Travis Kelce Discusses International Expansion of NFL

The move by the NFL to expand globally was the main discussion on a recent episode of the brothers Travis and Jason Kelce's “New Heights” podcast.

The NFL for a long time has been trying to broaden the scope of the game it offers while conducting regular season games in various countries. Overseas expansion is on the discussion list, along with whether an NFL team will ever be based outside of the United States of America. Both Travis and Kelce spoke about how exciting it would be once NFL goes overseas as they engaged in discussions about where they would like to play some matches.





Could Travis Kelce Switch Teams?

As if that wasn't enough, during the chat Travis jokingly stated something that caught the imagination of fans everywhere. He discussed that if the NFL were ever to open up a team elsewhere outside of the United States, he would most likely switch teams to be part of that expansion, which made Jason laugh so hard. Even though there's no seriousness to it, it is still one of the most exciting statements about the bright future envisioned by the NFL in its global endeavours.
