Jason shared, "She's great," and further elaborated on Swift's kindness, noting, "She's been nothing but lovely to our family, she's a wonderful person." Despite Swift's offer to provide concert tickets, Jason firmly stated, "It is an immediate no," when asked about requests for tickets, emphasizing his reluctance to impose on Swift's generosity.
"She does say that, she's very...she's great but I still say no to everybody," he continued. "I'm not gonna be the one to impose on that. I don't want to put that position out there."
Jason, who retired from the NFL after 13 seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles, has transitioned into media appearances, including a debut on ESPN's Monday Night Football.

Jason also shared a heartwarming story about his 3-year-old daughter Elliotte's fondness for a Swift song. During a podcast appearance, he revealed Elliotte's frequent rendition of "I Can Do It with a Broken Heart," delighting in her playful adaptation of the lyrics.
"There's a line in that where 'I'm a real tough kid. I can handle my s---,' " Jason, who is also dad to daughters Wyatt, 5, and 21-month-old Bennett, added, "Ellie's 3 years old and she says, 'I'm a real tough kid. I can handle my stuff.' That's all I hear on a daily basis, because it gets a laugh out of me every time."
