Jason and Travis Kelce teased a “very special” guest on their popular New Heights podcast that Taylor Swift fans agreed with — but not in the way you might think.
During Wednesday’s show, the NFL brothers revealed to listeners that there will be a “very special guest episode” on January 2, with Jason adding that they “finally got someone the 92%ers have been asking for.”
You might have expected this to spark some serious Taylor Swift rumors considering Travis’ headline-making relationship with the pop superstar, but instead there was another name on fans’ lips.
In the replies to a popular Swift fan account on social media, fans all agreed on who they think the guest is: Caitlin Clark.
In the comments section of “TayvisHaze,” Swift fans flooded in with comments like, “CAITLIN!!” and “My money is on Caitlin!”
Apparently Swifties have given up on the possibility of their No. 1 option ever appearing on the show, with one writing: “Well it definitely won’t be who we actually want!”

Taylor Swift fans think they know who the guest will be… and it’s not who you think it is
About New Heights, Jason added, “We’ve been waiting a long time for this. You’ll want to see it, you’ll want to see him or her.’
While no names have been revealed yet, Clark is someone the Kelces frequently talked about on their show, and both brothers — and Taylor Swift — are big fans of the WNBA superstar.
She is currently enjoying some off-season time off and her schedule seems clear to take part in a rare interview.
Clark made headlines last week when she was named TIME Magazine’s Athlete of the Year, inadvertently sparking something of a race war in America.
In her interview with TIME, Clark acknowledged her “white privilege” in the WNBA and admitted that the “league is built on Black players.”
Elsewhere in the interview, she also praised Kelce and Swift, revealing their generosity amid her meteoric rise to fame.

The 22-year-old revealed that 14-time Grammy Award winner and boyfriend Kelce were eager to jump on the WNBA bandwagon once their chaotic schedules subsided.
Swift wrote Clark a handwritten note, telling her that “Trav and I were “excited to go to a Fever game now that the tour was coming to an end and invited Clark to attend a Chiefs game,” reported TIME.
Clark also revealed that she received a personal gift from the ‘Fortnight’ singer, who wrapped up her historic Eras Tour this weekend.
Swift reportedly gave Clark four bags of merchandise from the $2 billion global tour, along with the note praising the basketball star as “inspiring to watch from afar.”
