Jason Kelceis close to hisbrother Travis' girlfriendTaylor Swift, but don’t expect him to be dishing out tickets to her shows anytime soon.

On the latest episode ofThe Rich Eisen Show, which aired on Monday, Nov. 25, Jason, 37, spoke about how it’s been a “whirlwind of events” over the past couple of years for him and his family.

ThePhiladelphia Eagles alummentioned the attention his and Travis’New Heightspodcasthad been getting, as well as theKansas City Chiefs winning the Super Bowlagain earlier this year andTravis dating one of the biggest pop starsout there.

“So, would you say more no to people asking you to do something for them professionally, or asking for tickets to a Taylor Swift concert?” Eisen asked the former NFL star.

Jason responded, “Thankfully I don’t get a lot of people reaching out for Taylor Swift tickets…it is an immediate no. But, I don’t get a lot of that.”

Jason pointed out his stance on Taylor tickets wasn’t because the musician, 34, hadn’t offered him any to give out to his nearest and dearest.

“Taylor has said she will take care of anybody that I ask for,” the dad of three — soon to be four — insisted. “She does say that, she’s great, but I still say no to everybody.”

“I’m not gonna be the one to impose on that, I don’t wanna put that position out there…” he explained. “She’s been nothing but lovely to our family, she’s a wonderful person and I don’t want that to kind of be a dynamic.”

“She’s giving you the clear path to the tickets, and you’re just shutting it down?” the host questioned, as Jason clarified, “Yeah.”

“Makes sense, because after a while, once, twice, three [times…]” Eisen admitted, as Jason commented, “Where’s the line? Exactly, so I’m not even broaching the line, I’m staying away from the line.”

“There’s a line in that where ‘I’m a real tough kid. I can handle my s—,’ " Jason told the podcast. “Ellie’s 3 years old and she says, ‘I’m a real tough kid. I can handle my stuff.’ That’s all I hear on a daily basis, because it gets a laugh out of me every time.”
