If you\u2019ve been following the Kelce family universe \u2014 and let\u2019s be honest, if you\u2019re reading this, you absolutely have \u2014 the Feb. 6 episode of Kylie Kelce<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s Not Gonna Lie podcast<\/a> delivered everything you could ask for. Travis Kelce<\/strong><\/a> sat down with his sister-in-law for a wide-ranging conversation that touched on his nieces\u2019 adorable demands, a sly nod to his offseason availability, and the engagement to Taylor Swift<\/strong> that has the entire Kelce family buzzing.<\/p>\n And yes, Travis dropped a line about January that Chiefs Kingdom is going to feel in their bones.\n<\/p>\n When Kylie asked how his body was holding up after all the aerial acrobatics his four nieces demand of him, the 36-year-old tight end had a response that will land differently depending on how your postseason went.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re good now,\u201d he reassured while pretending to bench press the air. \u201cI didn\u2019t do anything in January, so the shoulder\u2019s doing great now. I feel like I\u2019m always making up for the last time I saw them to now on all the airtime they\u2019re missing out on, so I have to get it back up where it should be.\u201d<\/p>\n For a player whose Januarys have typically been synonymous with deep playoff runs, that\u2019s a telling \u2014 and self-deprecating \u2014 acknowledgment of how the Chiefs\u2019 season wrapped up. It\u2019s the kind of dry humor that makes Travis such a compelling personality off the field, and it\u2019s the type of candid moment that makes Kylie\u2019s podcast such a draw for fans who want to see the man behind the helmet.<\/p>\n The shoulder, at least, is doing great. Silver linings.<\/p>\n The heart of the episode centered on the hilarious dynamic between Travis and the four daughters he shares with his brother Jason\u2019s family. Kylie shares four daughters with husband Jason Kelce<\/strong> \u2014 Wyatt, 6, Elliotte, 4, Bennett, 2, and Finn, 10 months \u2014 and the picture she painted of what happens when Uncle Travis walks through the door is genuinely delightful.<\/p>\n \u201cAir time. They want to be anti-gravity,\u201d Travis shared. \u201cThey want to be in the air flying, just acting as planes.\u201d<\/p>\n If you\u2019ve ever watched Travis Kelce celebrate a touchdown with the unbridled energy of a man who truly loves what he does, you can probably picture exactly what this looks like: a 6-foot-5 NFL tight end launching small children skyward while they squeal with joy. It tracks.<\/p>\n Kylie broke it down even further with the kind of specificity only a mom juggling four kids under seven can provide.<\/p>\n \u201cAll of the kids are\u2026well, Bennett thinks your legs don\u2019t work. That\u2019s ridiculous, right?\u201d the 33-year-old joked to her brother-in-law. \u201cAnd the big girls are like, \u2018You can throw us for seven hours straight.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n Two-year-old Bennett apparently believes Travis\u2019s legs are nonfunctional \u2014 a genuinely hilarious image \u2014 while the older girls treat him like a human roller coaster with no closing time. Though Travis didn\u2019t share when this playful habit started, Kylie admitted she loves how comfortable her little ones are around him and Taylor, 35.<\/p>\n Beyond the laughs, Kylie took a moment to genuinely praise Travis for the way he shows up for her daughters. It\u2019s the kind of family dynamic that makes the Kelce clan so easy to root for.<\/p>\n \u201cYou come in and give them your undivided attention,\u201d she recalled. \u201cYou get down on the floor with them and you play whatever they ask you to play. You really engage with them in a way that, and I think you already know this because you do it, they don\u2019t care what you bring.\u201d<\/p>\n She continued: \u201cYou can bring candies and toys and that\u2019s all fine. But what they\u2019re the most excited about is getting thrown around.\u201d<\/p>\n\u2018I Didn\u2019t Do Anything in January\u2019<\/h2>\n
