Chargers 2024 schedule release hilariously rips Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift for private jet use

Not only do the Chargers take a gentle jab the Kelce Brothers’ New Heights podcast — with a nod to a 13-year-old squirle squirrel related tweet from Travis Kelce’s social media past — but then they showed Kelce and Swift’s Sim avatars boarding Swift’s private jet, which was inexplicably parked right in the middle of the street. That seems like a tremendous safety hazard if you ask me. Of course, Taylor Swift has caught some heat for using her private jet so often during her 2023 Eras Tour, racking up 178,000 miles, according to Martha Ross of The Mercury News.

At least in this case, Taylor Swift wasn’t the only one who was being criticized. Cam Newton, Kevin James, Cleveland Browns fans, Kirk Cousins, and the Patriots dynasty were among the many, many others who were called out.

Travis Kelce vs. the Chargers 

It makes sense that the Chargers social media team would take aim at Travis Kelce. Not only is Kelce the league’s best tight end and a lightning rod because of his relationship with Taylor Swift, but he’s also racked up a pretty impressive career resume against the Chargers, dating back to when the Bolts were still playing in San Diego.

According to StatMuse, in 18 career games against the Chargers, Kelce has tallied 100 receptions for 1,223 yards and 9 touchdowns. Over the last few years, Kelce’s output against the Chargers has gone up a level. In just his last six games against the Chiefs’ AFC West rival, Kelce has hauled in 49 catches for 730 yards and 8 touchdowns.

This season, assuming that the 34-year-old tight end can stay healthy, Kelce will likely pass Chargers legend Antonio Gates on the list of most receiving yards ever by a tight end in NFL history. As things stand right now, Tony Gonzalez and Jason Witten are the only two tight ends in league history who have more career receiving yards than Kelce or Gates.
