At the top of the Billboard charts is another venue where Travis Kelce and his girlfriend - pop star Taylor Swift are spending some sweet time together.
Could it mean they are competing on the charts now?!
Two weeks after its release, "The Guy on the Chiefs'" duet song with brother Jason Kelce, "Fairytale Of Philadelphia," has risen to the top of the Rock Digital Song Sales and Holiday Digital Song Sales charts, according to a Billboard report published on Tuesday.
The brothers' rendition of "Fairytale of New York," a song by The Pogues from the 1980s, is a duet hit that will be included on the upcoming charity Christmas CD of Eagles offensive linemen Jason Kelce, Lane Johnson, and Jordan Mailata.
The album's Instagram account describes it as "a tale of two brothers whose love for each other withstands the test of time."

"That song was fun. That song was actually pretty sweet, man. I enjoyed doing it. The guys, the team, came out and hung out with me in Kansas City for a few hours and we knocked it out," Travis said on the Oct. 25 episode of the brothers' "New Heights" podcast.
He added, "(I'm) not saying it was good by any means. I'm just saying they made it sound extremely better than what I felt like I left that studio thinking. I was like, 'They're gonna not use this at all; I don't know.'" Jason and Travis Kelce expressed gratitude to Swifties for "Fairytale of Philadelphia's" popularity.
Luckily for the NFL players, the song topped the iTunes charts the day after it was released. Jason said, "We are rockstars," during the podcast. "
We owe a big thanks to one group in particular besides the 92 percenters," he added, referencing fans of the podcast. "And that's the Swifties. 'Cause the Swifties came out. I sent out one tweet when it got to eight, and I got, like, 85 tweets from Swifties across the world saying, 'Oh, you think eight's good? We're taking this to #1!' And they did. It's a powerful group."
"One thousand percent," Travis agreed. "Thanks, Taylor. Appreciate you. And thank you to the Swifties."
Swift is now leading the Billboard Artist 100 chart at number one. Her single "Cruel Summer" recently fell to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 after Jack Harlow's "Lovin On Me" took the top place. "1989 (Taylor's Version)" is presently #2 on the Billboard 200, which monitors the week's most popular albums.
Children's Crisis Treatment Center and Children's Hospital of Philadelphia will benefit from the Eagles players' "A Philly Special Christmas Special" proceeds. Last year, the Eagles linemen's debut record, "A Philly Special Christmas," helped generate $1.25 million for charitable causes. It goes live on all digital platforms this Friday, December 1.
