NFL star Jason Kelce has voiced his concern over the interest in his brother Travis’ relationship with pop star Taylor Swift, saying the paparazzi’s intrusion into the couple’s lives has raised “alarms”.
Travis Kelce, a two-time Super Bowl winner with the Kansas City Chiefs, has been in a relationship with Swift for the last few months, and the new power couple has dominated NFL headlines.
Jason, who plays for the Philadelphia Eagles, said the attention on his brother’s relationship has been “weird”. The two Kelce brothers faced off in last year’s Super Bowl, which was won by the Chiefs.

”On one hand, I’m happy for my brother that he seems to be in a relationship that he’s excited about, that he is genuine about. But there’s another end of it where it’s like, ‘Man, this is a lot’,” he told NBC Sports.
“There’s paparazzi talking about him fuelling his car before the game today and I’m like, is that really necessary information to share?
“This is another level of stardom that typically football players don’t deal with.
“And so on one hand, really, really happy for my brother and where he’s at in his current situation with Taylor.
“But on the other hand, there’s some, I think, alarms sometimes with how you know, over-in-pursuit people can be.”
Swift has been pictured at a number of the Chief’s recent games, sitting alongside Kelce’s mother Donna and Chiefs star Patrick Mahomes’ wife, Brittany.
Despite his concerns, Jason, backed his brother to deal with the extra attention, provided it doesn’t cross any lines.
“Overall, he can deal with some of this,” he said.
“As long as it’s not becoming a threat to his safety and things like that.”
The Chiefs have enjoyed a strong start to the NFL season, currently sitting atop the AFC West standings with a 6-1 record.
