Travis Kelce's Niece Has the Sweetest Reaction to Watching Football
Travis Kelce
The title of Travis Kelce's biggest fan may be tied up between his girlfriend, pop superstar Taylor Swift, and his niece, Wyatt Kelce.
According to his sister-in-law Kylie Kelce, the 4-year-old "enjoys watching [football] here and there." But it's not so much because of the competition, rather, the chance of seeing her dad, Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, or her Uncle Travis on the big screen.
"We like to look at the TV for times that Jason might have his helmet off, or Uncle Trav might have his helmet off," Kylie shared with People in an interview published Wednesday, Dec. 13.
"Those are the moments when I can really suck them into a game because then they don't look like every other person on the field. When the helmets are off, they can say, 'Oh, that's definitely dad.'"
"Anytime they see red teams on the TV, they say, 'Are we cheering for the red team?'" Kylie said of her daughters' behavior while catching a game. "Because usually, we're watching Uncle Trav."
Along with Wyatt, Kylie and Jason share two more daughters, Elliotte, 2, and Bennett, 8 months.
Despite being so young, Kylie revealed that the girls' understanding of football is "progressing."
"You can see how they're picking up on those small hints and cues and learning how to watch football," she told the outlet. "But I would say when it comes to watching the actual game, our middle Elliotte—actually, it's the strangest thing—will cheer at the right times where it's almost as if she understands the game."
Knowledge of the game at such a young age must come with the territory of having two Super Bowl champs in the family–one of which is your dad–and the all-time leading receiver in Kansas City Chiefs franchise history as your uncle.
And when your uncle is cool enough to buy you your first Polaroid camera as a birthday gift and invites you to join in on his podcast, you're probably more enticed to learn the rules of the game. Well, that and the fact that Travis' own mom said, "He’s a kid himself," might have something to do with it, as he can explain it in terms they understand, but that's just a guess.
