Caitlin Clark watched the Indiana Fever 's season end last week in the 2025 WNBA semifinals; they fell to A'ja Wilson and the Las Vegas Aces 3-2 in the best-of-five series. The former Iowa Hawkeyes star played in only 13 games this season due to multiple injuries, and she missed the postseason entirely.
To start the offseason, Clark joined several Fever teammates, including Aari McDonald , Makayla Timpson and Natasha Howard , at Lucas Oil Stadium for the Indianapolis Colts ' 40-6 win over the Las Vegas Raiders . Before the game, Clark and her teammates were invited onto the field, where she received a custom No. 22 jersey with her name on the back.

While her teammates put on their jerseys, Clark chose not to wear hers. A native of Des Moines, Iowa, she grew up a Kansas City Chiefs fan, the closest NFL team to her hometown, and she has publicly shared her support for the team on multiple occasions. Clark remained loyal to her NFL team by opting not to wear the Colts jersey.
NFL and WNBA fans took notice of Clark not wearing her Indianapolis jersey, taking to social media to leave their thoughts.
"CC is a Chiefs fan. I love how she's not wearing the jersey 🤣," one fan said .
"She wants to be at Chiefs game with Taylor fr," added another.
"lmfao caitlin not wearing that jersey," wrote a third.
"If ain't Chief's red, she ain't wearing it, respectfully," claimed a fourth.
"Caitlin said thanks guys but wearing the jersey is a bit too far for this Chiefs fan.. baby steps, she will get there 🤣🤣," posted a fifth.
"Caitlin is not putting in the Colts jersey. Chiefs all the way," wrote a sixth.
The Colts have been one of the biggest surprises of the NFL this season. With the Week 5 win over Las Vegas , Indianapolis improves to 4-1. It will remain home in Week 6 to host the Arizona Cardinals .
