Travis might be the more famous Kelce brother, but Jason is the sexiest … at least according to People. The Philadelphia Eagles center, 36, beat out his Kansas City Chiefs tight end sibling, 34, for a spot in the magazine’s 2023 “Sexiest Man Alive” issue. Though “Grey’s Anatomy” star Patrick Dempsey landed the cover, Jason was still among the other six handsome gents who were in the running for the title.
The athlete joined “The Last of Us” star Pedro Pascal, “Call Me by Your Name” actor Timothée Chalamet, Grammy winner Usher, Oscar winner Jamie Foxx and rocker Lenny Kravitz. “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder…” Jason quipped on Twitter after his name was announced.

During a recent interview with SportsRadio 94WIP, the host asked the Super Bowl champion, “Are you actually one of the sexiest men alive in your opinion? Because People magazine says you are.”
Jason jokingly replied, “I’m not even the sexiest man in my family, let alone the sexiest man alive. I mean, what are we talking about here? “It’s fun,” he made sure to add, “and the publicity around the family and everything has gone to a completely different level. But yeah, that was funny to see for sure.” He also laughed when asked whether he’s been reminding his wife, Kylie McDevitt, of his new title.
“Exactly,” the father of three responded. “My head did not need to get any bigger walking around the house, that’s for sure.” He told People that he and his “New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce” podcast co-host — who has been under a microscope since his romance with pop star Taylor Swift first made headlines in September — are “just trying to have fun.”
Though all eyes have been on “Traylor” for the past few months amid Swift’s game-day sightings and the couple’s PDA-packed date nights, the NFL star is holding his cards close to his chest. Last week, Travis played coy when asked during a press conference whether he is “in love” with the singer-songwriter, 33.
“Um, I’m gonna keep my personal relationship personal,” the football player replied with a sly smile. As for the pair’s current “status,” he once again gave curious reporters very little insight into his budding relationship. “The latest status is I got to see her last week,” he responded. “That’s the latest status right there.”
