Jason Kelce Confesses He’d Be ‘Terrible’ on The Traitors, But Believes His Brother Travis Kelce Would Excel

Jason and Travis, THE TRAITORS

Jason Kelce thinks he knows which of the Kelce brothers could betray and finesse their way through a murder-mystery scenario at a Scottish castle — and it’s not him!

During the Wednesday, Sept. 25 episode of New Heights, the podcast he hosts with his brother Travis Kelce, the two discussed what the outcome would be if they had the opportunity to appear on the hit Peacock competition show, The Traitors.

The series, hosted by Alan Cumming, features around 20 reality TV stars who compete in a murder-mystery set-up in an effort to identify the three designated “traitors” on their cast, all in a bid to win a $250,000 prize.

“Dude, you would f—— crush it on Traitors,” the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 34, told Jason, 36, who responded, “Traitors? I’m terrible,” before refering to a time he’d taken part in a version of the game while climbing.

After admitting he’s “an awful liar,” Jason was told by his brother that, in the series, there’s a chance to use “that to your advantage.”

“But I’m not savvy enough,” Jason said. “We did it one time, climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro. I was voted… right away they knew. They’re like, ‘Jason’s a traitor’ and I was like, ‘No I’m not!’”

Travis then raved about the show itself, telling his bother that it was “funny to see everyone have to defend themselves when the entire table is pointing at them saying they’re a traitor,” referring to the series’ round table — where the competitors try to call out and banish the “traitors” on the cast.

“And to see how someone reacts under pressure. I f—— love it. And sometimes people just f—— fold,” he said.

“Dude, I’m taking notes,” Jason added. “There’s some people that say some stuff where you’re like, ‘Wow, that’s a good one.’”

As Travis explained to his brother, he just wants to “play the game.”

“I do think I’d be better as a faithful,” the Kansas City Chiefs star said, refering to the non-traitorous members of the show’s cast.

Jason, in response, told him he’d be “good in either one of ’em.”

“If you can be a lead actor in an FX original series,” Jason concluded referring to Travis’ appearance in Grotesquerie, before Travis laughed that “lead actor” was a “f—— stretch.”

The cast for the forthcoming third season of The Traitors was revealed back in June, and it features big names in the world of reality TV including Chrishell Stause of Selling SunsetVanderpump Rules‘ Tom Sandoval and Big Brother legend Danielle Reyes.

Earlier this month, the series took home its first Emmy in the outstanding reality competition program category, as Cumming thanked Scotland, where the show is filmed, for being “such a beautiful costar.”
