What Olympic Sport Do Jason And Travis Think They Would Excel In?
Fans are dying to know: What Olympic sport do Travis and Jason Kelce think they could snag a gold medal in? But there’s a twist – it can’t be a sport they’ve played professionally, so American Football is off the table.
Instead, the two opted for a sport played during the Winter Olympics–Curling. “Me and Jason have kind of been on this, and I’ve never actually played it,” Travis admitted. “Let’s just go and see how good we are at curling.”
Jason then chimed in, telling his brother, “I’m a good sweeper, I don’t sweep often, but when I do it, it’s good.” After a few seconds of laughter, Travis responded, “We’d be really good at being cheeky with it. Our understanding of angles and speed, we’d kill it.”

In addition to Curling, Jason thinks Corn Hole and Beer Pong should become Olympic sports because the Kelce Brothers would certainly win Gold at those backyard games.
Two-man Bobsled was also mentioned, but Travis quickly shut that down as he revealed, “Neither one of us can drive. I don’t know if that’s the best [idea].”

The retired NFL star, who showed up in true Paris fashion, rocking a blue beret and a USA blue crew neck, echoed his wife’s comments, sharing how much it meant to finally attend a Summer Olympics game after years of being tied up with NFL pre-season practice.
“When we found out that we were going to have an opportunity to go to this, the more we thought about it, we were like, ‘Let’s take advantage of it now that we can actually do it,’” Jason said. “We love sports, we love competition, we love world events. This is such a unique place where the entire world gets to come together and bond over competition and sports.”
