Travis Kelce wants Jason Kelce to join him on the field at Super Bowl LIX.
“Of course I wish Jason was out there. Being at the mountaintop with your brother is something special that I’ll never forget. Obviously, being so close to him retiring, I wish he would have played another year,” Kelce, 35, told reporters at a press conference on Monday, February 3. “But he’s very content where he is in life right now, and I’m happy as hell for him. He gets to be around his family and his baby girls a little bit more.”
Travis added: “I’ll go out there and try and represent the family as best I can.”
Travis and the Kansas City Chiefs will play the Philadelphia Eagles — Jason’s former team — in New Orleans’ Caesars Superdome on Sunday, February 9. In 2023, the tight end faced off against his Jason, 37, in Super Bowl LVII, which ended with the Chiefs defeating the Eagles 38-35. Jason retired from the NFL last year.
As of last week, the elder Kelce brother was undecided about which team’s merch to wear at the big game.
“We need to get you a mom jacket [or] a jersey,” Travis told Jason on the Wednesday, January 29, episode of their “New Heights” podcast, referring to their mother Donna Kelce’s split Eagles and Chiefs clothing pieces. “We got to get a cut-and-sew action here where we can get you cheering for both teams like mom’s done, year in [and] year out.”
While Jason appreciated the idea, he clashed with it on principle.
“I can’t wear red,” he stated. “I can’t wear it. I can’t bring myself to it.”
Instead, Jason was considering an alternative to the Chiefs’ signature color.
“I’m gonna wear my ‘New Heights’ Big Yeti shirt,” he said on the podcast, adding that he’d don the yellow rather than the red version of the shirt. Travis, for his part, supported his sibling’s sartorial choice.
Jason made sure to clarify that he’ll be rooting for both the Eagles and the Chiefs come Sunday.
“Obviously, you’re my brother. I’ll always root for my brother. That’s the reality of it. All right,” he said, adding, “I would be lying if I said I don’t want the Eagles to win. You know what I mean? I want them to, but I also want Travis Kelce to win. So, that’s a long-winded way of saying I just want to see a good football game, and whoever wins, I’m going to be happy for that guy.”
