In a hilarious and heartfelt exchange on the podcast ‘Bussin’ With The Boys’, Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce dropped a bombshell about his family dynamics. Apparently, Travis admitted that he was his parents’ “second favorite” behind his older brother, Eagles great Jason Kelce. Without hesitation, Travis voiced, “100%” when asked if Jason was the favorite. Rather than feeling sighted, Kelce’s tone was full of admiration, leaving listeners amused and touched by his candid honesty. A true loving bond between brothers that is displayed in a podcast of their own.
Jason Kelce, the “most feared” sibling
Travis unpacked his brother’s legendary reputation growing up: a multi-sport high school star who dimnated football, hockey, and band. He recalled that Jason would routinely rack up “30 tackles a game” by halftime, and then march on with the orchestra, leaving no doubt why he was the hero of the household. But perhaps most striking was Travis’s confession that Jason was “the most feared guy in the school, a statement that perfectly captures just how imposing the older brother Jason could be.
These family memories paint a picture of two brothers fueled by fierce competition. Not only did Jason serve as the academic, athletic, and social paragon, he also kept a firm hand in Travis, who humorously admiths Jason once “beat my a**”. Yet, it was this rigorous sibling rivalry, displayed on anecdotes of who got the front seat or first bite, that forged the unbreakable bond the duo share today.
Travis and Jason Kelce had NFL ambition
Despite growing up in Jason’s shadow, Travis turned that competitive spark into fuel for his own success. Echoing their mother Donna’s comments about constant sibling competition, Travis confirmed that everything in the Kelce household was a contest, whether chasing touchdowns or seats in the car. That fire lives on: during the same podcast, he didn’t hesitate when asked his top-off field priority. His answer? “Win another Super Bowl“. No speeches, just unwavering focus after a disappointing Super Bowl LIX loss and a dip to career-low stats in yards and touchdowns.
By aiming for a new ring with the Chiefs, Travis is proving that being “second favorite” didn’t hold him back, it sharpened him. For a star who’s already secured three Super Bowl titles (LIV, LVII, LVIII) and 10 Pro Bowl nods, that sibling-fueled mindset remains his secret weapon, even if he willingly cedes the favorite-child spotlight to Jason.
