Travis Kelce proudly said ‘Go Birds!’ in the latest New Heights episode and Eagles fans loved it

Travis Kelce Eagles New Heights (Organization) Birds Rob McElhenney Chiefs Jason Kelce Kaitlin Olson

Despite the two teams meeting in last year’s Super Bowl and looking like serious contenders to repeat that matchup, few would consider the Eagles and Chiefs as actual rivals. They simply don’t play each other often enough for that.

And with brothers Travis and Jason Kelce playing for the Chiefs and Eagles respectively, the two root for each other when they aren’t opponents. Still, that doesn’t mean they’ll be regularly shouting “Go Birds!” or “Go Chiefs!” in public … unless they have a good reason for it.

During Wednesday’s edition of the New Heights podcast, Travis had a fantastic reason to shout out his brother’s team.

Eagles superfan, actor and Wrexham AFC co-owner Rob McElhenney joined the podcast to discuss the auction for Kylie Kelce’s letterman’s jacket, which raised money for the Eagles Autism Foundation. That was when McElhenney pointed out that his $62,000 bid wasn’t enough. Instead, McElhenney’s wife and Always Sunny co-star Kaitlin Olson jumped in the frame and revealed that she outbid McElhenney with a $100,000 bid of her own. What a plot twist.

Given the great cause, Travis was pumped about the news and said, “Go Birds, baby!”

Jason, Rob and Kaitlin all loved to hear that … as did Eagles fans on X/Twitter.

This was how Twitter reacted
