Adding to the excitement, Philadelphia Eagles star Jason Kelce embraced the celebratory mood, going shirtless with joy aftre his brother Travis scores during the match. His enthusiasm reached a peak when he jumped out of the suite on Sunday, leaving the Internet amused.

Young girl reveals she felt 'amazing' when Jason Kelce carried her to meet Taylor Swift
According to People, Ella Piazza, who gained widespread attention when shirtless Jason assisted her in waving at Taylor Swift during Sunday's Bills-Chiefs playoff game, revealed that she had envisioned the moment a week prior. Speaking on the 'Today' show on Tuesday, January 23, Ella shared, "I was thinking positive, but some of my friends weren't that positive."
As reported by People, Ella and her mother, Jessica Piazza, initially sat on the opposite side of Highmark Stadium from where Swift, Kelce family members, and friends were watching the game.
However, Jessica's friend, seated in the section below the suite, suggested they switch spots at halftime, as mentioned on 'Today'. Carrying a handmade sign reading 'Buffalo Bills + Taylor Swift – Best First Game Ever,' the mother and daughter changed their seats.
Jessica revealed, according to People, “It was halftime and a lot of people had left their seats to go to the bathroom or get a drink or whatever, and so we just tried climbing up higher and higher. It was really Ella who was forging the path. When people saw her sign, everyone started helping her. It was really cute.”
This is when the shirtless Philadelphia Eagles center decided to jump into the stands and noticed the third-grader.
According to Ella, "Then (he) came over here and then he picked me up and then I saw Taylor. It was, like, amazing." Jason held Ella so that the 'Lover' singer, seated in the suite, could read her sign. Ella waved to Swift, and then she and the Eagles star posed for a picture.
According to People, Jessica revealed, "He was so kind to her. I was just so thankful that he gave her the chance to see Taylor because she was, she was standing up there at the top of the bleachers with her sign just waiting and hoping and so brave, she climbed all the way to the top."
After the experience, Jessica stated that her daughter was in "absolute heaven" and "the happiest I've ever seen her."
Jessica added, “She still probably doesn’t realize what a big star Jason Kelce also is. She just couldn’t believe she saw Taylor! The rest of the game she was on cloud nine.”
It wasn't the sole occasion when Jason won the hearts of the fans. Before the start of the Bills-Chiefs game, the Philadelphia Eagles star was spotted enjoying the atmosphere and sharing drinks with Bills fans outside the stadium.
