Why Travis Kelce Had ‘the Worst’ Christmas Despite Spending Time With Taylor Swift: ‘I’ve Had Better’
The football star reflected on a difficult Christmas Day on his podcast, ‘New Heights.’
DEVON FORWARD14 HOURS AGO
Travis Kelce and his brother Jason are known for being quite honest about things on their podcast, New Heights, and during a discussion about Christmas this year, Travis admitted that it was “the worst.”
The Kelce brothers had a special holiday episode featuring fellow members of their family, including Jason’s wife Kylie. While there, Kylie asked Travis about his Christmas, to which he said, “The worst. I’m not gonna lie, I’ve had better.”
Luckily, it wasn’t all bad, as he amended, “But, it ended well, with good Christmas cheer and great people, and that’s always gonna save Christmas, no matter if you lose to the Raiders or not.” Travis was referencing the Kansas City Chiefs’ game against the Las Vegas Raiders on Dec. 25, which ended in a loss.
“Glad it’s looking up,” said Kylie, as Jason let out a laugh.
Travis didn’t share any more details about how he celebrated Christmas, but his girlfriend Taylor Swift was at the game to support him, and the two were caught sharing some PDA after the disappointing loss.
During the new podcast episode, both Travis and Kylie also managed to slip in what appeared to be a few sly references to Swift. After Kylie talked about heading to West Philly to get a Christmas tree, Travis asked, “West Philly. Did you guys go out to Reading or Lancaster?”
“I heard there was a tree farm out there,” replied Kylie, seeming to quickly catch on as she referenced Swift’s song “Christmas Tree Farm.” The track talks about Swift’s childhood growing up on a Christmas tree farm in Reading, Pennsylvania.
Later on, Kylie also smoothly said to Travis, “I believe you might like cats now,” which Swifties took to be a reference to Swift’s three cats. Considering Kylie’s cheeky smile as she said it, they might be right.

It seems Taylor Swift isn’t the only one in her family who knows how to give their all to a performance. Swift’s brother Austin Swift made quite an impression on Travis Kelce during the Chief’s Christmas Day game against the Las Vegas Raiders—both with his sentimental Christmas gift and with his method of delivery.
On a bonus episode of his New Heights podcast, Kelce and sister-in-law Kylie Kelce said Swift’s brother was a regular Scott Calvin (IYKYK) at Christmas. Not only did Austin dress in a full Santa Claus suit for the occasion, he also delivered some hard-hitting childhood nostalgia when it came to Travis’s present—a VHS tape of 1994’s Little Giants, Travis’s favorite football movie.

“He actually made me feel like a child because his gift to me was straight out of the bag,” Travis told Kylie. “It was in the Santa sack, whew, [he] whipped it out and handed me a VHS of my favorite football movie of all time.”
Kylie and Travis agreed that Austin “killed it” at the holiday game. “That was a full commit and I respect that,” Kylie said of Austin’s Santa costume.
True Swifties may have caught that this was not the only time Taylor Swift was referenced in this special podcast episode. While Kylie was describing her family’s annual tradition of driving to pick up their Christmas tree in Pennsylvania, Travis Kelce asked if they ever made it out to Reading or Lancaster. “I heard there was a Christmas tree farm out there,” he noted with a smirk.
