George Kittle and Pat McAfee mock Travis Kelce's towering height over Taylor Swift in hilarious viral moment
Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's appearance at the Stanley Cup Final sparked humorous reactions, particularly regarding their perceived height difference (Getty Images)
Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift made headlines again, not just for their relationship, but for what seemed like a major height illusion that caught the attention of NFL personalities Pat McAfee and George Kittle.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end looked towering next to Swift during their appearance at the Stanley Cup Final—and the jokes were too easy for McAfee and Kittle to pass up.
George Kittle and Pat McAfee hilariously exaggerate Travis Kelce's height while with Taylor Swift at NHL Finals
During a recent episode of The Pat McAfee Show, McAfee couldn't help but poke fun at the visual from the couple's date night in Sunrise, Florida, where they attended Game 4 between the Edmonton Oilers and Florida Panthers.
'I don't know if you know this.
Travis Kelce is now 10 feet tall. Did you see that last night?' McAfee joked. 'Taylor was wearing huge heels… this dude might have grown this offseason. He might be 10 feet tall. Because Taylor is very tall.'
Kelce officially stands at 6-foot-5, while Swift is listed at 5-foot-10. But next to her in platform heels, the difference still looked staggering. McAfee's joke quickly snowballed when San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle jumped in to confirm the absurdity.

'He is definitely 10 feet tall,' Kittle added with a laugh.

Tight End University
Never one to waste a branding opportunity, Kittle turned the conversation toward his annual Tight End University, the offseason training summit for NFL TEs. He used the viral moment to crack another joke about player development.
'He teaches us that, but he hasn't taught us at Tight End Uni how to grow in your 30s. Hopefully that's a topic this year,' Kittle said, poking fun at his own height limitations as he ages.
Swift, who wrapped her record-shattering Eras Tour in late 2024, now has time to attend Kelce's games and events without juggling a hectic tour schedule. A source told People that she's expected to be more visible throughout the NFL season, with a freer calendar allowing her to support Kelce more often.

WWE Hall of Famer slams TKO over Roman Reigns, Jey Uso treatment
Image via WWE W WE legend Rikishi has launched a scathing attack on the company's creative direction, accusing them of disrespecting his family's legacy - especially Roman Reigns and Jey Uso. The outspoken Hall of Famer voiced his frustrations on his Off The Top podcast, addressing recent decisions that he believes undermine the contributions of The Bloodline. From rumors of a pay cut for Reigns to Jey Uso's short-lived title reign, Rikishi believes WWE is making a 'big mistake' in how it's treating members of the Anoa'i dynasty - a family widely regarded as the greatest in pro wrestling history. Rikishi defends The Bloodline's legacy Rikishi's outrage was sparked by rumors suggesting WWE and its parent company, TKO, are considering reducing Roman Reigns' salary during his current break from TV. For Rikishi, such talk is deeply disrespectful, considering the impact Reigns has had on WWE's success in recent years. Standing On Business!- Rikishi Fatu - Off The Top - Episode 63 'Do the math - WrestleMania, Raw, SmackDown - who's on those posters? Roman Reigns. Jey Uso. Trinity Fatu. That's the Bloodline,' Rikishi said. 'You want to move on, fine. But don't erase our history. We've given our soul to this business.' He added, 'We've never been the problem, we've always been the source. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Memperdagangkan CFD Emas dengan salah satu spread terendah?

Short title reign fuels frustration The controversy escalated after Jey Uso lost his WWE World Heavyweight Championship to Gunther on the June 9 episode of RAW, just 51 days after winning it at WrestleMania 41. Fans were upset, and so was Rikishi. AND NEW! | Gunther dethrones Jey Uso for World Heavyweight Title: Raw highlights, June 9, 2025 He criticized WWE's writers for failing to support Jey's title run, saying they should be 'fired' for not being able to build around a rising champion. 'Would you have done this to John Cena or Randy Orton?' Rikishi asked. 'You give the title, and then give them nothing to work with? That's not fair.' Rikishi also pointed to past instances, like Jey's short Intercontinental Title reign - to show a pattern of what he calls missed opportunities for his son. He believes Jey's rise was earned through hard work, fan support, and years of dedication. With WWE seemingly moving in a new direction, questions loom over the future of The Bloodline. Fans and family alike are watching closely. Rikishi's fiery comments have ignited public debate, and it remains to be seen whether WWE will course-correct - or keep sidelining one of its most iconic families.

Russell Wilson is QB1 for now — But Jaxson Dart could define the New York Giants' 2025 season
Photo byWhen the New York Giants kick off their 2025 season, all eyes will be on veteran quarterback Russell Wilson. But while Wilson may be the team's starter, he might not be the long-term story. Behind the scenes, there's growing intrigue around rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart—a player many believe could define the franchise's future. With a high-stakes season ahead, pressure is mounting not just on the quarterbacks, but on the organization itself. For general manager Joe Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll, the success or failure of this quarterback dynamic could very well dictate their future in New York. Russell Wilson begins 2025 as the Giants' starter — but Jaxson Dart could seize the role if results falter early The New York Giants made a bold move earlier this offseason, trading back into the first round to draft Jaxson Dart—signaling they weren't content to rely on short-term answers. Though Wilson, the former Super Bowl champion with Seattle, is set to open the season under center, it's clear the clock is ticking on his starting role. Wilson, now entering the twilight of his career, has embraced the New York spotlight. He was frequently spotted courtside at Madison Square Garden during the Knicks' playoff run and has made no secret of his love for the city. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Yet despite the warm welcome and celebrity status, his time in New York may be more of a bridge than a destination. Bleacher Report analyst Brent Sobleski shared his perspective on the matter on June 13, stating, 'The New York Giants were determined not to be pigeonholed into selecting a quarterback with this year's third overall draft pick. They didn't. However, the approach didn't stop them from drafting a signal-caller who will eventually determine the team's path.' Sobleski believes this season will be a defining one for Dart. Jaxson Dart Waits in the wings as Russell Wilson leads a pivotal season for the New York Giants Wilson may have the veteran experience, but Dart is the one with long-term potential. 'Wilson enters the situation with the expectation of being the starter, but this season is all about Dart and what he shows,' Sobleski said. That sentiment is echoed by many in the league, especially given the team's recent struggles. The Giants have endured two straight seasons of regression, and the front office knows improvement is non-negotiable. ESPN's Dan Graziano weighed in during the offseason, predicting a turning point: 'Unless the Giants are scoring points and winning games at a surprising rate early in the season, it feels inevitable that they reach a point where it's time to see what Dart can do.' That makes 2025 a true test for everyone involved—from the quarterback room to the coaching staff. The Giants are hoping Wilson can lead them to a strong start, but if wins don't come quickly, Jaxson Dart's audition could begin sooner than expected. This isn't just about who takes the snaps—it's about shaping the team's identity moving forward. With Wilson's legacy already written and Dart's just beginning, New York finds itself at a pivotal crossroad. One way or another, 2025 will reveal what kind of future the Giants are building—and who they're building it around.
