Jason Kelce is so darned popular in Pennsylvania that he could probably make a solid run at governor.

And maybe he should, if that is something that really appeals to him. At least, that is, according to Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Schwarzenegger was the guest on Jason and Travis Kelce’s New Heights podcast this week, and Travis asked the bodybuilding legend, actor and former governor of California what he thought about Jason running for governor.

“I mean, he’s got it all,” Travis said.

“Yeah,” Schwarzenegger responded. “But it has to be in his heart.

“He maybe has the right combination,” he continued. “The most important thing — number-one — is name recognition, so, of course, he has that. But the second most important thing is you have to be passionate, you have to really say, ‘I see myself as the governor.’”

Schwarzenegger said he saw himself as governor and was convinced he could do a better job than the politicians who were in office at the time.

“There was certain things that I felt very strongly (about) and the people elected me because of that,” he said. “And so, it depends, you know, if you are into the public service thing or not, if you are, of course you can win because you’re an imposing figure, you speak really well, you’re very clear, and all you have to do now is just convince the people (that) ‘I’m the man.’”

Travis piped up and said, “Which, they already know you’re the man.”

“Don’t get me pumped up and do this right now,” Jason said. “I got a clear vision of my career right now.”

Jason tried to end it there.

Arnold and Travis kept it going with Travis suggesting they start with a run for mayor.

“No forget the mayor,” Schwarzenegger said. “You go for governor and then president.”

Jason wasn’t having it, and it is easy to understand why.

The 36-year-old just wrapped up a remarkable 13-year career in the NFL. He probably wants to rest up some and then reset.

But … hey, there’s no doubt he could get votes. Probably a lot of votes.

So, maybe one day, Pa. will have Governor Kelce in office.

Kylie Was a Student When She Met Jason

And he was right by her side when she graduated from Cabrini University in 2017. No literally, there he is:

While Kylie majored in communications in college, her main passion was field hockey. According to Cabrini Athletics’ page, she played defense and started in all 20 games of 2016. In other words, she was super skilled!

Point is, Kylie hadn’t entered the work force yet due to focusing on her education and field hockey. Once she met Jason and graduated, she began devoting her time to giving back to their local community. Which makes sense given….

Kylie Is Currently a Philanthropist

Jason actually started a non-profit called (Be)Philly, which is “dedicated to improving the lives” of Philadelphia’s youth by supporting “the most innovative and impactful programs in the city.” And obviously Kylie is involved!

She’s also integral to the Eagles Autism Foundation and throws events for them every year. In fact, Kylie recently chatted about autism-related advocacy on the Today Show, saying, “I had a neighbor growing up, Tim, who was like my brother. He called me and my sister his sisters, my mom his girlfriend, and my dad “The Boss.” He was just a constant, he was always around, and it was a learning experience that I didn’t even know we were gaining.”

Kylie added that her friendship with Tim “gave me this deep love and appreciation for one person who was on the autism spectrum, and so therefore it sort of just gives you this love. And it definitely fueled my passion.”

She went on to say that when she found out Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie “was using autism as his focus” for the team, she “was all in.”

According to Us Weekly, Kylie initially volunteered for the Eagles Autism Foundation and took on “more of an official” role in recent years.

She Does a Ton of Endorsements

So, how does Kylie make money? Just like all your faves: celebrity endorsements. We’re talking Papa Johns, Lindt, Dove…the world is basically her sponsored post oyster. As for what she earns per post, The Sun reports that Kylie could be making as much as $11,900 a pop given her rapidly growing Instagram following. And that number will only rise as her follower count does.

So What Is Kylie Kelce’s Net Worth?

According to Essentially Sports, she has $1 million to her name—though her and Jason’s combined net worth is sitting at $31 million. Oh, and let’s not forget that these two reportedly own a property in Pennsylvania that they bought for $680,000, as well as homes in Sea Isle City and Cleveland worth several million.

Welp, if you need me I’ll be sitting here patiently waiting for Papa Johns to give me an endorsement as a polite thank you for all the pizza I consume.

Jason Kelce is officially calling it a career.

The six-time All-Pro Philadelphia Eagles center held a news conference Monday afternoon to announce his retirement, a move that has been expected since Philadelphia’s season ended in January.

 

 

Kelce, 36, wore a cutoff black Eagles T-shirt with a gold wedding band and gold watch visible on his left hand and wrist. He leaves the NFL after 13 seasons, all with the Eagles, marked by dependability, availability, consistency and cerebral, exceptional play. Kelce was selected to seven Pro Bowls in his career, including the most recent five, and his six first-team All-Pro nominations came over the final seven seasons of his career.

“I’ve been asked many times why did I choose football, what drew me to the game, and I’ve never had an answer that gets it right,” Kelce said Monday at his press conference, fighting back tears. “The best way I can explain it is what draws you to your favorite song, your favorite book — it’s what it makes you feel. The seriousness of it, the intensity of it, stepping on the field was the most alive and free I have ever felt.”

After Philadelphia’s season ended with a 32-9 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the wild-card round of the playoffs, Kelce was visibly emotional on the sidelines, and he declined to talk to the media afterward.

All things Eagles: Latest Philadelphia Eagles news, schedule, roster, stats, injury updates and more.

According to multiple reports, Kelce had told teammates in the postgame locker room after the wild-card loss that it would be his last game as an NFL player.

On Monday morning, Kelce teased the announcement in a social media post, saying there would be “no keg videos this year,” a reference to a social media post last year, when he announced he’d be returning to the Eagles after pouring himself a beer from a keg.

He thanked dozens of family members, coaches, and teammates, some dating back to his days in high school, sharing formative anecdotes that he said made him the player and person he became with the Eagles.

Often, Kelce had to pause his prepared comments so that he could get through his tears.

“The melting pot of geographic location, economic background, race, body type, personality and athletic traits of an NFL locker room is truly remarkable,” Kelce said. “How we all rely on each other and respect one another and each of our difference because we know we’re stronger together. I will always cherish this brotherhood, the relationships it fostered and how unique an experience it has been to enjoy the field with you all. Coming to work every day with a group of men who were driven to be the best in the world at what they do is an environment that will surely be hard to replicate.”

Known for his gregarious nature, Kelce became a social media sensation during the playoffs, when he attended several Chiefs games to watch his brother, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, play. During a divisional round game in Buffalo, Jason Kelce went shirtless and chugged beers from a suite, alongside Taylor Swift.

After that divisional round game, Jason Kelce called it “one of the most fun experiences I’ve ever had. From start to finish.”

A sixth-round draft pick out of the University of Cincinnati in 2011, Kelce started for the Eagles from Day 1 – eventually playing in 193 games over his 13 seasons. Kelce leaves the game as one of the most popular players in Eagles history and a likely first-ballot Hall of Famer.

After the Eagles lost to the Buccaneers in the wild-card round, quarterback Jalen Hurts called Kelce a “legend in the city, and really in this league.”

Kelce was instrumental in Philadelphia’s Super Bowl run in 2017, when he helped lead the franchise to its only championship in a 41-33 victory over the New England Patriots. He did his part to try to push the Eagles back to another Lombardi Trophy, but the closest they came was in 2022, when Philadelphia lost to the Chiefs.

“I don’t know what’s next, but I look forward to the new challenges and opportunities that await,” Kelce concluded. “And I know that I carry with me the lessons that I learned here. And they’re forever. In that forever we shall all share the bond of being Philadelphians. That’s all I got.”

How many kids does Jason Kelce have again?

Thanks to Taylor Swift, millions of new fans have gotten to know Travis Kelce. They’ve also met Jason Kelce, his brother and fellow football star.

Jason and his wife, Kylie Kelce, are proud parents. Fans have gotten to know their little family for years on social media.

In addition to the beloved Kelce family dogs, they also have (human) children.

Jason Kelce is married to Kylie Kelce

Kylie McDevitt and Jason Kelce met on a dating app. The two ended up marrying in April of 2018.

Now sharing the surname of “Kelce” (which their family pronounces the intuitive KEL-see, unlike their KELss-favoring cousins), they formed their own family unit.

As we have previously detailed, they are a dog-loving couple. But it wasn’t long before this couple began adding human offspring as they grew their family.

Jason and Kylie Kelce have three children

Just a year and a half after Jason and Kylie tied the knot, they welcomed their first child.

Less than a year and a half later, they welcomed their second. Their third child came just after the 2023 Super Bowl, not even a full year after Baby #2. (Incidentally, doctors do not recommend this birthrate)

All three of their children are daughters. Jason Kelce has spoken excitedly about what a privilege it is to be a “girl dad” to his little ones.

Wyatt Elizabeth (October 2, 2019)

In October of 2019, Jason and Kelce welcomed their firstborn daughter, Wyatt Elizabeth Kelce. Just two months later, in December, they brought her to her first football game.

Wyatt was only four months old when she attended her first Kelce Super Bowl. There, her parents cheered on Uncle Travis Kelce as he played. As many Swifties have learned (and are still learning), Travis was fairly famous within the football world years before the two met.

Generally, Travis and Kylie don’t bring their kids to games unless Jason is playing. That year, however, they made an exception.

Elliotte Ray (March 4, 2021)

On March 4, 2021, Wyatt became a big sister with the birth of Elliotte Ray Kelce.

Interestingly, while Wyatt reminds her parents of Jason, Elliotte — according to her family — is constantly “twinning” with Uncle Travis.

Jason has noted that Elliotte seems to be braver than Travis was at her age. These brothers love to tease each other.

Bennett Llewellyn (February 23, 2023)

Jason and Kylie welcomed third child Bennett Llewellyn Kelce on February 23, 2023.

Yes, that means that Kylie was 38 weeks pregnant when Jason and Travis faced off for the 2023 Super Bowl earlier that month.

There were half-jokes about how they might name their third daughter if Kylie went into labor during the game. However, they ended up giving her the middle name of Llewellyn after Jason’s grandmother’s maiden name.

Jason Kelce excitedly reveals he has started listening to Arnold Schwarzenegger’s audiobook after interviewing the Hollywood star on New Heights with brother Travis: ‘Getting pumped up as we speak!’

Jason and Travis revealed their Hollywood plan to the Terminator actor on Wed. 
Schwarzenegger’s audiobook ‘Be Useful: Seven Tools for Life’ is now on Audible
DailyMail.com provides all the latest international sports news 

 

Jason Kelce has revealed that he has started listening to Arnold Schwarzenegger‘s audiobook after interviewing the A-list actor on his New Heights podcast with Travis.

Just a day after having Schwarzenegger, 76, as a special guest on his show, Jason tipped the Terminator actor’s advice in ‘Be Useful: Seven Tools for Life’ barely three minutes into the audiobook’s introduction on Thursday.

‘I was going to read the hard copy of the book, but when I found out I could listen to @Schwarzenegger read his own book, it was a no brainer to hear it from the man himself!!’ the 36-year-old, former Philadelphia Eagles center shared on X.

‘Getting pumped as we speak!!’

Audible – a subsidiary of Amazon – thanked Jason for sharing his rec’ by replying to his post: ‘You might have some more free time to listen to audiobooks now! Thanks for spending time with us, Jason, and congrats on such a successful career.’

On Wednesday, Jason and Travis revealed to Schwarzenegger that they are both respectively lining up careers in Hollywood, as they told the Austrian superstar that they were actually in Los Angeles interviewing for parts.

Travis also admitted to Schwarzenegger that he tried to adopt his ’80 percent vegan diet,’ but gave up after a week.

Back in November, Schwarzenegger appeared on the ManningCast during an NFL game between the L.A. Chargers and New York Jets, as he appeared to bizarrely feed his pet donkey, Lulu, live on air.

The former Governor of California also owns a pet pig called Schnelly, a mini pony who goes by Whiskey, and four puppies: Cherry, Noodle, Dutch and Schnitzel.

The animals and their owner live in a six-acre estate in Brentwood – one of L.A.’s most affluent neighborhoods.

‘I’m very fortunate that I can afford animals like that, or have the space for animals like that, or have the time now because of the coronavirus where I can stay home most of the time,’ Schwarzenegger once told Fox 5 Atlanta during the COVID-19 lockdown in 2020.

 Kylie have been spotted at Phillies game over the weekend, posing together for some heartwarming snaps together, as the retired Eagles star continues to settle into life after the NFL by throwing the first pitch against the Braves.

Jason was seen proudly taking his wife under his wing before the start of Saturday’s game in Philadelphia, as the local couple gelled with the sold-out crowd at Citizens Banks Park by wearing the team’s colors – red, white, and blue.

Then, the 36-year-old, one-time  champion to test his throwing arm, despite claiming he was injured on social media, earlier this week.

Kylie, meanwhile, took some pictures with Phillie Phanatic, the ballclub’s mascot, and Kaycee Marchetti, who was also at the game with her husband and former longtime Eagles defensive tackle, Fletcher Cox.

Jason’s latest public appearance comes nearly a month since his emotional press conference on March 4, when he  after 13 years in the NFL, with his younger brother, Travis, and his family watching on.

He has yet to commit to anything football-related since hanging his cleats, although several reports claim that the former Eagles center is being .

According to The Athletic, the network is determined to add Jason to one of its most popular shows as part of a shake-up to its pregame coverage.

Just one year after Scott Van Pelt stewarded a makeover of the set, Robert Griffin III’s place is believed to be under threat, while Hall of Fame receiver Larry Fitzgerald’s part-time role on ‘Monday Night Countdown’ is in limbo.

Fitzgerald’s contract expired in February and has not yet been renewed after executives told him they wanted to see how the rest of their lineup shapes up before making a final decision.

NBC, CBS and Amazon Prime are also keen to snap up the New Heights podcast co-host, who featured on the latter’s Thursday Night Football when the Chicago Bears hosted the Carolina Panthers back in November.

“Call it what you want but The LOVE is SWEET like Honey” – Watch Taylor Swift cheekily points to Travis Kelce mid-song at Sydney Eras Tour show: ‘That’s my man’ VIDEO

Taylor Swift showed her territorial side with a not-so-subtle gesture aimed at Travis Kelce during her Eras Tour show in Sydney, Australia, on Friday.

 

 

The pop star was singing her 2020 song “Willow” when she pointed at the Kansas City Chiefs player and sang the lyrics, “That’s my man.”

Swifties picked up on Swift’s shout-out to Kelce and cheered with delight both in the crowd and online.

“I love that she does this,” one fan wrote on X, with another adding, “We know Taylor we know that’s your man.”

The folky tune is from her “Evermore” album and is about yearning for someone’s love.

Elsewhere in her performance, Swift, 34, paid tribute to Kelce’s recent 2024 Super Bowl victory by singling him out once again.

The “Anti-Hero” singer was singing her 2010 song “Long Live” when she pointed a finger in Kelce’s direction while singing the words, “When they gave us our trophies.”

The “Catching Kelce” alum, also 34, attended night one of Swift’s Sydney concert series decked out in Eras Tour friendship bracelets on both wrists.

He watched his girlfriend bring down the house from a VIP tent and was spotted enthusiastically high-fiving fans.

Kelce’s private jet touched down in the Aussie city a day before, after which he and Swift enjoyed a cozy date at the Sydney Zoo. The couple held hands as they watched the adorable koalas.

The “New Heights” podcast co-host was seen shacking up with Swift at her $25,000-per-night presidential suite at the five-star Crown Sydney hotel that evening.

This isn’t the first time Kelce has been called out by the Grammy winner onstage.

She famously changed the lyrics in her 2022 song “Karma” from “Karma is the guy on the screen” to “Karma is the guy on the Chiefs” during the Buenos Aires stop of her blockbuster tour in November. At the time, Kelce was in the audience.

It’s no surprise Kelce has been in attendance at Swift’s concerts when his NFL schedule allowed for it considering the “Cruel Summer” artist was in the stands at many of his games this year.

Swift even flew all the way from her concert in Tokyo, Japan, to watch him win the Super Bowl against the San Fransisco 49ers on Feb. 11.

She was also cheering for her man in a VIP suite on Christmas and New Year’s Day.

Kelce and Swift started dating on the down-low in July 2023 and took their relationship public in September.

Joe Burrow has been announced as the first special guest for Travis and Jason Kelce‘s ‘New Heights Live’ show on April 11 from Cincinnati’s Nipper Stadium.

Burrow has been the Bengals starting quarterback since being selected No 1 overall in the 2020 NFL Draft.

The Kelce brothers are hoping to break the all-time attendance record for a live crowd to witness a podcast taping, which was set at just under 21,000 by Canadian comedian Mike Ward in July 2022.

 

Nipper Stadium has a capacity of 38,088, but likely could hold more if needed due to seating on the turf for a live podcast.

‘New Heights’ is Jason and Travis’ weekly podcast that has generated millions of listens around the world, many due to interest in Travis’ relationship with Taylor Swift.

Joe Burrow has been announced as the first special guest for ‘New Heights Live’ in Cincinnati

The Kelce brothers are bringing their ‘New Heights Live’ show to Cincinnati next week

More special guests are expected to join Burrow, who was a popular choice among the shows fans, to be in attendance at Nippert Stadium.

The Kelce brothers chose to bring a live show to their home state of Ohio and specifically Cincinnati due to being Bearcats alumni.

Travis Kelce played at Cincinnati from 2008-12, while Jason suited up for the Bearcats from 2006-10.

Other popular guesses for potential guests for ‘New Heights Live’ include soccer player Rose Lavelle, who is from Cincinnati, as well as Ken Griffey Jr., who used to play for the Cincinnati Reds.

Burrow missed the final eight weeks of the last NFL season after suffering a wrist injury and undergoing surgery.

In the two previous seasons, the Chiefs and Bengals met in the AFC Championship Game with Travis Kelce and Burrow going head to head.

Kansas City and Cincinnati each one won of those clashes.

Here are a few of the NFL player, his wife, and their three children’ most adorable family moments, from trips to Disney World to training camp visits.

Jason Kelce is a triple-talented father!

 

Although the Philadelphia Eagles center is well-known to fans for his on-field exploits, off the field, to three young children, he is simply known as “dad.” Wyatt Elizabeth, Elliotte Ray, and Bennett Llewellyn are the three daughters of Jason and Kylie Kelce, who are proud parents.

 

 

These are some of the cutest pictures of Jason and his five-member family, taken during their time together at training camp and on vacation at the beach.

Viewers witnessed Jason in full fatherhood during the Kelce documentary on Prime Video, during which Kylie expressed her desire that her 35-year-old husband will retire while he is still physically capable of raising their children.

 

“I always tell people that no matter what happens with football, how it ends, I would like him to retire when he’s still able to get down on the floor and play with our kids comfortably,” she said.

To celebrate their eldest’s 4th birthday, Mom and Dad threw Wyatt a mermaid-themed party complete with a giant bubble house and colorful décor.

Ahead of the 2023 season, Kylie brought all three of the Kelce gals to visit dad at the Philadelphia Eagles training camp.

Both parents shared the photo to Instagram in a joint post along with the caption: “Here for the Rita’s and obstacle courses with dad after practice.”

Jason and Kylie were sure to pack in a fun summer for their girls ahead of football season. In July, Jason’s mom, Donna, shared a collection to Instagram of photos from a family trip to Disney World, including one of the NFL player sporting a Mickey Mouse T-shirt.

Jason enjoyed an icy treat with his daughter, Wyatt, as the two walked in sync by the beach during their summer vacation.

“When people say that she looks like me, I’m going to show them this photo…” Kylie joked on her Instagram Story.

To celebrate Bennett’s 6-month birthday, Kylie shared a carousel of adorable images to Instagram, including this shot of the little one reaching up to grab Dad’s beard.

While Jason, his brother Travis and mom, Donna, were busy filming their Campbell’s Chunky commercial over the summer, they had two adorable visitors on set.

Before becoming a family of five in February 2023, the proud parents posed with Wyatt and Elliotte Ray as dad was suited up ahead of the 2022 season.

“Cherishing moments like these,” Kylie wrote on Instagram at the time.

“Straight outta the hundred acre woods,” Jason wrote on Instagram, showing off his family’s too-cute Halloween costume choices which included pregnant Kylie dressing as Kanga (with Roo on board).

Travis Kelce and pop superstar girlfriend Taylor Swift were both named among the nominees for this year´s Webby Awards, recognizing the best internet content and creators.

The International Academy of Digital Arts & Sciences announced the nominees on Tuesday, the result of 13,000 entries from over 70 countries, according to The Associated Press.

 

The Kansas City Chiefs star got a nomination in the best sports podcast category for teaming up with his brother Jason for their New Heights podcast.

Travis and his legendary Philadelphia Eagles center brother are also nominated in the Best Co-Hosts category.

Meanwhile, Swift shared an Instagram message encouraging her 283 million followers to register to vote was nominated in the best creator or influencer category. The website she directed her fans to – the nonpartisan Vote.org – recorded more than 35,000 registrations, according to the organization.

Travis’s girlfriend Taylor Swift was also nominated in the best creator or influencer category

The NFL’s power couple aren’t the only famous couple with Michelle Obama getting a nod for her ‘The Light Podcast,’ while her husband, former President Barack Obama, was nominated for his work with LinkedIn.

The awards are selected by the Academy, while The Webby People´s Voice Award is voted on by fans around the world.

Voting for that award is open now until April 18. Winners for all awards will be announced May 13 at a ceremony hosted by “Late Night with Seth Meyers” writer and comedian Amber Ruffin.

Last November, the Kelces’ New Heights show was crowned Spotify’s No. 1 sports podcast in the world for 2023.

New Heights was also the top sports podcast in America and the top American football podcast in the US, per Spotify.

The show’s meteoric rise continued last month when the popular NFL duo scooped Podcast of the Year at the iHeart Radio Awards. It beat out the likes of My Favorite Murder and SmartLess to win Podcast of the Year.

Neither brother was in attendance at the ceremony in Austin, Texas, but they did record a video message for the audience, in which Travis joked: ‘Get the f*** outta here… people actually listen to this?’

Jason then went on to thank Taylor Swift’s fans for voting for them to win – amid his brother Travis’ high profile relationship with the pop superstar.
