Jason Kelce Jokes That Taylor Swift Fans Have ‘Infatuation’ with Travis Kelce and Chiefs

Jason Kelce has a bone to pick among Taylor Swift fans!

The center of the Philadelphia Eagles (36) joked in the last episode The New Heights Podcast with Jason and Travis Kelce that the Swifties flipped the votes on the “NFL Best Name Team” podcast by voting for the Kansas City Chiefs.

“Swifties have this unreal crush on the Chiefs and Travis Kelce, and they only vote based on the love of you, not the love of the team name,” Jason quipped to Travis Kelce’s brother. “So it wasn’t a realistic representation.”

In turn, the Chiefs tight end accused his brother of rigging votes in favor of the Buffalo Bills and claimed he “totally screwed the Chiefs over to win.”

Jason jokingly noted that the Swifties retaliated by voting for the Minnesota Vikings instead of his team the Philadelphia Eagles, as he was campaigning for the Bills to beat the Chiefs.

Travis interjected, “You know 92 percent what to do.”
