Travis Kelce can have quite literally landed himself in fiancée Taylor Swift’s bad books.
During a Tuesday, February 2, teaser clip for the next day’s episode of Travis, 36, and older brother Jason Kelce’s podcast, “Latest Heights,” the Chiefs tight end fell back in his chair, landing with an audible crash on the bottom.
A red-faced Travis, who had been enthusiastically laughing at a comment made by Jason, 38, regarding the trotting out of “best in show” dogs, joked after his fall, “Taylor’s going to kill me.”
As each brothers cracked up over the mishap, and Travis regained balance on his chair, Jason laughed even harder at his younger brother’s candid comment regarding Swift, 36.
A caption that accompanied the teaser clip, shared via X, that read, “Warning: This week’s episode is dangerously funny. Tomorrow. Super Bowl preview with two special guests.”
Travis’ light-hearted comment comes just two weeks after he joked that the pop star would “kill” him for yet one more reason. While sharing fan reactions to a fresh “Latest Heights” merch drop, a listener commented, “I can’t imagine not one of the latest hoodies are called ‘Latest Heights of Man-Hoodie,’” which drew blank expressions from Travis and Jason.
When the duo’s intern reminded them that the comment was a reference to Swift’s “The Lifetime of a Showgirl,” as “Latest Heights” is name-dropped on the album’s “Wood,” Travis offered a tongue-in-cheek response.
Jason Kelce was shut down on “Latest Heights” when he tried to make polite chit-chat together with his brother, Travis Kelce. “For the subsequent week, a minimum of take your mind just a little elsewhere,” Jason, 37, told his brother on the Wednesday, November 5, episode of their joint podcast. “What are you doing? Anything fun [or are] […]
“I didn’t understand that,’ he said. “Taylor’s gonna kill me for not knowing that.”
Despite the jokes, Travis and Swift, who got engaged in August 2025 after dating for 2 years, have enjoyed quality time together in recent weeks. Stepping out for a rare public date night in Los Angeles on January 12, the pair were seen heading to dinner at Beverly Hills restaurant Funke. Captured in photos obtained by TMZ on the time, Swift rocked a gray blazer while Travis wore a green, brown and tan bowling shirt as they exited a vehicle and entered the restaurant.
The outing comes amid speculation over the longer term of Travis’ football profession, with the NFL star rumored to be edging towards retirement. While no official announcement has been made, his teammates looked as if it would kick off farewell celebrations through the January 4 Chiefs game against the Las Vegas Raiders.
In keeping with an article published by local news outlet Kansas City Star after the sport, which saw the Raiders win 14-12, third-string quarterback Chris Oladokun prolonged his hand out to Travis within the locker room. “Man, thanks,” Oladokun, 28, reportedly said to him.
Moreover, the outlet reported that linebacker Cole Christiansen also said to Travis: “Whatever happens, it’s been an honor twiddling with you.”
Travis said on the January 7 episode of “Latest Heights” that he’s looking forward to “being a daily human” once he’s done playing football. “Every season ends for me, I just put my feet up and I be a human, because I’ve been putting my body through the wringer for the love of it,” he told Jason through the show.
He continued, “I do enjoy playing football and the physical aspect of it, I feel there’s something about feeling the damage and tear of the football season, just preparing for a game knowing your body’s f***ing beat down. I feel there’s something to it, it makes you only feel like a mangy animal that’s out here just finding a approach to survive.”
