Jason Kelce Reveals Who He’d Root for in Another Eagles Vs. Chiefs Super Bowl
The former Eagles center shares if he’d root for his brother or his previous team.
Now that Jason Kelce has officially hung up his helmet, fans are wondering how dedicated he’ll remain to his beloved Philadelphia Eagles in all of the NFL seasons to come.
The former center opened up about his loyalties on this week’s episode of New Heights, when one fan asked Jason who he’d be rooting for if the Chiefs and the Eagles make it back to the Super Bowl together now that he’s retired during their weekly “No Dumb Questions” segment.
You may guess that he’d root for the Chiefs, assuming his brother is still an active player on the team when the hypothetical matchup occurs, but it’s actually a no-brainer to say once an Eagle, always an Eagle.
“I will root for the Eagles, of course, because I will always be an Eagle first and foremost,” he asserted, before clarifying, “I’ll also root for Travis to have a good game, of course, because he’s my brother, but, no, I’ll definitely be cheering on the Eagles in this scenario.”
“Well, good luck to your Eagles,” Travis said stoically, before moving on to the next question.
But while Jason will cross his fingers for his NFL alma mater, we’re sure he’ll put on an equally excited face for Travis should his team prove victorious again, seeing as when the Chiefs beat the Eagles in Super Bowl LVII, he was quick to embrace and congratulate his brother, rather than sitting in despair after his team’s loss.
Plus, once the Eagles were out of the 2023 season, he was front and center, all decked out in Chiefs gear, to see them move up through the AFC championship before taking home the Vince Lombardi Trophy at Super Bowl LVIII.
