. But for many homes, a digital TV antenna provides a seriously inexpensive way to watch college football without paying a cable company. Indoor TV antennas can also provide some much-needed TV backup if a storm knocks out your cable (or your cable company gets in a squabble with a network).
This amplified digital antenna can receive hundreds of HD TV channels, including ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, FOX, Univision and can filter out cellular and FM signals. It received signals 360 degrees and delivers a high-quality picture in 4K, UHD and 1080 HDTV, top-tier sound and features a 16-foot digital coax cable. This bestselling antenna usually retails for about $23, but we've seen it priced as low as $13.

There's a football game happening, too: Despite two Super Bowl wins in the past three years, the biggest story to hit Arrowhead Stadium has been the budding romance of Chiefs tight end Kelce and pop queen Swift. Swifties and football fans alike have fervently documented Swift's every in-stadium appearance to watch Kelce play (she's watched four games live, but who's counting?) and purchased every last red piece of clothing Taylor Swift has worn.
The Swift effect has also made Kelce's jersey nearly impossible to find (of course we found it for you, you're welcome), earned him a massive increase in social media followers and made the Kansas City Chiefs game the hottest ticket in town -- and on TV.
Swift's foray into sports fandom has made some diehard NFL purists twitch with all the non-football talk during football. In truth, Swift's appearances at Chiefs game has only brought more enthusiastic eyes to the game, which is ultimately good for the brand. And if it wasn't clear by the friendship bracelets, Eras Tour ticket sellouts and Eras Tour movie reviews, it's Taylor Swift's world and we're all just living in it. Now it's Travis', too.
Will Taylor Swift attend this week's Kansas City Chiefs game?
Swift's Eras Tour ramped back up with South American dates in Argentina and Brazil Nov. 9 - Nov. 26. Now that her tour is finished for the year, Travis and Taylor have "hard launched" their relationship and are seemingly everywhere the other is.
Taylor's Eras Tour takes a winter break until Feb. 7, 2024, when the tour heads to Tokyo, Japan. Super Bowl LVIII will be played Feb.11, 2024, which means Taylor won't be at the Super Bowl if the Chiefs play. But fans can count on spotting Swift at multiple playoff games prior, including this week's game against the Patriots.
