  • Taylor Swift, Caitlin Clark, Este Haim and Glenn Beck attended Sunday.

It was a beautiful day at Arrowhead Stadium, made more perfect for Kansas City fans as the Chiefs defeated the Los Angeles Chargers 22-6.

Travis and Jason Kelce’s podcast hosted a special tailgate for fans. And the stadium was packed with star power on Sunday afternoon: Taylor Swift, Caitlin Clark and Este Haim were seated in one of the suites, while the conservative commentator Glenn Beck was also at Arrowhead.

Many different wide receivers got looks for the Chiefs on Sunday, and as Star columnist Sam McDowell writes, the contrast between Patrick Mahomes and Justin Herbert’s performance at quarterback is something worth analyzing.

Relive the game in photos from The Kansas City Star’s Dominick Wililams and the Wichita Eagle’s Travis Heying:
