Ravens’ John Harbaugh Laughs Off Reporter’s Question About Taylor Swift Ahead of Chiefs Game
Yes, Baltimore Ravens coach John Harbaugh has a few Taylor Swift songs on his phone. No, he has no intention of deleting them ahead of the AFC championship game against the Kansas City Chiefs this weekend.
It’s only Monday, but Harbaugh already fielded his first non-football Taylor Swift-related question.
Toward the end of the Ravens’ media availability session, the veteran coach admitted he had some Swift songs on his phone, though he declined to mention any specific tracks. Based on his recent history of dance moves, one could probably guess which songs from Swift's discography were his most-played—hits from the 1989 or Reputation eras, perhaps. (No one's moving their knees like that to cottage-core acoustics.)
A reporter jumped in hoping to grab a juicy soundbite and asked Harbaugh if was going to delete those songs this week.
“No, what does that have anything to do with it?” Harbaugh said. The reporter half-jokingly retorted, “She’s dating the opponent.”
Harbaugh just shook his head, gave a wry smile, and asked, “Is it time to end this press conference?”
It was.
The Ravens will host the Chiefs at 3 p.m. ET on Sunday, with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line.
