The NFL has disclosed an upcoming change that all 32 of its teams will love, and it is believed that Taylor Swift is partly responsible.

While the official figure hasn’t been announced, the league has informed organizations of a projected salary cap range of $277.5 million to $281.5 million for 2025, per NFL Media’s Tom Pelissero.

The figure is said to be more than what teams were expecting, as they were budgeting for a salary cap of $265 million to $275 million. And although the numbers haven’t been confirmed, teams will have a lot more financial leeway than they anticipated.

At the very least, they will see an increase of $22.1 million from the $225.4 million salary cap they had in 2024. At best, it will be a $26.1 million increase.

The new range means the cap will have increased by at least $100 million since 2018 – it was $177 million then – and more than $53 million in the last two years.

Of course, Taylor Swift has no say on NFL matters, as far as we know. However, the league has raked in considerable profit simply due to her involvement with Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs.

According to a report from MarketWatch, data from Apex Marketing, a company focused on advertising and branding services, shows that Taylor has earned the NFL over $1 billion in “total equivalent brand value” since 2023.

Swift’s influence has seen the NFL bring in a total of $1,001,057,453, per the report. Her relationship with Kelce is clearly very profitable for the league, which is now expected to increase its salary cap considerably.

Teams just might be looking to recruit novel celebrity WAGS in the wake of this recent announcement.

Social media might be down incredibly bad as Lucia from Grand Theft Auto is going insanely viral.

GTA 6’s trailer 2 officially broke a record after the upcoming second look at the game, which has continued to take forever to come out.

GTA 6 broke the record for the longest wait between a first and second trailer for a Rockstar Games title ever.

Rockstar has built a rich world of criminals, lunatics, and thieves spanning from Liberty City to San Andreas and beyond. With GTA 6 on the horizon, fans have become ecstatic after seeing a picture of Lucia.

For those unaware, she is a female criminal in the game. Grand Theft Auto states that she did her time at a prison complex in the State of Leonida in the mid-2020s for an unknown crime.

As anticipation builds for the release of Grand Theft Auto 6, a picture shows Lucia stripped down to a two-piece bikini.

“They better have some awesome clothing to choose from. Gotta look cute while doing missions,” a second fan added.

A third fan knew they were no match for her: “If I was in a beauty contest against her, she’d get first place, and I’d get disqualified.”

“She’s beautiful, my sapphic heart can’t take it 🤧,” another X user added.

“not leaving my house anytime soon,” a fan stated about the impending release of the game.

“No arsenal, but ima be a gooner for sure, a sixth fan added.

One final fan added: “Anybody upset about a video game character needs to seriously reevaluate their life.”

Fans Have Waited A Long Time For Grand Theft Auto To Release New Game

Despite their hopes for a release this year fading, the community remains engaged in hopes that a second trailer will be released in early 2025 and a release date of the actual game will come out.

With each passing day, the desire for more news grows stronger.

Hopefully, 2025 will give the fans what they so desperately want.
