Ed Kelce probably won’t get a tattoos of his son any time soon.
On the latest episode of the “New Heights” podcast, Jason and Travis Kelce discuss the naughty pin-up style tattoo that depicts the former Philadelphia Eagles player posing without clothes as the team’s mascot covers his nether regions.
“Did somebody actually do that?,” he said incredulously. “Permanently? That’s not a henna?”
“F—king looney,” Ed said when they asked him of his immediate reaction to the ink, with Jason letting out a loud cackle.
“I saw that on social media, and that’s cringeworthy. Even without it being on somebody’s arm, just the picture itself,” he continued.
Jason chimed in, saying, “I’ve never heard you use the word cringe, so this is new territory.” The ESPN host joked, “I don’t think I look half bad. If I’m being honest, they did me a solid.”
“This might be the best you ever looked,” Travis quipped.
Jason first addressed the ink on X (formerly Twitter). “I’m not sure if I should be offended or flattered,” he wrote of the art.
“I think it’s more flattered, it’s a generous bird, good sized head,” the athlete said in a second post. Wife Kylie Kelce, meanwhile, was shocked, commenting “Excuse me???” on the original TikTok video.
It turns out, the hilarious tattoo was not the result of a die-hard Eagles fan, but rather a couple’s wager; New York Giants fan Lauren Philpot told TMZ Sports that she lost a bet to her husband, a Philly devotee, during the 2022-23 NFL season.
However, Philpot stated that she has no regrets about the tattoo.
“This is who I am as a person, a bet is a bet,” she said to the outlet. “If I get it covered up, I still went through with it. No, I don’t care. It’s a funny story. It’s something that my husband and I like to do.”
