Travis Kelce, Kansas City Chiefs’ star tight end, has always been known for his playful sense of humor both on and off the field. But recently, in a light-hearted moment that took fans by surprise, he turned the spotlight on his father, playfully blaming him for older brother Jason Kelce’s increasingly “old man” antics.
As fans know, the Kelce brothers are not only NFL stars but also share an incredibly close bond. Jason Kelce, the Philadelphia Eagles’ stalwart center, is a dominant force on the field but off it, fans have noticed his quirky behavior. Whether it’s his hilarious dad jokes or sudden bursts of ‘old man’ wisdom, Jason’s antics have become a fan-favorite.
In a recent interview, Travis was asked about his brother’s behavior, to which he jokingly responded, “Honestly, I think it’s all Dad’s fault. Jason is turning into our old man way too fast!” Fans immediately latched onto the comment, sparking a whirlwind of memes and social media reactions celebrating the brothers’ family dynamic.
Travis continued, adding more playful banter. “Jason’s always had this wise old man thing going, but it’s like the older he gets, the more he becomes our dad. It’s hilarious to see, but sometimes I just want to remind him that he’s not 60 yet!”
For those familiar with the Kelce family, this type of humor is nothing new. Both brothers have frequently poked fun at each other in interviews and social media, showcasing a sibling rivalry that is all in good fun. It’s this playful back-and-forth that has endeared the Kelce brothers to fans across the NFL.
Jason Kelce’s humorous antics haven’t gone unnoticed by fans either. During Eagles’ games, Jason’s sideline behavior, quirky pre-game rituals, and hilarious mic’d up moments have become part of his charm. From his deep belly laughs to wise-cracking one-liners, Jason is always entertaining. As Travis jokingly pointed out, “I’m not even sure if Jason realizes he’s turning into Dad. It’s like he’s embraced the role of the wise old man in our family.”
But it’s not just fans who love it—Jason’s teammates have gotten in on the joke too. Eagles players have reportedly started calling Jason “the old man,” which Jason has accepted with pride. In a recent interview, Jason laughed when asked about the nickname, saying, “If being the ‘old man’ means I get to share some wisdom and make people laugh, I’ll gladly take it. But I think I still have a few years before I’m full-on grandpa mode.”
Even Travis admits that while he loves to tease his older brother, there’s a part of him that appreciates Jason’s more mature side. “Jason’s always been the guy with the wisdom, the one we can all turn to when things get tough. So yeah, I’ll make fun of him for acting like our dad, but at the end of the day, he’s someone we all look up to.”
Fans of both brothers have enjoyed this latest round of sibling banter, with social media ablaze with comments like, “Travis throwing Dad under the bus for Jason’s old man behavior is peak Kelce humor!” and “Jason Kelce is officially in his ‘wise old grandpa’ era, and I’m here for it.”
It’s moments like these that make the Kelce brothers so relatable to fans. While they may be NFL superstars, they still share the same sibling dynamics many of us experience—teasing, banter, and plenty of laughs. As Travis joked in his interview, “Maybe we should just embrace it and start calling him Grandpa Jason.”
In the end, it’s all part of the fun that the Kelce family brings to the NFL world. Whether it’s Jason’s “old man” antics or Travis’s playful jabs, fans can always expect these two to keep things entertaining. And as for their dad? Well, he’s probably just sitting back and enjoying the show, knowing that he’s played a part in shaping two of the most beloved personalities in football today.
So while Jason Kelce may continue his march into “old man” territory, one thing is clear: the Kelce brothers will keep us laughing every step of the way.
