Inside their new home: Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce reveal their Cleveland mansion on New Heights
He plays it at a high level. Every time he gets an opportunity, he continues to show it. And it’s one of those where like every time a coach like, “What do you think of Willie Lamin?” Well, I mean, he’s he’s a really good player, but like the size is going to come up and it’s going to rear its head. And it continually doesn’t even when he’s playing guys like Jordan Davis and the Jaylen Carter who are massively like more gifted than he am in size.
And I just, you know, I like anybody and respect anybody that can overcome odds like that and be a special player. now. He hasn’t done it in like a starting sense yet. Like still waiting to see what that would look like if that does happen, but just so happy uh to see and that type of effort in person is infectious.
That’s the other thing I think I just love that he’s a Philadelphia Eagle cuz I think he represents what being an Eagle is important and why it’s awesome. >> That’s awesome, man. >> They got a great room. Obviously, the five starters excited with Cam. Uh, Landon Steen, Steen has had a fantastic training camp going up against one of the best like defensive linemen every single day in Jaylen Carter in the NFL and he has battled his ass off.
I think he’s looked outstanding. Lane is obviously back. Jordan Mada can’t wait to see what this run game and system looks like underneath a lot of the outside zone boots like play actions. Um, it’s it was it was a very fun camp to be a part of and watching. Uh, and a lot of other guys stood out to. I’m pointing out Willie just because that was a guy that >> was the guy I asked about.
Yeah, >> that’s who. >> I’m also going to ask you about a guy that just announced this probably his last year, which is uh >> Big Lane Johnson, 65. >> Big Lane Johnson, man. Say it ain’t so lame. [laughter] You can keep going, baby. >> Yeah. I mean, we think one of the one of the best guys to have in the on the in in an organization for as long as he’s been there, let alone uh one of the best guys out there on the football field this year. Yeah.
>> Is going to be Lane Johnson, right? >> I it’s it feels good that Lane is finally, at least locally, I don’t even think it’s still happening nationally, being appreciated for how unbelievably dominant he’s been in the NFL. >> Close. Yeah. >> Yeah. But I it, you know, listen, I made a bunch of all pros, right? because I’m I played the center position and most people couldn’t even name 30 centers in the NFL outside of their starter and maybe one other, right? Like most NFL fans.
[snorts] >> So like I played a position where there’s not a lot of notoriety in most of the guys in the league. And Lane is playing a position where >> people are drafting first round picks every year and there’s big names at it at the tackle position at least for the offensive line. obviously different than like skill positions, but like the most notable player on almost everybody’s offensive line is a tackle.
So, I just feel like he he hasn’t had like the notoriety of being the best pass blocking tackle in the NFL because he fights some of these political things of like first round picks and stuff like that. But like if you look at every metric and like being on an island, drop back pass, how long quarterbacks hold on to the ball, all that stuff, nobody’s really done it at a better level from a pass protection standpoint than Lane Johnson.
And >> you press play on that [ __ ] film, you’re going to see how good Lane Johnson is, dog. So >> there ain’t no [ __ ] arguing that. >> I’m I’m happy that it’s finally being recognized. I’m happy that, you know, if this is his last year, I know he said it’s his last year, but listen, you have some success and maybe you feel pretty good, but pretty good.
>> Regardless, um, he’s had an incredible career. Can’t wait to see the year that he has and, um, you know, it’s just he’s been such a phenomenal player and person in that building. >> Oh, yeah. >> Uh, you know, he was an incredible teammate to me. So, [music] um, you know, excited to watch Lane in his last run. Uh, no doubt about it.
[ __ ] yeah. Yeah. Any of the skill positions uh stand out to you this year at training camp? >> I mean all the ones that you you know are great. I mean we got the opportunity to look at a lot of the receivers uh in the like you know Devonte Smith was hurt for a large portion of the training camp as well as Mai Lemon.
So we got to see Darius Cooper another undrafted guy end up making the roster like have a really good training camp. We got to see uh Dantavian uh is it Dantavian or Dante? Uh >> number 13, >> dude. He’s a beast. >> I was like, where the [ __ ] did that guy come from, >> bro? So highlight of him. >> He was in Green Bay. >> Green Bay.
Yeah, >> he was in Green Bay and he came to Philly. >> Look it up. Yeah, he had some success in Green Bay, too. >> So everybody coming out of Green Bay was like, “This dude’s actually like a player. Like he’s a baller.” And then he got to Philly and even in OTAAS’s guys are like, “Yo, this dude can play, right?” [music] And then he goes on, he shows it for a lot of training camp as well. Like very very skilled player.
So there’s a lot of depth at the receiver position now. Um >> obviously everybody’s talking about Mai Lemon didn’t have the best first preseason game. I mean, it’s one [ __ ] preseason game. People are talking. Can we not? He didn’t even practice for all the training camp. Uh let’s let the kid have a [ __ ] >> pres.
>> Exactly. So regardless, I I I think, you know, they have really, really good skill position players. Saquon Barkley is back. Uh the tight end room, they’ve grown it, right? Like Dallas, now they got the Johnny Munt guy who’s a blocker, like will [ __ ] put his face into people.
I’m excited to see what this offense looks like. I’m excited to see a new under center, more motions, more shifts, more formations, and what the Eagles are going to do cuz they’ve been saying they’ve been holding back a lot in the preseason, right? They don’t want to tip off. It’s their competitive advantage to not show that until the season games start rolling around.
So, I can’t wait to see what this thing is actually going to look like. Uh how Shawn Manion does, how how Jaylen Herz does in a new system like this. Um, the defense is I mean they’ve been pretty damn good already. So, >> all right. Now, >> yeah, they got some pretty good players over there. >> Pretty good coach. Pretty good players.
All right, let’s keep this thing moving. Uh, other big news in the NFL, Aaron Donald is officially back with the Rams after taking a twoyear uh two years to walk away from the game. kind of who knows maybe recharge maybe really think about retirement and maybe never playing again to all of a sudden Miles Garrett is a part of the defensive line room and it’s looking like there’s a lot more reasons to come back I guess I don’t know it’s uh it’s been pretty cool to u follow along the what the Rams have got going out there um a lot of bigname guys
man I know they got my guy Trent McDuffy out there and really just you know look like a veteran team with a lot of proven proven allstars Yeah. I mean, the last time the Rams went out and acquired a Super Team, they won a Super Bowl, right? Like that happened. That’s I mean, they they spent a bunch of money for it and it they had to kind of it took some time to rebuild the ability to build another super team, but they’ve done it again.
Not only a super team, they’ve taken the the the best two physical specimen defensive linemen of my era of football. And then like they still have other like Kobe Turner was a great player for them last year, a really good three technique. Uh Byron, is it Byron Young on the outside and then Fisk, those guys run games really well.
So like I start to think about how they’re going to utilize all five of these guys. Puna Ford, great run stopper. I don’t know how much of the third down he’s going to see with these kind of horses, but I know you Puna, you’re you’re [ __ ] awesome. Respect the [ __ ] out of your game. Anyways, I start thinking like what do you do to do this? Cuz people are like, “Oh, like AD like we we got to get Kel Center.
” Guys, I didn’t do [ __ ] against Aaron Donald. He was a three technique. All I did was literally slide and help THE GUARD. THAT’S WHAT I DID. WE DOUBLE TEAM HIM EVERY [ __ ] SNAP. WE DID NOT LEAVE HIM ONE-ON-ONE. I never played another game. Chris Jones was the only other DTackle really that we played where we’re like, “Hey, we got to make sure we’re limiting his one-on-one reps.
” And it was even magnified where like the only time we didn’t double team, it was like a fiveman protection. It’s like, “I’m sorry, guys. Like, I can’t I got to go over here. I can’t help you.” >> Yeah. Like I if if the quarterback’s hot over here, we’re [ __ ] So I got I got to go this way. [laughter] Like even if it was a fiveman like picture this five big guys, right? Sixman protection with the running back.
Every team in America against any other team you’re making a 5 call or a poker like the the five of us line are going to block the five big guys. >> Yeah. >> We said [ __ ] that. We’re sliding the air DOWN LIKE BACK. YOU GOT THE SAM. YOU GOT THE 275 POUND SAM BECAUSE THAT’S AN EASIER MATCHUP THIS WEEK. >> THAT’S CRAZY.
>> So like this is the reality of like what we went through and how we changed our protections throughout this week. And to be honest, like Wade Phillips, like Staley, uh Raheem Moert, they didn’t do a lot of blitzes off of that to make you worried about not doubling Aaron. If I’m Schula, I’m bringing four away from AD, four away from Miles to make the quarterback and center like respect and just do a little bit of it.
You don’t need to do a lot. Just sprinkle it in one or two times a game. Bring bring a fire ZONE OVER HERE. THAT makes me like, oh [ __ ] I can’t just double >> I can’t just do that. Yeah. >> Yeah. So, I I’ll be very curious. Are they going to put them on the same side, let Fisk and Young run games on the other side? Are they gonna put them both inside? >> They gota I would assume nowadays.
You got to do a little bit of a little bit of everything. >> The bottom line is when you when you get ready to play really good players, you try to limit the one-on-one opportunities, right? So, you slide to an interior player. If you got a great edge player, you can try and slide to him. Sometimes that’s hard when there’s a three technique to get out there to help the tackle.
So, you you put chips and slams. All of these things really bog down what you want to do offensively. It makes you alter what you want to do. Like the best thing you can do against a premier edge rusher like Miles Garrett is to put a tight end in front of him and to chip him because his get off is so good.
Make him a little bit slower off the ball. Now all of a sudden the tight end is slower into his route. We’re losing another guy out there. It’s it just it gunks everything up. But it’s things that you have to do. If I’m getting ready for these guys, I’m still trying to double Aaron. I’m building all the play actions in where I’m getting a double on Aaron and trying to get a double on Miles as often as I can. I’m putting in cut pros.
I’m putting in screens. I’m putting in cracks. Anything I can to try and get in these dudes head and all of that happens and it ends up you realize after you try and do all this that oh man, we’re not who we are. So, it’s it’s it is so hard. I can’t [ __ ] wait to watch this. I really cannot. >> It’s going to be And listen, the Eagles playing [laughter] it first game.
We get it first game. >> First game. >> First game. Los Angeles Rams. >> You guys are playing >> 49ers. >> No, no, no. We get to see it as a fan. We all get to see it. >> Yeah. >> I’m a fan first. Sorry. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Yeah. No, I don’t get to see it till like Christmas. >> Yeah. And the Eagles get to see it week four.
And listen, we don’t back down from anybody, but I can’t wait to watch this. I’m I’m looking as a offensive line, defensive line nerd. >> I love I love playing the best. I want to [ __ ] play the best. >> Oh my gosh. I might do some tape. >> Bring it in. >> Should we do some tape breakdown of what how we used to? It was the easiest game plan ever.
Where’s Where’s 99 and I’m going that way. What if they’re blitzing over there? That would always be the fun one. We’re going into the meeting and it’s like, “All right, Kelsey, here’s the game plan.” All right. Yeah, I’m going to slide the 99. I don’t give a [ __ ] what the what you all are talking about, but if you want something else, you put a different guy in the center.
I’m going over here [laughter] cuz THIS GUARD IS [ __ ] DOWN HIS LEG AND we’re not going to let this guy ruin the [ __ ] game. And then Aaron’s in the middle of the game. He’s like, “Oh, Kelse, why?” You know, STOP DOUBLING ME. STOP DOUBLING. NO, AARON. NO, WE ARE GOING TO double you and don’t be mad at me. >> I hated playing Kelse’s little fast ass.
>> Yeah. [laughter] I mean, I didn’t do [ __ ] I would get over there quick as quick as I could. [laughter] >> Had to go behind go had to go behind the guard sometimes and he beat the guard around the edge. >> Nice. All right. Well, it’ll be fun to uh see how all that unfolds, man. Congrats to the Rams and, you know, congrats to Aaron, man.
There’s got to be a [ __ ] >> Let’s just Let’s just crown them now. We don’t even need to play the games. >> Moving on. Do we want to talk about maybe the wildest preseason story or what? >> Oh, the 49ers. [laughter] Yeah. Per the FBI, the Fed Federal Bureau of >> Investigation. Yep. >> Man posing as a San Francisco 49er charged with defrauding over two dozen women out of more than $1.
3 million. >> Yeah. Yeah. [sighs and snorts] >> $1.3 million. Yeah. It It’s I’ll be honest. It’s hard to feel bad when it’s as easy as just googling. >> Have you seen the videos? Have you seen any of this? >> No, that’s what I’m saying. I have I have not seen it. I want to see what the what the what he looks like.
>> I don’t know. It might have been the video. >> I should I should do like Listen, I’m not I’m anti fraud. I’m anti fraud. >> Contract. >> All right, let’s see it.

I don’t want to give out any false information per the FBI.

Claimed to be cousins with uh Julian and Jordan Love >> because he used the last name Love. >> I like that one. That’s clever. >> Yeah, he does look like them, too. All right, let’s keep going here.

Okay. when asked why he wasn’t currently on the team claimed there are three components to clearing waiverss in the NFL. Physical, mental, and emotional. >> Wow.

Measure those. >> He told women he did not clear waiverss because he broke his pinky. So, he was stuck on stuck with the 49ers.

I’m just going to put it out there. We got to be smarter. We got to be able to sniff through this one. All right cuz I’m telling you this is what happened.
>> On a special podcast episode aired one September evening in 2026. Travis Kelce’s familiar voice rang out first, warm and with a touch of humor as always. Beside him was Taylor Swift’s clear laughter. They sat in a cozy little studio bathed in soft yellow light. And for the first time, they decided to publicly share about their first shared home, a spacious house in the peaceful suburbs of Cleveland, Ohio.
“We just did something a little crazy,” Travis began, his voice low and cheerful. bought a house, our first real home. Taylor giggled. That’s right. And it’s in Cleveland where Travis grew up, where he always says home in the deepest sense. The story began there. The podcast recording and the intimate atmosphere.
The studio was simply furnished with two comfortable chairs, a small wooden table in the middle, and a few plants in the corner. Microphones hung suspended in front of them. Travis wore a gray hoodie while Taylor opted for a light cream colored sweater. They sat closer than usual, their shoulders occasionally touching as they laughed.
Travis recounted the moment he first showed Taylor the house. Remember it was drizzling in Cleveland that day, the typical light rain. You were standing on the front porch looking at the spacious yard. Then you turned to me and said, “Honey, this place feels so home.” Taylor nodded, her voice soft. “Yes.” He grew up nearby.
Every time he visits his parents, he still talks about the old streets, about the soccer field from his childhood. I wanted a place we could both come back to. Not a hotel, not a short-term rental, a place that truly belongs to us. Together they described the mansion. It sat on a plot of land larger than 2 acres surrounded by ancient trees and lush green lawns.
The house had a modern yet classic style with a natural stone facade and large glass windows opening onto a spacious backyard. Inside there are five bedrooms, a double- height living room, an open kitchen with a marble island, and a separate room that Taylor jokingly calls his creative corner. Travis interjected.
