In case you missed it, Travis and Jason Kelce will be the first brothers to face off in the Super Bowl.
The brothers know this very well and are tired of hearing about it.
Despite making history on Feb. 12, they want to focus on the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles, not Travis vs. Jason.

“It’s been two days and I’m over it…” Eagles center Jason said on the brothers’ New Heights podcast. “I kinda don’t like that we call it Kelce Bowl. Appreciate the support but there are a lot of people involved. Large organizations are involved. … We get asked that question all the time from here until the end of the game and I’m over it already.”
Travis added, “I appreciate you guys calling it the Kelce Bowl, but let’s focus on the Chiefs-Eagles, man.”
It took the brothers a moment to realize the importance of the occasion. The two admitted that as kids they hoped to one day work together for their hometown Cleveland Browns in a Super Bowl.
When the brothers found out how rare it is and even compared it to the lottery, they couldn’t help but marvel at each brother’s dream.
“Did we think it would be both of us? I dont know. I thought it might happen. But I never really expected it to happen until pretty much last week,” Jason said. “I thought, ‘Man, this could really happen. We could really have a ‘New Heights’ Kelce Bowl, and we could actually do that.'”

“It’s wild and kind of surreal,” replied the Kansas City tight end. “I feel like I’ve been asked that question throughout my career. … All my time, the goal has been to play my brother in the Super Bowl. Now that it’s actually happening, it’s like, man it’s kinda sick. …
“When you start throwing numbers like that, it’s definitely cool. I think there’s a lot more brothers in the league than people realize, which is pretty cool especially this year — Pro Bowl, All-Pros, this podcast, so it’s all lined up the way it’s got a man, it’s amazing , Man.
However, Travis begins to regret that he wishes he had played his older brother in the big game.

“Someone needs to send their brother home, man,” Travis said.
On the plus side, they both admitted that their mom, Donna, will be happy with this hilarious exchange either way:
Jason: “Mom will lose, but mom will win too.”
Travis: “She’s a glassy woman.”
Jason: “She is. She will focus on the positive, which is wrong, because she should be there for the brother who loses. She’s a front runner. It’s okay.”

Despite being over a week away from the Super Bowl, Jason didn’t mind a few early gossips.
“I’m not a Chiefs fan anymore, Trav. Sorry to tell you,” Jason joked. “I officially took off my True Color Chiefs sweatshirt immediately after the butker kick. My fandom is closed for the next two weeks. No BBQ, no nothing.”
Oh, and they don’t know exactly who gets their parents’ tickets.

“Are you giving them tickets or do I give them tickets?” asked Jason.
Travis wasn’t sure.
The last pair of brothers to face each other in a professional championship were Scott and Rob Niedermayer in the 2003 Stanley Cup Finals. Scott’s New Jersey Devils defeated Rob’s Mighty Ducks of Anaheim in seven games. The two won the Stanley Cup with the Ducks in 2007.
