Jason recently retired from the Philadelphia Eagles, who beat the Washington Commanders before the Chiefs game to earn a spot in the Super Bowl.

With Super Bowl LIX approaching, former NFL player Jason Kelce, brother of Travis Kelce, reflected on his comments from last year about who he was rooting for in a potential rematch between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Chiefs made it to their fifth Super Bowl in the last six years after breaking the hearts of Josh Allen and the Bills in Sunday night’s AFC title game thriller while the Eagles made easy work of the Washington Commanders in a historic 55-23 blowout to crown themselves NFC champions.

Jason Kelce had to make a difficult choice on Sunday between showing up for his former team, the Philadelphia Eagles, in the NFC championship game and watching his brother Travis and the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC championship game.

Jason Kelce opens up about who he'll really be rooting for in Super Bowl 59 between Travis Kelce and the Philadelphia Eagles.

Kelce, a former Eagles center and six-time All-Pro, naturally has his heart with the NFC franchise, but his brother, Travis, plays for the Chiefs. So it is going to be an odd day for Jason, who has already lost to Travis in a Super Bowl, which was the last time the two teams faced off in the decider.

It started on Friday when Kelce's new ESPN show "They Call It Late Night with Jason Kelce" filmed at Union Transfer in Philadelphia. His focus then shifted to ESPN's "Postseason NFL Countdown" on Sunday before the Eagles game, during which Kelce was seen tailgating with fans outside Lincoln Financial Field.

Jason Kelce made his way from Philadelphia—where his former team clenched a ticket to the Super Bowl—before heading to Kansas City to see Travis Kelce and the Chiefs secure their spot.

The tight end’s older brother Jason retired after playing 13 seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles last year. Before Travis entered training camp in June 2024, Jason suggested that this would be the time when his younger brother would figure out when to retire.

Jason Kelce previously shared whether he would support his brother Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs if they make their return to the Super Bowl against his Philadelphia Eagles.

The Kansas City Chiefs have a chance at history. Kansas City is just under two weeks away from taking on the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl with its third straight Super Bowl. This would be National Football League history and the Chiefs obviously have a chance to accomplish it.
