Travis Kelce has shared a story about a specific early morning phone call involving his brother, Jason Kelce, that elicited a notable reaction from Taylor Swift.
During a recent episode of their podcast, "New Heights," Travis recounted how Jason, even in retirement from the NFL, was participating in a "Squatober" challenge and brought weights with him on a visit to Kansas City. Jason inquired about the available weight plates in Travis's basement, and subsequently decided to bring his own 50 pounds of weights.
Travis described this as "the most meathead thing" he had ever witnessed his brother do. The situation escalated when Travis received a call from Jason at 7:30 a.m. Travis initially feared a worst-case scenario, such as an injury, when Jason asked him to "come spot me." The brothers shared a laugh as Travis realized it was for a bench press, not a squat, which he admitted he would not have been able to assist with.
As Travis was leaving the room, Swift, who was present, remarked, "This is fucked up." Travis, however, responded optimistically, "Nah, it’ll be good. It’ll be good!"
The anecdote has generated reactions on social media, with users commenting on the quintessential sibling dynamic and Swift's candid response. Some X users speculated about potential lyrical inspiration for Swift and noted the relatable nature of an older brother demanding a spot at an inconvenient hour.
