The Philadelphia Eagles are thriving as they enter Thursday night, having won five straight games and sitting at 7-2. With a win over the 7-3 Washington Commanders, they have the chance to take firm control of the NFC East. The Commanders will be looking to steal a road win at Lincoln Financial Field, where a raucous crowd of passionate Eagles fans will be waiting.
One player who fully embraced being an Eagle and the city of Philadelphia was Jason Kelce. While it’s strange not seeing him on the field anymore, Kelce remains deeply connected to the game and continues to support the Eagles every chance he gets.
On Thursday night, he made a special pregame appearance ahead of the divisional clash, showing his ongoing commitment to the team and the city that he helped make proud during his illustrious career.
Jason Kelce was spotted on the field before Thursday night’s game, hanging out with the band Mt. Joy. The group is set to perform a concert outside Lincoln Financial Field at 6:30 p.m. EST pregame.
Jason Kelce has truly embraced life after football, becoming a prominent figure in sports media. Since retiring at the end of last season, Kelce has joined ESPN’s “Monday Night Countdown”, where he works alongside Scott Van Pelt, Ryan Clark, and Marcus Spears. His insight and unique perspective have made him a fan favorite on the show.
In addition to his media ventures, Kelce’s podcast, “New Heights Show”, co-hosted with his brother Travis Kelce, has exploded in popularity. It ranked No. 1 on Spotify for four straight months in the sports podcast category, cementing its place as one of the hottest sports podcasts in the U.S.
Despite his media success, Kelce’s deep connection to football and the Eagles is unmistakable. Stepping back onto the field where he achieved so much—winning a Super Bowl, earning six first-team All-Pro selections, and making seven Pro Bowls—is a special moment for him and his fans.
Regarded as one of the greatest centers in NFL history, Kelce’s legacy in Philadelphia is secure, but his continued contributions to sports media and podcasting ensure he remains an influential voice in the sports world.
