Social media was flooded with lighthearted reactions, as some fans jokingly suggested that the winner resembled a mix of both Jason and his brother, Travis Kelce. “Can the real @jason.kelce please stand up?” one fan asked, while another added, “Philly really has a type.” Some fans even called for Jason to have a “national look-alike holiday,” highlighting how popular the Kelce brothers are among their followers.
Jason’s wife, Kylie Kelce, also joined the conversation. While she was not involved in judging the contest, she expressed her excitement about the event and offered some tips on how to recreate her husband's iconic look. According to Kylie, achieving Jason’s style requires strong brows, a short beard, and a cozy outfit, such as a heavy sweater or velour sweatsuit.
