Jason Kelce hilariously gatecrashed an NFL meeting to Commissioner Roger Goodell’s delight.
In a video posted by the New Heights X account, Kelce walked in unannounced as Goodell held a meeting in what appears to be the NFL headquarters in New York City.
Upon seeing the former Philadelphia Eagles center, Goodell quickly stood from his seat to greet Kelce with a handshake and a hug. After exchanging pleasantries, Kelce proceeded to tease Goodell over the NFL schedule.
‘What’s going on with the schedule? Are we almost there?’ Kelce jokingly asked.
‘You can’t say ‘we’ anymore,’ Goodell said with a smile, citing Kelce’s recent retirement. After Goodell playfully grabbed his arm and hit him on his shoulder, Kelce teased a possible return and quickly retracted.

Goodell also teased Kelce with the Eagles-Packers game scheduled for Brazil in September
‘Maybe, I mean, hey,’ Kelce said, to which Goodell answered: ‘Oh, you’re coming back?’
‘No, I wish,’ Kelce replied.
Goodell then pitched the NFL’s first game in Brazil to entice Kelce to return to the field and respond to his question about the schedule. While keeping unretirement off the table, Kelce entertained the idea of making the trip.
‘I want to, I really do,’ he said. ‘I went for the [FIFA] World Cup in 2016 and absolutely loved it. So I would go back.’
On a recent episode of the New Heights podcast, Kelce raved about his experience in Brazil during the 2016 World Cup. He and his brother Travis also playfully debated over Lionel Messi playing for Argentina and his current stint with Inter Miami in Major League Soccer.
‘I’m not saying it’s not good for MLS, I’m not saying it’s not great, I’m saying it’s not as good,’ Jason said. ‘I’m not saying it sucks that he’s playing in Miami, it’s awesome for the MLS, it’s great for American soccer.
The NFL will play it’s first international game in Brazil at Corinthians Arena in Sao Paulo
The full schedule will be announced on May 15 and aired on the NFL Network and ESPN2
‘I’m just saying it’s nowhere near when he scores a goal for Argentina and the entire country is erupting and cheers because it means more to Argentina than any other sport on the planet.’
The NFL announced a game between the Eagles and the Green Bay Packers on September 6 at the Corinthians Stadium in Sao Paulo. Additionally, they announced the opening game starring an AFC championship rematch between the Kansas City Chiefs and Baltimore Ravens on September 5.
The league also released two more Week 1 showdowns and two Week 2 matchups. The full schedule release will air on ESPN2 and the NFL Network on Wednesday, May 15, at 8pm ET.
