Travis Kelce, Jason Kelce Explain Why They Love to Play Football on Christmas Day

Both Kelce brothers will be in action on Christmas this year, but they won’t be playing each other.

Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce will tackle any topic on their podcast, but the conversation always comes back to football.

On a recent episode of New Heights, the Kelce brothers spoke about what it’s like to play a NFL game on Christmas Day. Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs will be in action against the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday, while Jason Kelce and the Philadelphia Eagles will host the New York Giants.

Both Kelces were excited to take the field on the holiday.

“I love it. I absolutely love it man," Travis told his brother. “It’s magical. That’s one thing Christmas does—it brings people together. What better way to enjoy Christmas Day than football at Arrowhead baby.”

Travis recalled playing with the Chiefs on Christmas Day in 2016, and how nice it was to have so many family and friends in attendance for a big win.

Given that both Kelce brothers are in action on Christmas this year, it will be tough for the whole family to celebrate together as they did growing up. That said, should Taylor Swift be in attendance in Kansas City again for the game, Travis will have plenty of company.
