Travis Kelce just revealed who he desperately wants on New Heights — and it's not Taylor Swift
While fans of New Heights have long hoped for
Taylor Swift
to grace the podcast stage alongside boyfriend
Travis Kelce
and his brother Jason Kelce, the
NFL
star's latest comments suggest those dreams might not come true anytime soon.
Despite the overwhelming public interest in seeing Swift guest-star, Kelce shocked many when he named NFL and MLB legend Deion Sanders as his top pick instead.
Travis Kelce's dream podcast guest leaves fans stunned—his answer was bold and totally unexpected
During a recent appearance on the Bussin' With The Boys podcast with former NFL stars Will Compton and Taylor Lewan, Kelce was asked who his dream guest would be for New Heights. Rather than choosing his globally famous girlfriend — who has never appeared on the show — Kelce responded without hesitation: 'Man, I want to get Deion Sanders on so bad.
I want to talk to him about the football and baseball world that he was in in the late '80s, early '90s, and just chop it up.
'
Kelce continued, expressing his admiration for Sanders' rare feat of excelling in two professional sports. 'He was always one of my favorite guys. I played every sport imaginable growing up, and I always wanted to be one of those guys that played both. Played two. Two-sport professional athlete,' Kelce added, before acknowledging the almost mythical nature of Sanders' dual-sport legacy.

'No f—ing chance. No shot.
The story about him playing in both — he had to helicopter from one in the same day… it was crazy.'
Travis Kelce Talks NFL Retirement, Chiefs Super Bowl Loss + Bussin' With The Boys Meets Taylor Swift
Sanders, who is now the head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes, is widely celebrated as one of the greatest athletes of all time. With a touchdown in the NFL and a home run in the MLB within the same week, his legacy as a two-sport icon is unmatched. He remains one of just seven players since 1970 to achieve this feat, alongside the legendary Bo Jackson.
While Kelce's choice makes sense for sports fans, it was hard not to notice the absence of Swift from the conversation. Her name has come up frequently on New Heights, but a guest spot has yet to materialize, despite the show's booming success partially fueled by Kelce's relationship with the pop superstar.
Off the field, Kelce has become a household name, not just for his football accolades but also for his media presence.
Despite enduring his worst season statistically since his rookie year, the Kansas City Chiefs star remains committed to the game. He chose to return for a 13th NFL season, even after contemplating retirement following a Super Bowl loss.
With New Heights hosting megastars like LeBron James and Ben Stiller, Kelce's guest list ambitions remain high. But for now, fans may need to accept that a Swift episode is still a distant dream — especially with Coach Prime topping Kelce's wish list.

Tyreek Hill wants another raise despite $90M deal—Dolphins, McDaniel reportedly considering trade
Tyreek Hill's future with the Dolphins is now uncertain (Image via: Getty Images) Tyreek Hill's time in Miami could be heading toward another twist. Less than a year after signing a $90 million extension, the Dolphins wide receiver is already eyeing a new deal. With no guaranteed money left after 2025 and a $27.7 million cap hit looming, insiders say Hill's future with the franchise is uncertain. Despite $90M extension, Hill wants more—Dolphins may be planning exit strategy Tyreek Hill signed a three-year, $90 million extension in 2024, with $59 million guaranteed. But with just $10 million in base salary due in 2025—and no guarantees left beyond this season—Hill is now believed to be pushing for another payday. According to reports shared on The Pat McAfee Show, Hill is aware of the booming wide receiver market and could look to restructure his deal while he still holds value. The Dolphins, however, are in a difficult position. While Hill remains one of the NFL's most explosive weapons, questions about his leadership and long-term fit in Mike McDaniel's offense have resurfaced. During offseason workouts, Hill openly admitted he didn't deserve to be a captain, saying, 'I gotta show up different. The mindset gotta be different.' Steelers Continue Signing Veteran Talent, Trade For Jalen Ramsey & Jonnu Smith | Pat McAfee Show That comment raised concerns inside the locker room. Former NFL defensive back Darius Butler even suggested the Dolphins may strip Hill of his captaincy in 2025. Leadership doubts, combined with contract demands, have reportedly caused Miami's front office to quietly explore future trade scenarios. Bleacher Report recently floated a potential three-team deal involving Hill, while Kyle Crabbs of AtoZ Sports speculated that the Dolphins could move on from the star receiver after the 2025 season, if not sooner. With his cap hit climbing and younger, cheaper receivers emerging, Miami may prefer to reallocate resources. As of now, Hill remains in camp, fully active and training. But as NFL teams look for cap flexibility and culture stability, a blockbuster decision may not be far off. Also Read: T.J.

Serve ace of a seat at Wimbledon, get 75% returns
For two weeks every summer, the Centre Court at Wimbledon is where fans can watch the best tennis players in the sport's most prestigious amphitheater. For some of the most expensive ticket holders, it's not even worth attending. That's because owning so-called debentures - a guaranteed seat on Centre Court or No. 1 Court for a five-year stretch - has become so profitable that many are choosing to treat them as a tradeable asset, selling them on for a significant profit. Centre Court debenture seats for between 2026 and 2030 are already changing hands at over £200,000 ($275,300) once the final installment is included, a profit of about 75% due to soaring demand from US buyers, according to market-maker Dowgate Capital. They went on sale last year for £116,000. Debentures guarantee wealthy tennis lovers prime seats, as well as VIP access to lounges and restaurants. On days they can't attend, they're able to sell their tickets for the day - the only exchangeable tickets for Wimbledon. And investors are increasingly getting in on the action, buying up debentures solely to sell them for a profit. "You get tennis fans coming to Wimbledon as the mecca of tennis from all over the world, particularly the US," said Alex Cheatle, Chief Executive Officer of Ten Lifestyle Group Plc, a luxury concierge service that snags debentures for its high-net worth clients. Live Events Just as the valuations of sports teams and franchises have soared in recent years as private equity firms and billionaires race to get a piece, so has the price to attend flagship sporting events. Tickets for Premier League games have increased 800% since 1990, while a seat at the 2024 Super Bowl in Las Vegas was selling for an average of about $10,000. Debentures are used by many sports clubs, from Arsenal Football Club to the Minnesota Vikings, to help raise funds often to cover construction costs. Wimbledon debentures were first sold in 1920, with the £100,000 raised used to fund the building of the Centre Court. Debentures have paid for everything from installing retractable roofs on the two main courts guaranteeing play when it rains - to building 12 new courts in the past six years. They will also be used to help fund an expansion plan to add 39 courts and an 8,000-seater stadium, though this has been met with local opposition. Part of the £74 million the club expects to raise from the latest No. 1 Court debentures will go toward redeveloping exclusive areas for holders. These debentures that start in 2027 went for £73,000 each in May, a 63% increase from the previous round. "They're incredibly important," said Fiona Canning, the associate director of finance and debentures at the All England Lawn Tennis Club , which manages the annual tournament. "They fund all the capital work on our site." The returns made trading debentures for Centre Court seats that start next summer work out at 75%. Since the first payment was made on May 17 last year, the FTSE 100 has risen less than 4% and the S&P 500 is up 17%. Debentures are regulated because they're considered financial instruments, similar to bonds. Regulation provides the buyer with protection and transparency, allowing buyers on the secondary market to see the prices they're trading for.

T.J. Watt demands $200M deal to become NFL's highest-paid non-QB amid Steelers contract standoff
T.J. Watt's $200M demand fuels minicamp absence (Image via: Getty Images) T.J. Watt's future with the Pittsburgh Steelers is in question as the All-Pro edge rusher enters the final year of his contract in 2025. With talks stalled and tensions rising, Watt is reportedly pushing for a historic extension that would make him the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history—surpassing even Ja'Marr Chase's recent record deal. T.J. Watt pushes for $200M extension to become NFL's highest-paid non-quarterback The Steelers are facing a contract dilemma they've rarely dealt with one involving their franchise cornerstone on defense. According to NFL insider Gerry Dulac, Watt is seeking a five-year extension worth over $200 million, equating to more than $40 million annually. His demand stems from wanting to top Ja'Marr Chase's four-year, $161 million deal with the Bengals, currently the league's highest for any non-QB. Watt, who turns 31 this year, believes his elite play and leadership warrant a massive payday. Despite a modest sack total in 2024, his value remains undeniable. He continues to be the anchor of Pittsburgh's pass rush and is one of the most respected defenders in the league. Steelers Insider Gerry Dulac on Pittsburgh's TJ Watt Contract Conundrum | The Rich Eisen Show However, the Steelers are hesitant. Committing to a five-year deal for a player over 30 carries risk, even for someone with Watt's résumé. But from the player's perspective, a shorter deal wouldn't allow Pittsburgh to spread out the cap hit—a key issue in negotiations. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trending in in 2025: Local network access control [Click Here] Esseps Learn More Undo Watt misses minicamp as contract talks with Steelers break down The contract tension became public when Watt skipped the Steelers' mandatory minicamp in June, a rare move from a player who's typically all business. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that Watt is frustrated with the lack of progress and that, while the Steelers don't intend to trade him, other NFL teams have started making calls in case the impasse leads to a surprise move. This is unfamiliar territory for Pittsburgh. The organization is known for handling business quietly and efficiently with its stars. But this time, they're navigating a high-stakes contract in an era of soaring salary caps and positional value inflation.
