The official X account for the New Heights podcast, co-hosted by Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and his brother Jason Kelce, found itself at the center of controversy on Saturday night after posting an image of Travis that many fans found too revealing.
The post, celebrating the Chiefs’ victory over the Houston Texans, featured a photo of Travis with his arms outstretched and a caption that read, “Job not done… but W,” referencing Kansas City’s ongoing push to secure the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoffs.
However, fans quickly noticed an unintended detail in the picture that appeared to expose more of Kelce than the admin likely intended. Within minutes, the post drew widespread attention, with fans flooding the comments to demand its removal.
Fans React to the Photo
Responses ranged from humor to outright disbelief, with one fan joking that the image would surely give Jason Kelce some comedic material for their next podcast episode.
“New Heights deleted that post, gone but never forgotten,” one user quipped after the post was taken down.
Another fan remarked, “New Heights deleted a tweet that had a picture of Travis that showed off his ‘package’ lol.”
The podcast’s social media team quickly acted, deleting the post to avoid further backlash, but the incident became a trending topic among NFL fans and social media users alike.

Kelce Shines Despite the Mishap
The controversy didn’t overshadow the Chiefs’ success on the field. Travis Kelce contributed five receptions for 30 yards during Kansas City’s 27-19 win over the Texans. While he didn’t manage to break the franchise touchdown record—remaining tied with Tony Gonzalez at 76—Kelce’s presence was vital as the Chiefs improved to 14-1 on the season.
This was the Chiefs’ final home game of the regular season at Arrowhead Stadium, where Kelce’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift, returned to cheer him on after missing several games due to her touring commitments.
A Busy Week Ahead for the Chiefs
The Chiefs now face a tight schedule, heading to Pittsburgh for a Christmas Day showdown against the Steelers. While it remains unclear if Swift will attend—she has yet to travel for any of the Chiefs’ road games this season—the stakes remain high as the Chiefs aim to maintain their dominant form heading into the playoffs.
The team will close out the regular season on January 5 against the Denver Broncos before setting their sights on a historic third consecutive Super Bowl title.
Fashion Showdown: Travis vs. Taylor
Saturday’s game also showcased the couple’s flair for fashion. Taylor Swift arrived at Arrowhead in a bold red fluffy jacket, paired with a black hat and boots, stealing the spotlight from her stylish partner. Travis, never one to shy away from a fashion statement, donned a Louis Vuitton cap and a matching fluffy jacket earlier in the day.
While the deleted post may have caused a stir, it’s unlikely to overshadow Kelce’s contributions on the field or the Chiefs’ pursuit of NFL history. The New Heights podcast may even turn the moment into lighthearted content for their next episode, keeping fans entertained both on and off the gridiron.
