Tony Gonzalez did something bad ... and Thomas CaldwellJason Kelce was ready for it.

With rumors circulating about a link between his brother Travis and pop superstar Taylor Swift, Jason was put on the spot after his Philadelphia Eagles' win over the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday night.

On the postgame show, Gonzalez, a Pro Football Hall of Famer, jumped on the grenade and posed the question to Jason.

"I have a 15 year-old-daughter and she's a big fan of a certain pop star," Gonzalez said to Jason. "You have a brother and I've been hearing rumors that there's maybe some stuff. Can you comment?"

Taking it in stride as others on set laughed (including Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts), Jason carefully deflected the inquiry about his brother, a two-time Super Bowl champion with the Kansas City Chiefs.

"Everybody has been infatuated with Travis' love life, so I don't really know what's going on there," Jason responded. "I know Trav is having fun and we'll see what happens with whoever he ends up with!"

The Kelce brothers famously faced off in last season's Super Bowl, putting their mother Donna in the spotlight in the weeks leading up to the Chiefs' victory.

Swift won nine MTV Video Music Awards earlier in the week, including artist of the year, best pop song of the year and video of the year. Her "Eras" tour has dominated the pop culture scene this year, and a film of her live show is set to hit theaters in October.

Travis missed the Chiefs' Week 1 loss to the Detroit Lions with a knee injury but Kansas City coach Andy Reid said Friday the tight end would be back on the field this weekend.
