Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift wedding guest list creates awkward exchange between FOX NFL colleagues: ‘We signed NDAs’
Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s wedding guest list provided an awkward exchange on Fox NFL Kickoff as one cast member realized he was the only one not invited.
Charissa Thompson hosted the first early pregame show of the year alongside Julian Edelman and Charles Woodson as they looked ahead to the start of the new season.
But as conversation turned to Kelce – who begins his 14th season on Monday Night Football as the Kansas City Chiefs host the Denver Broncos – the topic of his wedding to Swift inevitably came up.
And Edelman could not resist making a point of the fact he was invited to the star-studded Madison Square Garden ceremony, as over 1,000 people saw the celebrity power couple tie the knot on July 4 weekend.
Thompson was also among the guests alongside her close friend Erin Andrews, with both having a well-known friendship with Kelce.
She tried to change the subject by joking ‘we signed NDAs’ to move on the topic, telling Woodson his invite likely got ‘lost in the mail’ in the awkward exchange.

‘Travis Kelce, how hungry can he be? He just had the wedding of the century,’ Woodson asked, leading to former Patriots receiver Edelman to interject: ‘It was a great wedding.’
A confused Woodson asked: ‘Hold on, did you go?’ as Edelman repeated himself, saying: ‘It was a great wedding.’
‘And you went?’ Woodson then asked as he turned to Thompson, who joked in return: ‘It’s not important right now, we signed NDAs.’
Woodson, who was born in Ohio, like Cleveland native Kelce, couldn’t believe he was the only one not to make the cut.
‘I thought I had the Ohio connection. I thought I would be the one invited,’ he said.
‘Your invitation was probably lost in the mail,’ Thompson joked, before Woodson pointed to the fact Edelman had far more Super Bowl as the probable reason.
‘How many Super Bowls did you win?’ Woodson asked Edelman. ‘Three,’ the Patriots legend replied.
‘That’s probably why then,’ Woodson responded.
Woodson has previously spoken about Kelce and Swift, calling their relationship good for the NFL in an interview with the Daily Mail back in 2023 when they started dating.

‘As long as it doesn’t affect playing, training and regiments – then it is not affecting him as a player,’ Woodson said.
‘He just keeps doing what he is doing to be a better player, and he is doing that. ‘As soon as it starts to affect that, then you have a problem.
‘But I truly believe he is a guy that wants to be considered to be the best player in the position, and he will continue to work as hard as he can without the extra celebrity level.’
Kelce has gushed about his wedding day as the ‘best day of his life’ when asked about the event during training camp.
Kelce said: ‘It was a fun offseason, man, wedding was the best night of my life and I appreciate everyone who came out and celebrated and had fun with us.
‘That’s about all I really got from that night. It was a crazy night. It was full of a lot of celebration. But it’s football, baby.’
Asked specifically about getting married at Madison Square Garden, he added: ‘MSG, man. You know, I always told myself I’d go for a playoff game when the Knicks were rocking. Then my wife went when I was stuck in minicamp, so I didn’t get my opportunity to go then.
‘So it’s kind of cool to be able to live out my childhood dream of being in that venue, the Mecca of all sports venues, being able to get married in there.
‘I can’t thank the owners of MSG for allowing us to get the opportunity to do that, knowing we wanted a private event and everything, so it was perfect. And the AC was perfect, man, that’s the best part.’
