Will Compton Copes With Getting Snubbed From The Kelce Wedding

Dave Portnoy called Will Compton to check on him after Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce got married without him in the building, and Compton had a treadmill printout ready.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce reportedly tied the knot at MSG on Friday, and somewhere in the aftermath the internet realized one very notable name was missing from the guest list: Will Compton. The former NFL linebacker turned Bussin' With The Boys co-host and honorary Chiefs locker room ambassador is about as plugged into the Kelce orbit as anyone outside the family, so his absence was the kind of thing that demanded an explanation. Dave Portnoy, never one to let a story breathe without picking up the phone, decided to get to the bottom of it live.

Dave Portnoy rang up Will Compton on a live segment to check in on him after the snub.

The on-screen chyron said it all: "ON THE PHONE: WILL COMPTON (DID NOT GET AN INVITE TO THE WEDDING)." Brutal, but accurate. Compton, for his part, didn't sound devastated so much as amused, cracking that his current location put him in position to help if Barstool ever needed eyes on the ground overseas.

“I’m a couple hours away from Belgium so again, I’m on the inside if we have to make a move” -@_willcompton 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Naturally, the funniest part of the call wasn't even the wedding talk. It was that Compton was reportedly doing the whole interview mid-treadmill session, which is peak Compton behavior for anyone who's followed his fitness obsession on Bussin' With The Boys. He even followed up on Twitter afterward with the actual numbers, because apparently getting roasted for a wedding snub on live TV wasn't going to stop him from logging his zone 2 work.

There's no indication Compton is actually bitter about it — this reads much more like a bit than a real grievance, and Portnoy calling to "check in" was clearly more roast than rescue mission. But it's a fun reminder of how tightly Barstool's orbit has wrapped itself around the Swift-Kelce universe, to the point where a guest list snub becomes its own live-TV moment. Whether Compton actually gets the next invite remains to be seen.
