In a lighthearted twist, Jason Kelce, the 36-year-old center for the Philadelphia Eagles, encountered a warm welcome at The Wieners Circle in Chicago. A sign at the hot dog stand cheerfully proclaimed, "Welcome Taylors Boyfriends Brother."
This playful gesture is a nod to Jason's brother, Travis Kelce, who has been romantically linked with pop sensation Taylor Swift since September. The rumors started when Swift attended a Kansas City Chiefs game against the Chicago Bears on September 24.
The Wieners Circle shared photos on Instagram showcasing the illuminated sign beneath its logo, along with images of Jason queuing up to sample one of their hot dogs. The captions humorously referred to the situation as "Mean (Wiener Circles Version)," cleverly alluding to Swift's 2010 song "Mean" from the album Speak Now.
Adding to the jest, the eatery crafted another witty sign for Jason that read, "Welcome The Other Kelce Brother."
According to CBS News Chicago, Jason Kelce was accompanied at the hot dog stand by Thursday Night Football analyst Andrew Whitworth.
Travis Kelce's romance with the 33-year-old pop star has been garnering attention, with sources revealing a deepening connection between the two. In late October, an insider shared with PEOPLE that their relationship was "quickly turning more serious," emphasizing their shared work ethic, appreciation for life and careers, and strong family values.
Since making their romance public in mid-October, Travis and Taylor have been photographed holding hands in New York and enjoying dinner together in Kansas City.
While initial plans suggested Travis might support Swift on her Eras Tour in Argentina during his NFL bye week, he attended his teammate Patrick Mahomes' charity gala in Kansas City during the singer's first show in Buenos Aires. The couple still has two shows remaining in the Argentine capital.
On the recent episode of the podcast "New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce," Jason playfully probed his brother about potential plans.
When asked if he had anything exciting planned, Travis responded nonchalantly, hinting at going somewhere sunny due to his pale skin.
Jason then teased about going south, closer to the equator, with Travis jovially playing along with the idea of going south of the equator.
