The Denver Broncos defeated the Kansas City Chiefs by a score of 24-9 on Sunday, snapping a 16-game losing streak to their division rival that dated back to the 2015 season.
After the upset win (KC was an 8-point favorite), the Broncos trolled the Chiefs by playing “Shake It Off” at the stadium after the game ended. That song, of course, is performed by Taylor Swift, who was not in attendance on Sunday but has been to several Chiefs games this season to watch tight end Travis Kelce.
Kelce had a relatively quiet game by his standards, catching six passes for 58 yards and no touchdowns in Denver.

The Broncos also referenced the losing streak being snapped with a WWE meme on their Twitter/X page:

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw two interceptions in KC’s loss and the Broncos also forced (and recovered) three fumbles. Those five turnovers ultimately proved to be the difference in the game.
