Travis Kelce is ready to school the Buffalo Bills.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 35, arrived at Arrowhead Stadium in an ensemble that was straight out of the tortured poets department. The nerdy-chic game-day outfit featured a tan suit with gray stripes on the left arm and thigh, cropped pants and a gray beanie.

He finished the look with dark-framed glasses and white sneakers. Kelce entered to the 1977 Bee Gees’ hit “Night Fever.”

His girlfriend Taylor Swift, meanwhile, went logo-heavy in a black and gold $5,000 Louis Vuitton Monogram Jacquard Knit Jacket, a $550 LV Spark Beanie plus a $2,850 Louis Vuitton chain wallet, black pleated miniskirt, red tights and heeled combat boots.

The Chiefs are facing Josh Allen and the Bills in the AFC Championship. The winner will play in the Super Bowl at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans on Sunday, Feb. 9.

If the Chiefs win this game and win the Super Bowl, they will be the first team to win three-straight Lombardi trophies in NFL history.

The Chiefs previously faced the Bills during the regular season and lost 30-21 on Nov. 17, one of the just two losses for the otherwise undefeated Chiefs this year.

Following the November game against the Bills, Kelce admitted that he didn’t play his best.  “And that s—, it pisses me off, and it made me, you know, go right back into work on Monday after the game and get after it and find a find a way to make s— right,” he said on his podcast New Heights.

However, the loss didn’t seem to phase him for too long as the Chiefs headed into the postseason with a potential rematch against the Bills in the cards.

During last week’s Jan. 18 playoff game against the Houston Texans, Kelce scored a touchdown in the fourth quarter to extend the Chiefs’ lead. Earlier that game, he completed a 49-yard reception that marked the longest postseason reception of his career.
