“The best gift that I got was from Taylor,” Kelce said, before insisting that he couldn't share anything more about the gift. "But it gives away things that we’re trying to keep in-house. So I’m not going to say it.”

After coyly teasing that Swift's top-secret gift was his favorite of the season, Kelce gave her a direct shoutout, saying, “And I love you, Tay."

While Kelce wasn't willing to reveal the to-be-kept-in-house gift his fiancée gave him for Christmas, he did open up about Swift gift-giving more generally when opened up a little about celebrating the holidays with his soon-to-be-in-laws.

Kelce made it clear that top-tier gift-giving skills run in the family, giving his future brother-in-law, Austin Swift, a shoutout.

"Austin got me a great gift as well," he revealed, once again stopping short of giving any details about the great Swift gift in question.

This actually marked the second time Kelce has given Austin a Christmas gift appreciation shoutout on New Heights (he previously gushed about Austin's 2023 Christmas gift, which he revealed at the time was, "a VHS of my favorite football movie of all time," Little Giants).

Jason Kelce made sure Swift's parents, Andrea Swift and Scott Swift, weren't left out of the future in-law lovefest this time around, adding, “the Swifts are good gift givers.”

Kelce agreed with his brother that all of the Swift's deserve to share in the compliment, saying, “They are great gift givers.”

Of course, Kelce reportedly did pretty well in the gift-giving department himself this holiday season, with reports suggesting the NFL athlete spent $142,000 on an array of designer pieces and planned a wintery ski vacation for Swift this Christmas.
