Jimmy asked if Taylor invited Jerrod to the game, and Jerrod confirmed. Taylor’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce, plays for the Kansas City Chiefs as a tight end.
Jimmy also asked if Jerrod asked Taylor questions about football during the game, and Jerrod joked that he felt like the girlfriend in that situation.
