Travis Kelce is used to taking hits on the field … but he was blindsided by a blow off of it this week — when “Jeopardy!” ribbed him with one of its clues!!!
The game show fired off the diss when a contestant asked to receive a hint from a category titled, “The TV Show In Question.”

The $200 clue — which host Ken Jennings read out loud — stated, “‘Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?’ is hosted by this man who’s maybe more famous as a BF than as a 3-time Super Bowl Champ.”
The contestant — Derek — knew the answer right away … blurting out the name of Taylor Swift‘s boyfriend, who became the host of the “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?” spinoff earlier this year.
The scene wasn’t met with much fanfare in the studio — as Jennings continued on with the game just seconds later — but online, there were a few social media users who went after “Jeopardy!” for the seemingly unneccesary shade.
Kelce, meanwhile, hasn’t commented on the matter … although we’re sure he’ll laugh it off — as he did, after all, take no umbrage with being called Taylor’s “arm candy” back in September.
