Even when he’s shirtless and pounding beers at a football game, Jason Kelce is still in girl dad mode.
The Philadelphia Eagles center has three young daughters of his own with his wife Kylie, and last night mom and dad stepped out to cheer on Jason’s younger brother Travis Kelce as his Kansas City Chiefs took down the Buffalo Bills in the NFL divisional round playoffs.
But Jason may have stolen the show at Highmark Stadium.
Before the game even kicked off, Kelce was doing shots out of a bowling ball with Bills fans who were tailgating in the parking lot.
And during the game, Jason was not only photobombing Taylor Swift while sitting shirtless in the box drinking a beer, but also jumping down from his box to celebrate and pound a beer after Travis scored a touchdown for the Chiefs.
And he also helped one young Bills fan make a memory that she won’t soon forget.
During another trip into the stands, Kelce (who was still shirtless) found a young girl in the stands holding a sign for Travis Kelce’s girlfriend Taylor Swift, and carried her up to the box so that she could say hi to Taylor herself.
“We’re going to show this to Taylor real quick, alright?”
The fan eagerly waved at the pop star while holding the sign up to the window, before turning around and smiling for a picture with the Eagles center.
A man of the people – and the kids.
Jason Kelce, who hosts the New Heights podcast alongside Travis, has proven to be a fan favorite even among other fanbases. Since first entering the league after being drafted by the Eagles in 2011, Kelce is a 7-time Pro Bowl center and won a Super Bowl ring with the Dirty Birds back in 2018.
It’s been rumored that Kelce will be retiring after this season, after it was reported that he told his teammates after their season-ending loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers that he would be hanging it up.
But Kelce has pushed back on the rumors, saying that he hasn’t made a decision on whether he’s done playing football yet:
“I didn’t announce what I was doing on purpose. Despite, I guess, what’s been leaked to the media.
I just don’t think you’re in a position after a game like that to really make that decision. I just don’t…there’s too much emotion in the moment to really fully grasp that decision. I’m not trying to be dramatic and continue to draw this thing out. I’m really not.
It’s just something that I think, you know when it’s time to officially announce what’s happening in the future…It will be done in a way that’s definitive and pays respect to a lot of people and individuals that have meant a lot to me and led to the career I’ve had.”
I would hate to see Kelce retire, but I’ve gotta admit, if shirtless Jason Kelce hanging out in the stands pounding beers is the kind of content we would get from him on a weekly basis, I’m here for it.
