As Taylor Swift brought her electrifying Eras tour to Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium, a surprise from the Kelce family quickly stole the spotlight. The Kansas City Chiefs‘ star tight end, Travis Kelce, was noticeably absent from the concert where his family-including his brother Jason Kelce-attended. But the real stir wasn’t about who was there, but what happened during the show.

Amid the flashing lights and roaring crowd, Jason Kelce, known for his high energy on the football field, appeared to have taken a much quieter approach to the concert experience. He was seen sitting down, eyes seemingly closed, in a viral photo that led to a flurry of speculation.

The post was shared by none other than Jason’s former Eagles teammate, Beau Allen, who jokingly captured the moment. Many fans thought Jason had drifted off during Swift’s performance, prompting widespread laughs and comments online. But, a close source was quick to respond, downplaying the situation as a playful misunderstanding. “It was a joke. Jason’s hand is in the air in this pic. Beau was just messing with him,” the source clarified. Nevertheless, the internet couldn’t resist the humor in the situation.

The sleeping controversy soon became the topic of lighthearted debate on the Kelce brothers’ podcast, New Heights. When Travis and Jason recounted childhood memories, an argument ensued over whether Travis had ever fallen asleep during a game. But, the Chiefs tight end insisted he never had, calling on their father, Ed Kelce, to weigh in. Ed’s response? A confession that not only had he fallen asleep during events, but that it happened regularly. The revelation caused Travis to burst out laughing, saying, “That’s where we get our sleeping from; he can fall asleep at a f– rock concert!”

This sparked even more jokes, with fans in the comments recalling moments from Jason’s past. Some even pointed to his first date with now-wife Kylie Kelce, where, hilariously enough, he also fell asleep. As the internet chuckled over these stories, Jason’s nap became a running joke in the comments, with one fan sarcastically writing, “Reliving his first date night with Kylie. So romantic. Good luck carrying him.”

Travis Kelce was absent from Taylor Swift’s show

But while the entire Kelce family, including their mother Donna Kelce, enjoyed the show, one person remained notably absent-Travis Kelce himself. His absence from Swift’s concert only fueled rumors of tension between the pair, especially with his continued busy schedule as the Chiefs remain dominant in the NFL season.

Despite Kelce’s no-show, Swift still managed to acknowledge him in her own signature way. During one of her performances, she surprised fans by tweaking the lyrics of her song “Karma.” Instead of the usual “Karma is the guy on the screen,” she sang, “Karma is the guy on the Chiefs, coming straight home to me,” sending the crowd into a frenzy. It wasn’t the first time Swift had made such a change for Kelce either, with similar shoutouts during earlier stops in her Eras tour.

While the Chiefs tight end has been riding the wave of his team’s success this season, Swift’s subtle tribute added to the intrigue surrounding their relationship. And although there’s no confirmed conflict between the two, his decision to skip the concert has certainly left fans curious.
