The former Philadelphia Eagles center has also seen how "The Fate of Ophelia" singer has had a positive impact on Travis' life. 

"I think this felt different," Jason said earlier this year. "What also felt different is just the way he talks about her and talked about her from the moment he was with her. You could tell how much he really, really liked her, right from the get-go. I think that the level early on in that was something that was very eye-opening to me when we first had discussions."

On this week's episode of the Kelce brothers' podcast New Heights, part of the episode focused on the "coolest" thing Jason has witnessed since his brother started dating Swift. 

Jason Says His Brother and Taylor Swift Have Changed Football

When speaking with NFL on Fox reporter Erin Andrews and Prime Video's Charissa Thompson, Jason discussed how Travis and Swift's relationship and engagement have attracted more women to the NFL. 

"You just mentioned Taylor and how much she's gotten girls into the sport and dads and daughters together," he said. "That's one of the coolest things I get when people talk about Taylor and Travis and hearing from dads or hearing from daughters about that. It's an awesome thing."

Travis agreed with his brother. 

"Those little girls that maybe didn't have an interest in football and then sit down because it's her ... all of a sudden the dads have a bond with their daughter over her, like, [it's] so special," he said.

According to Billboardfemale viewership of NFL regular-season games has increased by 9%, the highest level since the league began keeping records in 2000.

Andrews and Thompson Have Said They'll "Take the Credit" for Travis and Taylor

The two reporters, during an episode of their Calm Down podcast in 2023, urged Swift to give Travis a chance—a moment they later joked about with Jimmy Fallon last year. 

"We're friends with him, and how could you not be?" said Andrews. "The guy's a time. He had mentioned on his podcast that he went to the show, had wanted to meet her afterwards, didn't get the chance to. We just started talking about it on our podcast, saying, 'Taylor, do this for America. Date him.' The guy, he's not ugly by any means." 

"We'll take the credit," Thompson added. "I just love both of them, and I'm so happy to see them happy."
