Travis Kelce Got His KFC on Thanksgiving — See His Order

 

Travis Kelce’s Thanksgiving was just as expected.

On Nov. 22’s episode of New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs player revealed that he would “be feasting on KFC because I won’t have anybody here” — and that is exactly what he did.

 

A representative for KFC confirmed to PEOPLE that the chain coordinated a Thanksgiving meal for Kelce, 34, and his friends. The NFL star’s pal Aric Jones even posted a glimpse at the meal on his Instagram story.

Jones’ photo showed multiple boxes of KFC on a stove, and now we know what was inside. KFC revealed the “TK Thanksgiving order” on X and to PEOPLE. It included 56 Pieces of KFC fried chicken, 80 hot & spicy wings, three catering-sized mashed potatoes and gravy, two mac and cheese orders, and two orders of corn.

“We have options for anyone in their KFC era this holiday season and beyond,” KFC’s CMO, Nick Chavez, tells PEOPLE in a statement. “Chiefly, we recommend our finger lickin’ good 2 for $5 KFC Wraps for any solo celebrations …on or off the field.”

On New Heights, Travis and Jason Kelce revealed that they would not be celebrating the holiday together, as Travis planned to be in Missouri while Jason, 36, would be in Pennsylvania with his wife, Kylie, and their three daughters.

Jason extended an invitation for Travis to take a “quick trip” to see his nieces, as Jason said they’ll “have plenty of food.” Jason shared that the Kelce family were not big turkey eaters growing up, and they usually had “pork chops” on Thanksgiving instead.

The brothers’ younger days always involved a game of pickup football at one of the local elementary schools in their neighborhood, the Eagles center said.

Though Travis did not spend Thanksgiving with beau Taylor Swift, his friends believe the relationship is the “real deal,” a source tells PEOPLE.

“Travis’ friends think this is the real deal for him,” the insider said. “They’re still a little shocked by all of it — that he’s dating the Taylor Swift, but they’ve seen how down to earth she is with his friends and family.”
