Jason Kelce Denies Taking a Nap at Taylor Swift’s ‘Incredible’ Miami Eras Tour Show

Jason Kelce is setting the record straight after the internet teased him for supposedly taking a snooze during Taylor Swift‘s Eras Tour show in Miami, which the retired Philadelphia Eagles center attended sans Travis Kelce over the weekend.

On the latest episode of New Heights posted Wednesday (Oct. 23) — five days after Jason and his family caught the pop star’s first of three performances in Florida — the elder Kelce brother cleared his name when discussing a viral photo of him sitting down during the show, his eyes closed. “What is that all about?” Travis teased at first. “The show is absolutely electric. It’s the greatest show that’s ever been on stage, and you’re over here falling asleep?”

“Travis, you know I didn’t take a nap,” Jason responded, explaining that he’d actually been fully entranced by Swift’s music when the photo was taken. “I’m just sitting here, and I’m just, like, feeling it. I’m tapping my thigh, in the moment, listening to the song. Then, all of a sudden, I go on Twitter and I see this f–king picture. I’m like, ‘What the f–k! I’m not even sleeping!'”

To further prove his point, the Monday Night Countdown anchor emphasized that the “Anti-Hero” singer’s concerts would have been nearly impossible to sleep through. “This Miami show was incredible,” he told Travis. “It was on another level. I texted you halfway through it like, ‘Dude, this rain. Tay is killing it.'”

“When Reputation came on and she came out in the new outfit and the rain was coming down, the place could’ve f–king erupted,” Jason continued. “I mean, it did. The amount of energy was insane.”

“I had all of the FOMO in the world with the entire family and a lot of our friends being there,” added Travis, who was busy helping the Kansas City Chiefs defeat the San Francisco 49ers over the weekend. “I had a lot of friends that were also down by the stage … they were saying the same thing that you’re saying, that the Miami stadium was just incredible. I wish I was there.”

As mentioned by the brothers, Swift’s shows at Hard Rock Stadium were indeed memorable. Her first and third performances were made more intense by heavy rain falling on the venue — “Shout out to Tay Tay for powering through a few rain shows there,” Travis gushed on the podcast — and fans went wild when the 14-time Grammy winner debuted a brand new Reputation outfit for the first time in the Eras trek’s nearly two-year run.

“I knew I was going to be savoring every moment up on that stage but the bewildering passion of those crowds really blew my mind,” Swift reflected of the shows on Instagram Oct. 22. “I got some new outfits, and it’s always nice when the crowd notices that 😁 You guys are just the best.”
