True Eagles fan Kylie Kelce still refuses to wear Chiefs gear, and it’s fantastic

Kylie has stayed true to her Philadelphia roots and her word.

The Kansas City Chiefs hosted the New Orleans Saints for Monday Night Football, and it was a Kelce family affair. Travis Kelce, a tight end for the Chiefs, was on the field, with recently-retired big brother Jason taking on his new desk duty as part of the MNF ESPN crew.

Also in attendance was Jason’s wife, Kylie. A true Philadelphia Eagles fan, Kylie has always refused to wear the gear of any other NFL team, even if it’s for her brother-in-law. On Monday night, Kylie donned a tee-shirt emblazoned with “Alright Nah,” one of the catchphrases from the Kelce brothers’ New Heights podcast.

We love a loyal queen.

Kylie Kelce wants to know what football fans’ biggest superstitions are on NFL game days

Kylie Kelce is leading The Athletic’s fall football superstition swap Campaign for the NFL season kickoff

This year, game days will look a little different for the Kelce family after the legendary center retired from the NFL and took a job as an ESPN analyst in addition to his role on the New Heights Podcast.

Kyle and Jason Kelce will now watch Philadelphia Eagles games as a family, but the true leader of the household will continue some GameDay traditions and superstitions.

A former star athlete in her own right, Kelce always has her gear ready for kickoff and anything Eagles-related.

“Whether I’m at the stadium or out with the kids, this hat’s always on. It’s my go-to for game day, but I’ll rep my team any day of the week. I’m all about team pride, and staying up to speed with The Athletic before kickoff is major—in Philly, we support our teams with our head and heart just the same.”

This season, to help celebrate the world of (ir)rational fan love ahead of Week 1, The Athletic has teamed up with Kylie Kelce to launch the new “Fall Football Superstition Swap” campaign – featuring a watch party, displays in Philly to bring good luck to the city, and free access for your audience to expert football analysis!

A die-hard Philly sports fan and wife of former star center Jason Kelce, Kylie wears her lucky hat for every game to bring good luck to her favorite team. And as we’ve found out over the years, many sports fans are just like Kylie, as new research from The Athletic found that over 70% of football fans who do game-day rituals for good luck truly believe they DO make their team play better. More than a third (37%) of fantasy players change their lineups based on whether they have done their game-day ritual.

Asked about some of her biggest pregame superstitions, the former field hockey star keeps a green hat. She avoids social media on game day, sticking to a simple yet effective routine. As many saw, Kylie stays true to the Eagles. Even when attending Travis’ Chiefs games last year, she didn’t wear any Kansas City gear.

Kylie says that despite her unwavering loyalty to the Eagles, her daughters will continue to cheer for their dad’s team and their uncle Travis’ Chiefs, keeping the family’s football spirit strong.

Jason Kelce’s outfit is perfect.

Jason Kelce is living quite a life after retiring from the NFL.

He’s out with his wife Kylie Kelce in Paris to watch the Olympics, and with the pair taking in field hockey — which she used to play — they decided to take the whole family, per the Associated Press.

“I would say I’ve always wanted to come and see (an) Olympic games,” Kylie told the AP. “When they qualified to come to Paris, I was like, that kind of makes sense. And then when I got to sit down with Ashley and Kelee, it was kind of a no-brainer. … Through and through, it made sense. We’re happy to be here.”

Here’s a photo of them that’s perfect:

Travis Kelce loved Jason Kelce’s anniversary gift to Kylie: A real sword with a hilarious engraving

Jason Kelce got his wife an engraved sword for their anniversary.

Happy anniversary to Jason and Kylie Kelce! The ex-NFL player and his wife apparently celebrated with some gift exchanges, and he got Kylie … a sword.

Not like a play sword. A real one, although on the newest New Heights podcast episode, Jason notes it’s a little dull. But it’s got the funniest but simple engraving: “Happy anniversary, Princess Kyana.” Travis had a laugh and said, “Nice!”

That’s her nickname, which fans absolutely loved. Here’s the clip below, with the talk about the sword, around the 19:30 mark, along with a photo snapped as they recorded and Jason showed off the weapon:

Kylie Kelce had nothing but wonderful things to say about Travis and Taylor.

Kylie Kelce and Taylor Swift have gotten along swimmingly according to what we’ve seen between Jason Kelce’s wife and Travis Kelce’s girlfriend.

But what does Kylie think about her brother-in-law’s relationship with the worldwide superstar?

We didn’t get too much from her in an interview with the Today Show, but she had this to say with Travis being called “Uncle Trav”: “Ultimately, if Trav is happy, we’re happy. We are always cheering on Uncle Trav. It’s such a treat to be able to do that on and off the field. But it’s been amazing.”

Aw! Lovely! Here’s the clip and her full interview:

“Your accolade studded 13 year career is a direct result of your hard work, determination, and resilience,” she wrote. “I am immensely proud to be your wife and can’t wait to see what you do next. As always, the girls and I will be there cheering you on every step of the way!”

His brother Travis added in a comment: “The greatest to ever do it!! Love you guys!!”

SO GOOD!
