Jason Kelce doesn't have an issue with the NFL promoting Taylor Swift.

Jason Kelce says he has no issue with the NFL media's coverage of Taylor Swift. He discussed his brother Travis' relationship with Swift with Caleb Noe, a reporter for Cincinnati ABC affiliate WCPO 9, in a recent interview.

“The attention is there because the audience wants to see it,” Jason said. “I mean, if people didn’t want to see it, they wouldn’t be showing it. I know that. She’s a world star. She’s the quintessential artist right now in the world, singer-songwriter, immensely talented, unbelievable role model for young women across the globe. So I think that the NFL would probably be foolish not to, you know, show her and be a role model for all the young girls out there."

Throughout the season, Swift has been in attendance at numerous Kansas City Chiefs games in support of her boyfriend, Travis. In turn, the cameras, as well as the NFL's social media pages, have often shifted their focus to the pop star. Check out Jason's opinion on the situation below.
