Let’s be real—being connected to a global superstar like Taylor Swift definitely comes with its perks. Scoring tickets to her sold-out, record-breaking Eras Tour? You’d think that’s a given. But apparently, that’s not the case for Jason Kelce, brother of Swift’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce.

During an appearance on The Rich Eisen Show on Monday, November 25, the former Philadelphia Eagles player made it clear he’s not your hookup for Eras Tour tickets. “It is an immediate no but I don't get a lot of [requests],” Jason admitted.

“She’s great—she’s told me she’d take care of anyone I asked for. But I still say no to everybody. I don’t want to impose on that," he added, “She’s been nothing but lovely to our family, and I don’t want to mess with that dynamic.”

While Jason’s friends aren't privy to having their ticket wishes granted, the NFL alum has made it to a Swift concert himself. Just last month, he attended one of her Miami stops, where a photo of him seemingly asleep went viral. On his New Heights podcast with Travis, Jason was quick to clear the air: “Travis, you know I didn’t take a nap. I did not take a nap.”

Travis had a little fun with the moment, questioning how anyone could snooze during such an “electric” show. Jason explained that he was just soaking in the atmosphere after dancing with his 3-year-old daughter, Elliotte, who eventually joined her mom, Kylie. “I’m sitting there, tapping my thigh, feeling it,” Jason said. “And then I go on Twitter and see this f***ing picture.”

The snap, posted by former NFL player Beau Allen, shows Jason with his hand hovering above his knee. “You can’t sleep with your hand hovering above your knee,” he joked. “I’m not Major Payne. I can’t sleep with my eyes open, let alone with my hand like that.”

So, if you’re hoping to catch the Eras Tour before it wraps up with a three-night run in Vancouver, ending on December 8, here’s some advice: Don’t hit up Jason Kelce. It’s a hard no from him.
