Travis and Jason Kelce dine out in LA amid Webby Award nomination
Travis and Jason Kelce were spotted stepping out for dinner in Los Angeles this week as their fame continues to skyrocket.
Travis has been enjoying some downtime with girlfriend Taylor Swift at her $25million Los Angeles mansion after the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl victory and the end of the most recent leg of her international Eras Tour.
Meanwhile, Jason has taken his first steps into retirement after announcing he was hanging up his cleats following an incredible 13-year career in the NFL at the beginning of last month.
However, it appears it was back to business for both brothers as the Philadelphia Eagles legend joined Travis on the West Coast for an apparent business dinner Monday.
The NFL icons are no strangers to the spotlight for their achievements off the field but amid the Kansas City Chiefs tight end’s high-profile romance with Taylor Swift and the success of their New Heights podcast their fame has reached dizzying levels over the past 12 months.

And it appears the brothers could be plotting their next move as they were captured leaving a business dinner with Travis’s manager Aaron Eanes.
Travis, known for his fashion sense and flair, kept his look casual as the three-time Super Bowl winner stepped out in a green sweater and grey tracksuit pants, accessorized with a white cap.
Meanwhile, Jason cut an equally relaxed figure as he rocked his signature flipflops – which made an appearance on game days through rain and shine last season – a grey hoodie and black tracksuit pants.
Their dinner comes just over a week before their live New Heights show takes place at their alma mater, the University of Cincinnati, on April 11.
The show has enjoyed great success over the past two years, earning them nominations in the Best Co-Hosts and Best Sports Podcast categories at the Webby Awards on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, Travis’s girlfriend Taylor Swift’s Instagram message encouraging her 283 million followers to register to vote was nominated in the best creator or influencer category. The website she directed her fans to – the nonpartisan Vote.org – recorded more than 35,000 registrations, according to the organization.
Winners for all awards will be announced May 13 at a ceremony hosted by ‘Late Night with Seth Meyers’ writer and comedian Amber Ruffin.
Eanes, who runs A&A Management and signed Kelce as the company’s second client with his brother Andre, has previously discussed making the Chiefs tight end into a bigger star than Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson.

According to The New York Times, Kelce’s managers have a carefully curated plan to make him globally famous and it could even include a film about the three-time Super Bowl winner.
The Eanes brothers spoke to NYT last year about their plan to build Travis’s profile beyond football – and there is thought that he could one day swap Kansas City for Hollywood.
The publication says ‘film scripts have been passed around’ and that game shows are also under consideration.
Meanwhile, amid their joint success on New Heights and Jason’s foray into life after the NFL, it appears the retired center could also be looking to establish a business empire of his own.
The Super Bowl winner is already believed to be in high demand with multiple networks clamoring for his services after stepping away from the field at the end of the NFL season.
Jason has reportedly been courted to follow in Tom Brady’s footsteps and make the jump from the gridiron to the broadcasting booth by a few major networks, including ESPN.
According to The Athletic, ESPN is determined to add Kelce to Monday Night Football next season as part of a shake-up to its pregame panel.
NBC, CBS and Amazon Prime are also keen to snap up the recently-retired star, who featured on the latter’s Thursday Night Football when the Chicago Bears hosted the Carolina Panthers back in November.

Yet the broadcast booth is not the only option Jason could pursue with WWE reportedly already reaching out to the Eagles legend about stepping into the ring.
He was reportedly approached by the wrestling organization to appear at WrestleMania 40 in Philadelphia this weekend.
Jason may have made the cross-country trip to Los Angeles with Travis and his pop superstar girlfriend Taylor after the loved-up couple celebrated Easter with the future Hall of Famer and his wife Kylie.
Taylor and Travis hopped across the country to spend Easter Sunday with Jason, Kylie and their family at their home in Pennsylvania.
Taylor took another step into the heart of the Kelce clan as DailyMail.com exclusively revealed Monday that Kelce’s adorable nieces, Bennie, 1, Elliotte, 3 and Wyatt, 4, were introduced to their Auntie Tay for the first time over the weekend.
Travis and his Pennsylvania-born pop princess jetted in from Los Angeles Sunday morning for the flying visit to Jason’s home in the upscale enclave of Haverford Township just nine miles outside Philadelphia city center.

Exclusive images obtained by DailyMail.com show their car parked in the driveway of Jason’s charming stone home which has a wraparound deck and is set on an acre of landscaped gardens complete with large patio and swimming pool.
Travis and Taylor are believed to have stayed at the Four Seasons after enjoying the day with Jason and his family.
They flew back to the west coast Monday morning landing at Burbank airport and deplaning amid a thicket of umbrellas around 1:30pm local time with Jason seemingly joining them.
Travis was spotted disembarking from a private jet in the same green sweater that he wore to dinner.
