On the Season 2 premiere of the &#8220;New Heights&#8221; podcast, Jason Kelce got right to the heart of the matter.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Trav, how&#8217;s it feel that Taylor Swift finally put you on the map?&#8221; Jason asked his younger brother.<\/p>\n<p>While the Eagles center&#8217;s inquiry was said in jest, when you take into account the more than 400% increase in Travis&#8217; jersey sales and his meteoric social media following gains since Swift&#8217;s Arrowhead appearance, it&#8217;s a valid question.<\/p>\n<p>Travis took the probe in stride, happily reflecting on Sunday&#8217;s events.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I just thought it was awesome how everybody in the suite had nothing but great things to say about her,&#8221; Kelce said. &#8220;&#8230; She looked amazing. Everybody was talking about her in a great light. And on top of that, the day went perfect for Chiefs fans.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">ATTENTION SWIFTIES: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/tkelce?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@tkelce<\/a> recapped <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/taylorswift13?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@taylorswift13<\/a>&#8216;s day at the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Chiefs?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@Chiefs<\/a> game<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And then we just slid off in the Getaway Car.&#8221; \ud83d\ude0f (via <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/newheightshow?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@newheightshow<\/a>) <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/0YmDPe9Cyy\">pic.twitter.com\/0YmDPe9Cyy<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 NFL (@NFL) <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NFL\/status\/1707025524944449881?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 27, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;To see the slow-motion chest bumps, to see the high-fives with Mom, to see how Chiefs Kingdom was all excited that she was there &#8212; that s&#8212; was absolutely hysterical,&#8221; Kelce said. &#8220;It&#8217;s definitely a game I&#8217;ll remember, that&#8217;s for damn sure.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Chiefs star even acknowledged the conspiracy theories, joking, &#8220;We script it all, ladies and gentlemen.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Whether Travis could be the one, or if Swifties will soon forget that he existed, remains to be seen, but in the meantime we&#8217;ll continue to document them taking on the world together.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h2>&#8216;Bejeweled&#8217; &#8212; Sept. 25<\/h2>\n<p>Real, as they say, recognizes real.
