With the Truist Championship set to begin on Thursday in Philadelphia, it was only fitting that Eagles legend Jason Kelce participated in Wednesday’s Truist Championship Pro-Am, which features Philadelphia stars like Kelce alongside PGA Tour players.

While Kelce was honing his golf skills, he took a moment to share a hilarious story on the course with PGA star Shane Lowry. Lowry revealed that he dressed up as Jason's brother, Travis, for Halloween to make his daughter—who's a huge Taylor Swift fan—happy.

When Jason approached Lowry and saw the photo of him dressed in a No. 87 Chiefs jersey with shoulder pads, Lowry shared the story, prompting a heartwarming response from Kelce. 

After Lowry mentioned, "My daughter is obsessed with Taylor," Kelce laughed and replied, "Yeah, who’s not?" referring to the widespread Taylor Swift fandom.

Fans reacted to Kelce's comment: 

"Guy’s a national treasure," a fan said

"Love this," another fan posted

"This is great #87," someone else added. 

Another fan remarked, "Taking this as a Tayvis crumb of a crumb." 

One more fan commented, "Jason so real for for that who’s not obsessed with Taylor comment." 

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have quickly become one of the biggest celebrity couples in the world, thanks to their individual successes in two distinct professions.

Swift wrapped up her historic "Eras Tour" at the end of 2024 and into 2025, solidifying her place as one of the most followed and influential artists in the world. 

Meanwhile, Kelce has cemented himself as one of the greatest tight ends for the Kansas City Chiefs, with three Super Bowl titles, including a trip to the big game this past season, which Swift attended.
