Kelce’s next steps after hanging up his helmet and shoulder pads comes with his celebrity status booming.
He and younger brother, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce, faced in last year’s Super Bowl and have hosted the popular ‘New Heights’ podcast together since September 2022.
Travis’ romance with girlfriend Taylor Swift has amplified everything Kelce to another level of mainstream appeal. And Kylie Kelce detailed the good problem Jason is going through in the early days without being an offensive lineman on ‘The Today Show’.

‘I think nothing is off the table at this point,’ Kylie said of Jason’s future. ‘He’s my husband, so I’m biased, but I think he’s so good at everything he tries, it’s kind of a pain in the butt. I think that nothing is off the table, he’s an ideas guy, so he’s letting them brew and seeing what happens.’
‘It’s not that I need to get him out of the house… he needs to get out of the house,’ Kylie continued. ‘With three children, I don’t think golf is going to cut it.’
While Kelce officially retired from the NFL last month, Kylie said Jason has been planning a life after football for much longer.
‘He has been writing his retirement speech for years. He’s been telling me he’s going to retire since we started dating nine years ago,’ Kylie said. ‘I think he understood the impact of what football has been to his life.’
Since the Eagles exited this the playoffs in the Wild Card round, Kelce has stayed in the limelight beyond his podcast.
Kelce jumped out of a luxury suite shirtless while drinking beers at the Chiefs-Bills AFC Divisional round postseason game. That was also the day Kylie and Jason met Swift for the first time.

Kelce was also drinking long into the morning after the Chiefs’ Super Bowl win.
Kylie, being married to Jason, is learning to deal with her family’s newfound spotlight.
‘It’s… interesting,’ Kylie said. ‘I am trying to take it in stride and make sure that when people are talking about me, it’s about important things. So the Eagles Autism Foundation is the perfect example.’
