Travis Kelce might give the Kansas City Chiefs’ fans cause for concern ahead of Super Bowl LIX as the 35-year-old tight end sends his backing to the Philadelphia Eagles as the two sides prepare to clash in New Orleans.
Fortunately, Arrowhead Stadium frequenters can rest easy knowing the three-time NFL champion was being sarcastic and will lock in at the Caesars Superdome on Sunday, February 9 although he admitted he does have a soft spot for the Eagles.
That’s due to his brother, Jason, being a legend with the franchise and inspiring them to two Super Bowl appearances; one in 2017 when they beat the New England Patriots and the second in 2022, when they were stopped by the Chiefs.
“Go Birds baby,” Travis told They Call It Late Night. “I’m a Jason Kelce fanatic, dude. I love that guy, man.
“I still got all the gang greens from your Super Bowls and your run in Philly. I still got some Philly pride man. I’m wishing the best for those guys. You know, it’s uh… Go Birds.”
Kelce an unknown in Super Bowl LIX
After a challenging 2024/25 campaign with Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid’s Chiefs, Kelce turned it on in the AFC Divisional Round game against the Houston Texans by making 117 receiving yards and a touchdown.
He then had a quiet performance against the Buffalo Bills at the Arrowhead Stadium in the AFC Championship game by making just 19 yards on two receptions (four targets), leaving his involvement in the offense uncertain.
The bad news for Jalen Hurts’ Eagles is that means nobody is really sure what to expect from the three-time Super Bowl winner, who proved he still has what it takes to compete despite being tipped to retire at the end of the year.
