He added that while his family is getting more media attention now, the only thing he’s worried about is Travis’ happiness.
“My brother and his love life are definitely the talk of the NFL right now, and as long as Trav is happy and enjoying life, I’m happy and enjoying life,” Jason continued.
Jason’s thoughts on Swift, 34, came in response to a question about how he and his family are dealing with the increased level of media attention that Travis’ romance has generated.

He said he noticed the extra attention during a recent trip to Disney World with his wife, Kylie, and their three daughters, but he’s trying not to let it affect him too much.
“You try not to change or do anything different,” Jason said, noting that his goal is to “act the same and be the same.”
Jason plans to be in the stands in Las Vegas cheering on Travis and the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl as they compete for the Lombardi Trophy against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.
“It’s going to be a great game to watch, I can’t wait to watch it,” he told NFL Network. “But yes, whenever you watch a loved one compete, you have a very proud feeling that is very different from competing yourself or watching a game on a regular basis.”
