The iconic Easter tweet of Travis Kelce from 2010 continues to light up timelines every Easter, becoming a cultural moment fans love to revisit. Even 14 years later, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end’s humorous shout-out to Jesus remains one of the most celebrated tweets in NFL Twitter history. Now, Kelce is finally breaking his silence and reacting to the tweet that refuses to fade, along with his brother, Jason Kelce.
In a recent episode of the New Heights podcast, hosted by Travis Kelce and his older brother Jason Kelce, the viral tweet took center stage once again.
Jason brought up the post, calling it, “potentially the greatest tweet ever tweeted on Easter day. This is the best thing ever.”
Back in April 2010, Travis Kelce posted, “Happy Easter to all. Shout out to Jesus for taking one for the team… Haha.” Since then, the tweet has been brought back almost every year by fans. Reacting to it now, Travis Kelce admitted, “This is so f*****g dumb,” poking fun at his younger self.
Speaking of the tweet, Jason Kelce noted, “My favorite part of it is the ‘Ha ha’ at the end.” The Kansas City Chiefs’ star player quickly came up with an explanation, saying, “Listen, I wanted to make sure everybody knew I was having a good time joking about this.” He added that he “couldn’t take it too serious [seriously].”
Jason Kelce didn’t hold back in supporting the sentiment, adding, “Listen. We don’t give Jesus enough shout-outs for taking one for the team if we’re all honest.” The NFL star agreed, quipping, “He’s a team player.”
Both Jason and Travis Kelce continued their thoughts on the topic as the former opined, “He’s the the epitome of taking one for the team. He died for our sins.” The latter nodded, saying, “He’s the best leader out there.”
Fans of the Kansas City Chiefs star also agree that the tweet was definitely an iconic one. Gushing over the duo’s comic discourse on their podcast episode, one user commented on X, “This Easter tweet is in the Top 5 best Travis Kelce tweets, but this whole conversation has me.”
