Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will never be the wealthiest member of his relationship with billionaire pop sensation Taylor Swift, but he closed the gap a little bit this week thanks to an absolutely massive media deal for his podcast with his brother, Jason Kelce.
According to a report from the Hollywood Reporter, Travis Kelce and his brother Jason Kelce just signed over the rights to their New Heights podcast to Wondery in a huge nine-figure deal, giving them a massive payday.
“The podcast studio, owned by Amazon, has signed a distribution and an exclusive, ad-sales representation deal with the podcast from the two brothers turned NFL stars. The deal size was described as being in the nine figures and ‘very competitive,’ according to a person familiar with the matter,” Caitlin Huston of The Hollywood Reporter wrote on Tuesday morning.
Obviously, this is some pretty insane news for Kelce, and it led to a lot of reactions on social media.
That’s a lot of cheddar

It’s been a good year for Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce as he began dating pop sensation Taylor Swift, won the Super Bowl for the third consecutive time, and then became the highest-paid tight end in the entire league. Now, he gets this financial windfall, too.
