Jason Kelce Is ‘Really Happy’ About Brother Travis’ Romance With Taylor Swift, But He Has Concerns

JASON TRAVIS

 

“This is another level of stardom that typically, football players don’t deal with,” the Eagles player noted.

Jason Kelce is just like any other big brother: simultaneously supportive and protective of his younger sibling. In a recent interview, the Eagles offensive lineman opened up about his feelings regarding Travis Kelce‘s blooming romance with Taylor Swift, revealing he feels both happy and concerned for his baby bro.

“On one hand, I’m happy for my brother that he seems to be in a relationship that he’s excited about, that he is genuine about,” Jason told NBC Sports’ Peter King in a conversation published Monday (Oct. 23). “But there’s another end of it where it’s like, ‘Man, this is a lot.’”  The Philly football star also touched on the media’s unrelenting obsession with Travis now that the Chiefs tight end is dating one of the biggest superstars in the world, be it the NFL‘s much criticized Swift-centric coverage or the now-constant paparazzi on Travis’ tail.

“There’s paparazzi talking about him fueling his car before the game today and I’m like, ‘Is that really necessary information to share?’” Jason continued. “This is another level of stardom that typically football players don’t deal with. And so on one hand, really, really happy for my brother and where he’s at in his current situation with Taylor, but on the other hand, there’s some, I think, alarms sometimes with how you know, over-in-pursuit people can be.”

“Overall, he can deal with some of this,” he added. “As long as it’s not, you know, becoming a threat to his safety and things like that.”  Jason’s comments come at the end of a week of “firsts” for Swift and the Kansas City player. The “Anti-Hero” singer and New Heights podcaster were photographed holding hands for the first time as they arrived at SNL afterparty for the season premiere Oct. 15; then, after Sunday’s (Oct. 22) Chiefs game against the Los Angeles Chargers, Swift is seen kissing the younger Kelce on the cheek in a photo shared by Chariah Gordon, who is dating Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman.
