He wears red on the field, but star NFL tight end Travis Kelce was wearing Bombers blue on the latest episode of his podcast.

Kelce, who has won three Super Bowls with the Kansas City Chiefs, wore a Winnipeg Blue Bombers jersey while recording the latest episode of New Heights with Jason & Travis Kelce.

Kelce hosts the podcast along with his brother, Jason, a retired Philadelphia Eagles centre.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce wore Winnipeg Blue Bombers quarterback’s Winnipeg Blue Bombers jersey on the latest episode of his podcast.

Travis Kelce wore a No. 8 jersey, the same number Bombers quarterback Zach Collaros — a friend of the brothers — wears. In a video version of the podcast, a Collaros bobblehead figure was visible on a shelf alongside other sports items.

Collaros was roommates with the brothers when they played together at the University of Cincinnati. He was in a suite alongside Travis Kelce’s girlfriend, music megastar Taylor Swift, and Jason during an NFL playoff game between the Chiefs and the Buffalo Bills in western New York in January.

Premier Wab Kinew mentioned the jersey — and Swift — while speaking in the Manitoba Legislative Assembly.

“I noticed Travis Kelce wearing a Blue Bombers jersey today. Travis, you’re just like us. We are huge fans of Zach Collaros. Please consider this an open invitation to visit Manitoba at any time to cheer on the Bombers. And if you come, please bring Taylor.”

The Bombers and the Canadian Football League both posted about Kelce’s jersey choice on the social-media website X, with the club saying it was “absolutely loving the outfit choice.” The league joked that the Winnipeg QB “looks a bit different here.”
