Travis Kelce is coming off a season where he had the worst production of his career in both receiving yards and touchdowns since his rookie year, when he played just one snap on special teams. He finished with 823 receiving yards and three touchdowns on 97 receptions.
While the Kansas City Chiefs star flirted with retirement, he has since committed to playing a 13th season. He noted that he couldn’t feel satisfied retiring after losing in the Super Bowl. Kelce and his older brother, former Philadelphia Eagles star center Jason Kelce, host one of the most popular sports podcasts, “New Heights.”
The podcast, along with their legendary careers, has led to plenty of fanfare. A fan recently showed off a tattoo of the younger Kelce brother, which led his older brother to chime in.

The New Heights podcast official X account shared a photo of a fan’s tattoo of the younger Kelce brother, posting, “92%ers are the most dedicated fans in the world (Yes this is real).”

Jason chimed in on the photo choice, writing, “I mean 10 out of 10. That’ll pop some rockets.”

Jason is no stranger to fans getting shocking tattoos. The former Eagles center recently saw a fan tattoo him in a similar position. He responded to the image with a series of posts, initially writing: “I’m not sure if I should be offended or flattered.”
He later added, “I think it’s more flattered, it’s a generous bird, good sized head.”

It was later revealed that a New York Giants fan named Lauren Matarese-Philpott was behind the tattoo of Jason. She lost a bet with her husband, an Eagles fan, and had to get a tattoo of the former center.
It’s unclear who received the tattoo of the younger Kelce or what the reasoning was behind the image. It’s possible, however, that Matarese-Philpott’s tattoo inspired the latest one. As he gears up for another run at the Super Bowl, maybe the tattoo can be a source of inspiration and luck for the future Hall of Fame tight end. Chiefs fans certainly hope so.
