Tony Romo made a mistake — again! While reporting on the game, the NFL commentator, 43, slipped up and referred to Taylor Swift as Travis Kelce's "wife" instead of his girlfriend during the Monday, December 25, Kansas City Chiefs game against the Las Vegas Raiders.
In the video, posted by ESPN, the 34-year-old pop star stood up to cheer on the athlete, 34, before the camera flashed to Kelce.
“And his wife loves it, I mean, girlfriend,” Romo said in the clip.
“You’ve been down that road with that before,” play-by-play broadcaster Jim Nantz replied.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been dating for a few months.
Following the mix-up, fans went crazy over the former football star's remarks. "@tonyromo know something we don’t? Or care about really but he just called #TaylorSwift @tkelce‘s wife #ChiefsKingdom," one person wrote, while another said, "Tony Romo gotta be manifesting something based on how many times he’s referred to Taylor Swift as Travis Kelce’s wife."
"Someone needs to tell Tony Romo that Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift aren't married," a third person stated.
As OK! previously reported, Romo previously messed up during the Bills-Chiefs game on December 11.

"As you see, Kelce’s wife, Taylor Swift, in the audience," the former Dallas Cowboys star announced as the camera panned from a shot of the professional tight end to a clip of the pop sensation rooting on her man.
However, he almost immediately corrected himself, saying: "Er, I'm sorry. Girlfriend!"
The pair seem like they're in it for the long haul.
"Not yet," another commentator chimed in.
