ESPN's Chris 'Mad Dog' Russo has been forced to issue a humiliating apology to Caitlin Clark after accusing her of faking her Kansas City Chiefs fandom. WNBA star Clark watched Travis Kelce's team beat the Houston Texans in the divisional round of the playoffs alongside Taylor Swift on Saturday.

Clark joined Swift in the Kelce family suite to witness a masterclass from the tight end as the Chiefs took another step towards a historic Super Bowl three-peat. The pair were sat together for the thrilling finale, which saw Kelce score a fourth-quarter touchdown while the game was on a knife-edge.

Swift erupted with joy in the VIP suite, leaping to her feet and hugging Clark. It was the key moment of the game, giving the Chiefs an eight-point lead. They would go on to record a 23-14 victory. But Clark's presence in the VIP suite should hardly come as a surprise. Not only is she a lifelong Chiefs fan, but the Indiana Fever guard was recently a guest on New Heights, the popular podcast hosted by Kelce and his older brother Jason.
