Travis Kelce Considers Buying Stake in Kansas City Chiefs, Awaiting Brother Jason’s Decision
The Kelce brothers’ podcast, “New Heights,” has become a phenomenal success, amassing over 2 million followers on YouTube. Fans have found immense entertainment in listening to the brothers discuss football and a wide array of other topics.
In a recent episode, the Kelce brothers broached the intriguing subject of potentially acquiring stakes in the teams they have played for. Jason Kelce expressed interest in purchasing minority stakes in the Philadelphia Eagles, even considering stepping away from his television career to do so. Meanwhile, Travis Kelce humorously expressed his desire to buy a stake in his team, the Kansas City Chiefs. This discussion stemmed from a Bloomberg report about Philadelphia Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie possibly selling a minority stake in the team.
For the first time, Jason and Travis Kelce are teaming up as significant owners and operators of a business: Garage Beer.

Jason remarked on the potential sale by stating, “Eagles are for sale,” and elaborated on Lurie’s contemplation of selling a minority stake. Travis responded with, “I’d rather try and buy the Chiefs or be a minority stakeowner in the Chiefs.” Jason pointed out the financial challenge, noting, “I don’t think we can afford it. If I were Jason, I’d tell Travis to just ask for a loan from Taylor Swift, their billionaire sister-in-law.”
Jason added, “I will back out of the TV deal right now if you tell me I could own the Philadelphia Eagles.” However, Travis highlighted the complexities of buying a minority stake, referencing Tom Brady’s challenges in purchasing a stake in the Las Vegas Raiders due to conflicts with his TV contracts. The engaging banter and unique insights into the NFL have only added to the podcast’s appeal, making “New Heights” a must-listen for sports fans and beyond.
