Requesting Jason Kelce to Avoid Grave Mistake, Wife Kylie Sends Heartwarming Wishes Ahead of Hubby’s Eagles Return
“Maybe try not to say t-ts this week?” Kylie Kelce’s playful jab at her husband Jason Kelce might just be the most endearing pre-game pep talk in NFL history. As the former Philadelphia Eagles center gears up for his return to Lincoln Financial Field, this time in the broadcast booth, his better half is making sure he doesn’t fumble his words again.
Kylie took to Instagram on September 14, 2024, sharing a heartwarming family photo from the Eagles’ training ground. Her caption read like a love letter wrapped in a stand-up comedy routine: “Training camp looked a little different this year. Watching you at the Linc on Monday is going to be a little different too. Just know that the girls and I are loving cheering you on in this new chapter!”
The Kelce family’s transition from field to booth has been nothing short of a roller coaster ride. After 13 seasons as the Eagles’ stalwart center, Jason hung up his cleats in March, only to trade them for a microphone on ESPN’s Monday Night Football broadcast. It’s a change that’s left fans both nostalgic and excited, wondering if Jason’s on-air persona will be as colorful as his on-field antics.
This Monday night’s game against the Atlanta Falcons isn’t just any old matchup for Jason. It’s a homecoming of sorts, albeit with a twist. Instead of crouching over the ball and snapping it to Jalen Hurts, he’ll be next door at the parking lot of Xfinity Live!, breaking down plays and likely dropping a few pearls of Kelce wisdom.
The atmosphere at the Linc promises to be electric. As Jason himself told SportsRadio 94 WIP, “It has the potential to really be very raucous. Nick Foles is coming back. I think Fletch (Fletcher Cox) might be coming back. Philadelphia fans are gonna be really fired up.” With the Eagles honoring Super Bowl hero Nick Foles at halftime, it’s shaping up to be a night where past and present collide in the most Philadelphia way possible.
Kelce’s broadcasting debut leaves fans in stitches
Jason’s transition from player to commentator has been anything but smooth – and that’s exactly why fans love it. His ESPN debut on September 9 was a masterclass in Kelce-style chaos, complete with a wardrobe malfunction that had viewers howling.
Picture this: Everyone’s decked out in business professional attire, and there’s Jason, squeezed into a shirt that looks like it shrunk in the wash. Why? He forgot his travel bag. But in true Kelce fashion, he owned it like a champ. “It fits my belly now, I’ve lost a little weight, but my t-ts are still struggling,” he quipped, sending the internet into a frenzy.
Even his brother Travis and pop sensation Taylor Swift couldn’t contain their laughter. “Me and Taylor were watching that, absolutely dying laughing at it,” Travis shared on their “New Heights” podcast. “It was the perfect thing to open everybody up to what they were gonna experience for the next 18 weeks [of the season].”
But don’t let the antics fool you. When it came time for analysis, Jason proved he was not just there for laughs. His breakdown of the San Francisco 49ers game against the New York Jets showed he’s got the chops to back up the charm. As fans gear up for Monday night’s game, they’re not just tuning in for football – they’re tuning in for the Jason Kelce show. And if Kylie’s Instagram post is any indication, it’s going to be a touchdown of a performance, wardrobe malfunctions and all.
