Jason Kelce predicts Travis will win Kids’ Choice Award ‘by a f–king landslide’ thanks to Taylor Swift
Travis Kelce’s Kids’ Choice Awards win is inevitable, according to Jason Kelce.
The retired Philadelphia Eagles player predicted his brother will win the favorite male Sports star category in Wednesday’s episode of their “New Heights” podcast, crediting Travis’ relationship with Taylor Swift.
“I mean, dude, if it’s kids [voting] you’re winning this by a f–king landslide,” Jason, 36, joked.
He went on to say that his own fan demographic has changed because of his younger sibling’s romance with the pop superstar.
Jason explained that while he used to get stopped by “fat, hairy guys” in public, he now has “14-year-old little girls” approaching him.
“That is, like, where my bread and butter’s at,” he said. “12-to-14-year-old little girls are like, ‘Oh my God, you’re the brother of Travis, dating Taylor Swift.’
“So I don’t think there’s a chance in hell that you’re not winning this award if it’s truly chosen by children,” the former NFL star continued. “Might as well give you the award right now.”
Travis — who was nominated alongside his Kansas City Chiefs teaMMAte Patrick Mahomes, soccer player Cristiano Ronaldo and more athletes — thanked Jason for the vote of confidence.
“I’ll make sure I keep influencing the kids to do the right things in this world,” the tight end, 34, gushed.
Swift, notably, has been nominated for six awards herself this year.
She and Travis have been dating publicly since September 2023.
Jason commented on the “crazy” level of fame the couple experience while speaking to Andrew Santino on the “Whiskey Ginger” podcast last week, saying they can’t be “normal” people.

“[My wife], Kylie [Kelce], and I think we have it bad, and then we go hang out with one of them for a second,” the ex-center said. “This is a whole other situation here.”
He and Kylie, 32, made headlines last month when they politely refused to take a photo with a fan in New Jersey — and were berated by the woman, later identified as Andreé Goldberg.
Jason’s wife went toe-to-toe with the “heated” stranger, telling her she could smell “alcohol on [her] breath.”
Kylie and the ESPN personality have been married since April 2018 and are the parents of three daughters — Wyatt, 4, Elliotte, 3, and Bennett, 1.
