He’s a part of one of the most beloved families in football and everyone was talking about Jason Kelce’s Super Bowl outfit as he cheered on Travis against the 49ers on February 11, 2024. It’s not the first time the Philidelphia Eagles center has had people talking, either.
Jason married his wife Kylie in 2018. They share three daughters: Wyatt Elizabeth; Elliotte Ray; and Bennett Llewellyn. During an interview on Jason and Travis’ podcast, New Heights, in September 2023, Kylie joked about how she didn’t trust her brother-in-law to babysit her and Jason’s three kids.
“How long, if at all, would you allow me to babysit the girls unsupervised? Longer than Jason?” Travis asked on the podcast, to which Kylie responded, “But then who is watching you?” She continued, “To be fair, when I left today, Wyatt said, ‘I’ll keep an eye on him, mom.’” She then revealed the amount of time she would leave Travis alone with her kids. “I’d probably leave you for one hour,” she said. “I’d leave you with Wyatt, you can handle Wyatt,” Jason added, to which Kylie agreed.
Jokes aside, Kylie told People in February 2023 that Travis made the “absolute best” uncle to her daughters. “It’s very funny, Jason said in an interview that he thinks [the girls] might like him more than they like Jason,” she said. “I tell everybody, he comes to our house to visit and the poor guy doesn’t sit on the couch because our daughters will be like, ‘No, no, you sit on the floor. We’re gonna do a puzzle. We’re gonna build blocks. We’re gonna do this, we’re gonna do that.’” But back to Jason Kelce’s Super Bowl outfit because it’s a lewk.
Jason Kelce's Super Bowl outfit
Jason Kelce’s Super Bowl outfit in Las Vegas was compared to Zack Galifianakis’s character Allan in the 2008 comedy The Hangover—also set in Vegas. The meme, which featured a photoshopped image of the NFL star onto Galifianakis’ body, was created by the folks at Total Sports Pro and got a lot of people talking. You can see the comparisons here.
Jason Kelce shirtless
At the Chiefs game against the Buffalo Bills, Jason and Kylie were there cheering on Kansas City. When Travis scored a touchdown, Jason went viral for taking off his shirt and jumping into the crowd. “I wanted to take everything off and be out there with the fans,” he said about the moment on New Heights. “I don’t know if I’m wrong in my head, but I feel like taking your shirt off is a Buffalo Bills thing, right?”
Kylie was less than pleased. “I’m not going to lie, I gave Kylie a heads-up. The moment we get into the suite I said, ‘I’m taking my shirt off and jumping out of that suite.’ And she said, ‘Jason don’t you dare,’ ”, adding that he was “not asking for permission.” Couple goals, really.
Did Jason Kelce retire?
Jason Kelce is reportedly retiring, according to ESPN Senior NFL Insider Adam Schefter. “Six-time All-Pro and future Hall-of-Fame center Jason Kelce told his Eagles’ teammates in Monday night’s postgame locker room that he is in fact retiring, per league sources,” he posted on X (formerly known as Twitter).
One announcer said after the Eagles lost to the Buccaneers in a 32-9 game. “That looks like a man filled with emotion. You wonder if that’s it for 36-year-old Jason Kelce.” The center was teary eyed at the last couple moments of the game and waved to his wife in the stands while giving a handshake to his father.
Jason actually considered retiring after 2023, once their team lost to the Kansas City Chiefs at the Super Bowl. “We took on a lot last year, and it ended up working out really, really well for Travis and I at the end of the season, although we did come up one game short,” Jason said, referring to where he played his brother at Super Bowl LVII. “You know, I think it is a lot, and I think the way we’ve justified it as a family is that this is going to be over pretty soon here.”
