Jason Kelce has finally lifted the veil on Travis Kelce\u2019s early NFL nickname in the Wednesday, April 1 episode of the New Heights podcast<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The NFL legend revealed that his younger brother\u2019s rookie-day nickname was \u201cHoopsie,\u201d which resurfaced when Travis Kelce signed his recent contract extension. The Philadelphia Eagles star then shared the hilarious story behind the nickname that perfectly captured Travis Kelce\u2019s style and on-field antics during his early days in the NFL.<\/p>\n

Travis Kelce<\/a> embraced the nickname, admitting he struggled to get out of the huddle during early training days in 2013-2014, partly because of those iconic hoop earrings.<\/p>\n

Going with the flow, Jason Kelce joked, \u201cDo we need Hoopsie merch?\u201d The Kansas City Chiefs<\/a> legend shot back, \u201cGet Tommy Hilfiger on it,\u201d hinting at a potential Hoopsie line from his upcoming collab with the fashion brand.<\/p>\n

The post<\/a> about Travis Kelce\u2019s newly revealed nickname on the \u201cNew Heights\u201d X (formerly Twitter) account has sparked hysterical reactions from the Twitterati. \u201cBigger the hoop\u2026Bigger the H*e,\u201d joked<\/a> a fan. \u201cI knew one day if I was patient enough..I\u2019d receive a crumb of slutty earring hope,\u2019 echoed<\/a> another. \u201cAnd Zeus for us OG Travis fans,\u201d read a comment<\/a> revealing yet another nickname.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, Jason Kelce refrains from using the \u201cHoopsie\u201d nickname. Instead, he addresses his brother as \u201cBig Yeti\u201d.<\/p>\n

Travis Kelce\u2019s \u201cBig Yeti\u201d nickname originates from his University of Cincinnati days, where he played pickup basketball between football practice. His distinctive appearance, marked by a rugged beard, long hair, and a hairy chest, made him stand out in games.<\/p>\n
