Kylie Kelce addressed one of the NFL’s most talked-about rivalries ahead of the Cowboys’ Thanksgiving Day matchup against the Chiefs. The Philadelphia Eagles fan and wife of Jason Kelce did not hold back as she shared exactly how she feels about the Dallas Cowboys and who she is supporting when her brother-in-law, Travis Kelce, takes the field.
Kylie Kelce has a message for Cowboys
Kylie Kelce, a dedicated Philadelphia Eagles fan, expressed strong feelings toward the Dallas Cowboys following the Eagles’ 24-21 loss after leading 21-0. On her podcast Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce, she addressed the upcoming Thanksgiving Day game where the Dallas Cowboys will host the Kansas City Chiefs, featuring her brother-in-law, tight end Travis Kelce.
“Speaking of Thanksgiving football,” Kylie Kelce said. “Don’t root for the Cowboys and do root for the Chiefs. Let’s go, Uncle Trav… I’m so sick of the idea that the Cowboys are America’s Team. So, they can kiss my ass and, you guessed it, get f***ed.”
Travis Kelce has faced the Cowboys three times in his career, recording 12 receptions for 147 yards and one receiving touchdown. He also scored a rushing touchdown on a four-yard carry, bringing his total to two touchdowns against Dallas.
The term “America’s Team” was first associated with the Cowboys in the late 1970s and remains a point of contention among NFL fans. The Chiefs’ recent success, including three Super Bowl victories and growing popularity, has challenged that notion. Travis Kelce’s prominence and his relationship with Taylor Swift have contributed to increased attention on the team.
The upcoming Thanksgiving matchup is only the 13th meeting between the Cowboys and Chiefs since 1970. Their last game occurred in 2021, while the last game held in Dallas was in 2017, which the Cowboys won.
The NFL scheduled this game on Thanksgiving, anticipating high viewership. CBS will broadcast the game with Jim Nantz, Tony Romo, and Tracy Wolfson on the call. Both teams are in playoff contention, raising the stakes for the matchup. Kylie Kelce is encouraging listeners to support the Chiefs and her brother-in-law.
