Kirk Cousins trolls Travis Kelce for his back hair: ‘God bless Taylor Swift’

Kirk Cousins couldn’t help but make fun of Travis Kelce for his hairy back. 

The Falcons quarterback weighed in on the photos of the Chiefs tight end that circulated recently during an interview with E! News earlier this week. 

“God bless Taylor Swift for being good with that,” Cousins said. “That’s awesome. Good for her.”

Cousins assumed it was “just genetics” that led to Kelce’s fuzzy look.

“Thankfully, I don’t have to deal with that,” Cousins joked. “But I’m in a locker room a lot. That’s just a part of life. It is what it is.”

Kelce was spotted on Tuesday in Miami, where he at one point took off his black T-shirt to reveal a hairy back as he stepped into the back of a car. 

Last year, Kelce’s brother, Jason, told a story about his sibling’s furry body before Travis revealed a hilarious nickname he earned during his college days in an episode of the pair’s “New Heights” podcast.

“When Trav was at Cincinnati, he would play basketball in the playground quite a bit,” Jason said of his brother’s time with the Bearcats. “And anyone who has ever played pickup basketball, you know there’s shirts and skins.”

Travis said he sported a “big beard,” “long hair” and “the chest hair, back hair, arm hair, leg hair” at the time.

“It’s just a big ole Yeti out there, man,” Travis continued. “All the homies on the court were calling me ‘Big Yeti.’”

Aside from getting spotted in South Florida, Kelce and Swift have had a quiet offseason together after Kansas City’s 40-22 loss to the Eagles in Super Bowl 2025 this past February.
