Jason and Travis Kelce are recapping their epic Sunday at Highmark Stadium.
In a new episode of their podcast, New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce, presented by Wave Sports & Entertainment, the brothers reviewed the Kansas City Chiefs’ win over the Buffalo Bills, and also debriefed Jason’s multiple viral moments from the evening.
“I wanted to take everything off and be out there with the fans,” the Philadelphia Eagles center, 36, said about his decision to strip his shirt off and jump into the stands.
He had been wanting to “go outside” and “take my shirt off and be out there,” Jason admitted. “I feel like taking your shirt off is a Buffalo Bills thing. I wanted to take everything off and be out there with the fans.”

As for what kind of impression it made on Travis’ girlfriend Taylor Swift, who joined Jason and his wife Kylie Kelce in Travis’ suite for the game, the 34-year-old Chiefs tight end said, “Tay said she absolutely loved you.”
“Your best first impression is the worst impression ever,” he teased, before calling the shirtless scene similar to a Will Ferrell scene in Old School where the actor runs around screaming, ” ‘We’re gonna go streaking!’ “
The shirtless antics had been discussed between Jason and Kylie, 31, before the game took place, though. “I’m not going to lie, I gave Kylie a heads-up. The moment we get into the suite, I said, ‘I’m taking my shirt off and jumping out of that suite.’ And she said, ‘Jason don’t you dare.’ “
“Once a Kelce man’s determined there’s no f—ing stopping him,” Travis agreed.

“She was already telling me to be on my best behavior ’cause we were meeting Taylor, so she’s like, ‘Do not. Be on your best behavior.’ I was like ‘Kylie, the first day I met you I was blackout drunk and fell asleep at the bar,’ ” Jason continued, referencing his first date with his now-wife.
“This is part of the charm. This is part of the Jason Kelce charm. I wanna make my best first impression,” he added.
Travis also admitted he wanted more Kylie content from the game: “There was not enough cameras on the suite where you can see Kylie. I wanted to see her reaction to all of that so bad.”
Jason shared of his wife’s reaction, “I don’t think she was happy about it, to be honest with you.”
Though Jason isn’t totally sure his wife loved the hilarious scene he put on at Highmark Stadium, the internet loved the glimpses they got of Kylie’s reaction.

Fans jokingly said she looked “unfazed” by her husband’s celebration in a post on X (formerly Twitter). “My favorite part is Kylie Kelce looking absolutely unfazed in the back,” one social-media user wrote, in a post that has since earned over 60,000 likes.
Another X user shared a video of Jason after he jumped out of the suite, as someone inside tells the Eagles center, “Hey, Kylie said get your ass back in here.”
Along with Swift, 34, Kylie and Jason, the brothers’ parents, Donna and Ed Kelce, as well as Swift’s friend Cara Delevingne were also in the suite cheering on the Chiefs on Sunday. They were joined byPatrick Mahomes’ wife Brittany, who shared her own excitement with Swift after her husband and Kelce connected in the third quarter.
Brittany, 28, also shared two cute group shots from the suite that featured Swift posing beside Kylie, along with Delevingne, 31, and other Chiefs WAGs. “Went there, did that, onto the next,” Brittany wrote over the photos on her Instagram Story, referring to the Chiefs’ win and upcoming AFC Championship game against the Baltimore Ravens.

While Travis largely declined to talk to media members about the victory after Sunday’s game, saying he would hold off until his press conference later this week, the NFL star did comment on his brother’s big night out.
“We’re athletic, man,” Travis said with a laugh about Jason’s leap from the bleachers back into the stadium’s suite, according to Chiefs Radio Network sideline reporter Josh Klingler.
Amid the epic celebration after his brother’s touchdown, Jason helped a young fan holding a sign that read, “Buffalo Bills + Taylor Swift – Best First Game Ever” to catch the attention of the “Karma” singer when he lifted her up to the suite’s window.
In an appearance on the Today show Tuesday, the girl’s mother, a longtime Bills fan, described her daughter as being in “absolute heaven” and “the happiest I’ve ever seen her” following the special moment.
