Jason Kelce Playfully Teases Travis Kelce Over Taylor Swift’s Return to NFL Game
Jason Kelce is crediting himself with bringing back Travis Kelce’s mojo.
The former Philadelphia Eagles center teased his younger brother on the Oct. 9 episode of their New Heights podcast, poking fun at the buzz around the Kansas City Chief’s celebrity cheering section.
"Travis came up big because he had someone special in the stadium,” Jason quipped, “someone that means a lot to him and he really always tries to perform well when they're there and that is me."
Of course, Jason was hinting at Travis’ support from his girlfriend Taylor Swift, who made her return to the Arrowhead Stadium for the Chiefs’ Oct. 7 game against the New Orleans Saints.
Jason continued the bit, adding of his brother, whom he referred to as “Primetime Big Yeti,” that he always has “good games when I show up.”
Travis agreed that he was on his game for the face-off, which the Chiefs won 26 to 13.
“I do love a good Monday night showdown,” the tight end admitted. “I was fired up for that one.”
After the “So High School” singer was absent from a few of her NFL star boyfriend’s recent games, Tay showed up in style for the latest, rocking a plaid off-the-shoulder mini-dress, knee-high boots, and making a statement with some facial glitter freckles.
Jason even gave Tay his seal of approval as he saw her arriving during ESPN’s live broadcast.
"Hey, look at that now," Jason said in a clip shared to X when the camera cut to Taylor arriving at the venue. "That looks good."
In addition to cheering on Travis from a private box, Taylor also celebrated the team’s win with some of her fellow WAGs, appearing in Mecole Hardman’s fiancée Chariah Gordon’s Instagram Story.
“I think that we feel really good after this win,” Chariah said in the clip. “We’re five and zero going into a bye week. It is perfect.”
Taylor couldn’t agree more adding, “Perfect is the word.”
