Jason Kelce Reveals the 'Greatest Thing’ He Thinks Taylor Swift Has Done for Travis Kelce
Jason Kelce offered a rare comment about his brother's relationship with Taylor Swift, revealing what he thinks "the greatest thing" the "Karma" songstress has done for Travis Kelce during the year-plus they've been together is.
During the most recent episode of the NFL legends' New Heights podcast, a debate about all manner of types of foods—many of which it turns out Travis avoids like the plague—eventually led Jason to praise Swift's impact on the "picky" Chiefs star.

It all started when Jason delighted fans when he showed up ahead of the Kansas City Chiefs Vs. New Orleans Saints to tailgate—as he did last season for the team's playoff game against the Buffalo Bills, as well as this season at a Philadelphia Eagles tailgate, just hours before his new gig as an analyst on ESPN's Monday Night Countdown.
While living it up before the game, he sampled some food options, deciding that "the best thing" he ate there was a cheddar bratwurst, because he wasn't anticipating the cheese inside.
"The moment I bit into it...was just a magical moment," he recalled. However, Travis isn't one for "cylindrical meats" like sausage, and things quickly devolved between the brothers.
"You're out on a cheddar brat?" Jason asked in shock when the younger Kelce brushed off the meal. "What on earth are you out on a cheddar brat for?"
"Anything in, like, a casing like that, I'm out," Travis replied.
The two argued back and forth about whether they made sausages without a casing before moving on to other offerings, with Jason telling Travis he was "missing out" due to his hesitant nature.
Travis eventually admitted he was "starting to open up" to other options, to which Jason excitedly replied, "I know! My girl Tay is getting you opened up!"
"She is," Travis agreed.
"She's introducing new foods to you and it is one of the greatest things that I've been happy about," Jason added.
Swift is somewhat of a foodie, rarely arriving somewhere empty-handed. The singer has been known to bake treats like cinnamon rolls and homemade pop-tarts before games and gatherings and has been seen cooking with the athlete in rare home footage. (Although, Kelce declined to share more intimate details about their ventures in the kitchen.) So it's unsurprising to hear that she's helping him to expand his palate!
