Travis Kelce’s new contract extension just made him the highest-paid tight end in the NFL, but despite his staggering salary, he’s still a scrub to Jimmy Kimmel.
The late-night TV host congratulated Kelce, 34, on his multimillion-dollar, two year deal with the Kansas City Chiefs during his monologue on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” Tuesday before asking his studio audience, “Can you imagine being in a relationship where you make $34 million and you’re still the broke boyfriend?”
Kelce’s massive payday comes on the heels of Forbes minting his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, its newest billionaire. Citing the singer’s blockbuster Eras Tour, real estate portfolio and music catalog, the business magazine estimated her net worth to be a cool $1.1 billion.
Poking fun at the financial discrepancy between the couple, Kimmel, 56, joked Swift, 34, would dismiss Kelce’s contract as “gum money.”
The comedian continued, “Another weird thing about dating Taylor Swift is you can be one of the great players of all time, and this is the reaction you get to your contract extension.”
Kimmel then showed a screenshot from Kelce’s tearful video Monday announcing his career news. Swifties were quick to post messages of support, calling the football player “baby girl,” “sweet boy” and “pookiest pookie.”
“I’m not sure if he’s a football player or a kitten,” the Emmy winner cracked.
Kimmel went on to congratulate Swift for being both a billionaire and “the first artist in history to occupy all of the Top 14 spots on Billboard’s Hot 100 list.”
