Drake is picking Travis Kelce and the Chiefs in the Super Bowl.

He shared a screenshot of his bet slip through Stake on Instagram, Saturday night. "I can’t bet against the swifties @stake," Drake captioned the bet. If the Chiefs are victorious, the Toronto rapper will bring in over $2.3 million in earnings.

Fans had mixed responses to the bet in the comments section. "Drake has the script," one user joked. Another wrote: "NINER GANG! Till the death of me." Others shared gifs of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.

"But at the same time, you know, it comes with it. You’ve got a lot of people that care about Taylor, and for good reason. You’ve just got to keep living and learning and enjoying the moments.” Check out Drake's bet on Kelce and the Chiefs below.
