Jason Kelce knows better than to say he wants Taylor Swift to appear on his podcast.
The Philadelphia Eagles center, 35, dropped the “Anti-Hero” singer’s name while answering Devin McCourty’s question about who his “dream guest” would be at his New heights with Jason and Travis Kelce podcast.
“I can’t say Taylor Swift. Come on, it’s too obvious. Travis would kill me,” Jason said in the video NFL on NBC posted on his YouTube page on Saturday.
Although he had rattled off the names of several athletes he had admired before, he ultimately settled on his Aunt Judy as his dream podcast guest. “We have to get my Aunt Judy on the podcast,” Jason said.

Jason’s comment comes amid his brother Travis Kelce’s new romance with Swift, 33. The NFL brothers spoke openly about the Grammy winner on their New heights podcast from July.

After that episode, Swift has been mentioned numerous times on the podcast since she was first seen with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end leaving Arrowhead Stadium in his convertible after attending the Kansas City Chiefs’ game against the Chicago Bears in September. 24.

Recently, Jason and Travis talked about how they felt when they saw their father, Ed Kelce, talking to Swift at the Chiefs game against the Denver Broncos on Oct. 13.
“If you watched the game, you saw something important happen, which is Taylor Swift talking to Ed Kelce,” Jason began the conversation on Wednesday’s episode.
“You know dad like I know dad,” Travis added. “This is a scary conversation. I felt terrible for Taylor for being in this.”
The two joked about how scary it can be to talk to your father. “If you see dad talking to somebody and you don’t hear what’s going on, who knows where that conversation is going,” Jason said.

However, they ended up calling Ed “the best fucking dad in the world” and noting how “you can see in this picture all he’s doing is pumping it up.”
Travis added that Ed has started listening to Swift’s music “a little bit more” as well, greeting him at the end of the segment. “Thanks dad for not making me look bad mate” he said.

Travis also talked about his weekend with Swift in New York before wrapping up Wednesday’s episode. The two were photographed holding hands after going out for dinner ahead of their “spectacular” separate episodes SNL and at the party after the show. The couple also stepped out hand-in-hand the following night after dining at the Waverly Inn restaurant.
“We appeared in SNL I have an idea to go and support Ice Spice,” Travis explained. “She and Taylor are good friends.”
As for his last-minute appearance in a sketch about what Jason called “Swift mania in the NFL,” Travis said, “I thought it was funny and when they asked me to be a part of it, I was like, man how honored I would be.”
“It was nerve-wracking to be back in that place,” the two-time Super Bowl champion continued of his first return to the show since leading it in March. “There’s something about being in that room. And since it’s their first episode of the season, I had such a freaking man.”
Of their blossoming romance, a source recently told PEOPLE that “Taylor is unlike anyone Travis has dated before” — but he’s more than ready for it.
“It was very unexpected for his friends, but he is very much in love with her and very, very happy,” the insider shared. “Some people thought he was just joking about the bracelet and that he had a crush on her earlier this summer, but he was serious about it.”
