‘The Cowboys Aren’t’: Travis Kelce and Jason Question America’s Team Status

Travis Kelce has a message for Cowboys Nation, jump ship and join the Kingdom.

In the latest episode of their podcast New Heights, Travis and Jason Kelce took a direct shot at the long-standing narrative that the Dallas Cowboys are “America’s Team.” The Kelce brothers made it clear: they think that title now belongs to the Kansas City Chiefs.

Jason Kelce Weighs in on Cowboys Questions America’s Team Status

While discussing NFL team popularity, Jason said,

“Are the Chiefs now officially America’s team? Well, I mean, listen, the Cowboys aren’t.”

It’s a bold claim, especially considering the Cowboys still lead the NFL in average home attendance every season, despite not having won a Super Bowl in nearly three decades. Their fans remain some of the most loyal and vocal in all of sports.

Travis Kelce chimed in with a tongue-in-cheek invitation to Cowboys fans:

“Just be loyal to us, baby… We’ll treat you right over here at Chiefs Kingdom.”

It’s hard to argue the Chiefs haven’t earned the right to make that pitch. With three Super Bowl appearances and two titles in the past five seasons, Kansas City is dominating on the field, and winning over fans off of it.

Mahomes and Swift: Chiefs Popularity Skyrockets

There’s also a cultural factor at play. Patrick Mahomes’ superstardom has helped grow the team’s national appeal, but it was Travis Kelce’s relationship with global pop icon Taylor Swift that sent things into overdrive.

From viral moments to “Swifties” showing up in Chiefs gear, Kansas City is now in the pop culture spotlight in a way few NFL teams ever reach.

While the Cowboys may still own the nostalgia factor, the Chiefs are building a new dynasty and a new identity. Whether that means dethroning Dallas as “America’s Team” is still up for debate, but one thing is clear:

Travis Kelce is ready to welcome you into the Kingdom.

Travis Kelce Is Deeply Hurt By President Donald Trump’s Comments On Swift

In other news, Travis Kelce is reportedly reeling after U.S. President Donald Trump blasted his girlfriend, Taylor Swift. Trump has openly admitted that he “hates” Swift, especially after the singer/songwriter actively endorsed and supported his political rival, Kamala Harris, during last year’s election campaign.
