NFL star Travis Kelce may be a three-time Super Bowl champion, but even champions aren’t safe from a good old-fashioned internet throwback—especially when their brother is the one pulling the receipts. On the April 23 episode of the New Heights podcast , the Kansas City Chiefs tight end was hilariously roasted by his older brother, Jason Kelce , for a resurfaced tweet that took fans on a nostalgic—and slightly cringeworthy—trip back to 2010.
Travis Kelce finally reacts to his viral Easter tweet
The now-deleted tweet, originally posted on Easter Sunday during Travis’ college days at the University of Cincinnati, read: “Happy Easter to all. Shout out to Jesus for taking one for the team. Ha ha.” While innocent in tone, the post resurfaced this Easter and quickly went viral, amassing thousands of interactions before being taken down.
Jason, 37, wasted no time poking fun at the tweet during the podcast. “We have potentially the greatest tweet ever tweeted on Easter day,” he teased before quoting the post. Travis, now 35, cringed at his past self and exclaimed, “This is so f------ dumb.” Despite his embarrassment, he maintained the tweet was meant to be lighthearted. “Listen, I wanted to make sure everybody knew I was having a good time joking about this,” he clarified, adding that he “couldn't take it too serious.”
Jason, ever the comic foil to his younger brother, doubled down on the defense of the message. “We don't give Jesus enough shout-outs for taking one for the team if we're all honest,” he said. Travis quipped in return, “He’s a team player.” The banter continued with Jason calling Jesus “the epitome of taking one for the team” and Travis concluding, “He’s the best leader out there.”
This isn’t the first time Travis’ old tweets have come back to haunt him in the most hilarious way. Last year, another tweet from 2011 went viral where he shared his bewildering squirrel encounter: “I just gave a squirle a peice of bread and it straight smashed all of it!!!!” Misspellings and all, the tweet was a snapshot into a younger Kelce’s unfiltered thoughts. “I was just using Twitter as like a diary,” he admitted on an earlier podcast episode.
As fans laugh along with the Kelce brothers, it’s clear these moments are more than just funny internet fodder—they offer a genuine peek at Travis’ evolution. Now a global celebrity, thanks in part to his high-profile relationship with Taylor Swift , Travis remains grounded, unafraid to laugh at himself.
With the couple currently enjoying private downtime following Swift’s Eras Tour and Kelce’s off-season, a source close to them told PEOPLE that they are “very serious and in sync.” The insider added, “They are making the most of their time off together... It’s a special time for them.”
In the end, it’s these unscripted, humorous moments that make Travis Kelce all the more relatable. Whether he’s dodging defenders or deleted tweets, he does it all with charm—and a brother who never lets him forget it.
