Despite warnings from his wife Kylie to be on his best behavior when they met Travis’ girlfriend Taylor Swift for the first time, Jason was filmed roaring into the night without a top on, can of beer in hand in 20 degree weather .
Kylie could be seen watching in bewilderment in the background as the party got underway in the suite as mom Donna pointed at Jason going wild.

‘No not at all. No,” she said PEOPLE when asked about it, she was surprised by Jason’s hilarious drinking display.
She admitted that Jason has performed similar moves, saying he has “done it occasionally” and citing the Eagles Super Bowl parade as an example.
“He just saves it for special moments,” she said before revealing that Jason tends to keep this side of himself hidden when he’s in football mode.
“A lot of people don’t see it because nine times out of 10 he’s all business when he’s on the field,” Donna added. “He’s so focused on the game and he’s so into it that people don’t see that side of him.”
She said her eldest is “just as lighthearted and fun and in the moment as Travis” off the field, but “is more businesslike when it comes to football.”
Jason’s The season came to an end last week when the Philadelphia Eagles were defeated by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the wildcard round on January 15 and Donna claimed the elimination means the father of three can “finally let his hair down.”

Jason’s wife Kylie also didn’t seem fazed by her husband’s antics as she broke her silence on Friday.
“That’s my husband,” she joked in an interview on Good Morning America.
“He wanted the full Bills experience. They are infamous or famous for their tailgating.
“He really wanted to go through a table. It was on his checklist for the day. He didn’t get a chance to do that.

‘When he entered the suite – we arrived separately as he had met some friends and was walking through the farewell lot hoping to find a table, he was unsuccessful.
“But when he came into the suite, he said to me, ‘I’m going to take off my shirt and jump out,’ and I said I didn’t think it was a good idea. But I think it was that persistent energy. The first time he jumped out of the suite, I was, you know what, ‘go ahead, that’s my man.’
Jason has a chance to repeat his performance this Sunday when the Kansas City Chiefs travel to Baltimore to take on the Ravens in the AFC Championship game.
Good Morning America confirmed that the veteran center, who is expected to retire this season, will cheer on Travis alongside Kylie at M&T Bank Stadium.
