Jason Kelce is well aware of rumors swirling around that he took a catnap while attending a Taylor Swift concert in Miami over the weekend.

The retired NFL star put the hearsay to bed during Wednesdays episode of the New Heights podcast he hosts with his brother, Travis Kelce, whos dating Swift.

During the episode, the Kansas City Chiefs player teased his older brother about the rumors, asking him: What is that all about?

The show is absolutely electric. Its the greatest show thats ever been onstage, and youre over here falling asleep? he asked incredulously.

Travis, you know I didnt take a nap. I did not take a nap, Jason Kelce insisted before praising Swifts Miami show.

A photo of the retired NFL player seated in the audience, leaning back with his eyes closed, went viral over the weekend, with many Swift fans on social media concluding that he took a snooze during the show.

But Jason Kelce, who also attended Swifts Eras Tour shows in London over the summer, explained on New Heights that he was sitting down momentarily at the Miami show because he was simply feeling the music.

Im just, like, in the moment, listening to the song, and then all of a sudden I go on Twitter and I see this fucking picture, he said as his younger brother laughed. And Im like, Dude, what the fuck?

The former Philadelphia Eagles center then pointed out that the photo shows his hand hovering over his knee as further proof that he was awake and tapping his leg while grooving to the music.
