Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce has reportedly met with ESPN and FOX Sports to explore a potential TV career after he retires

Jason Kelce is enjoying the 2024 NFL offseason, and while he enjoys Las Vegas ahead of the Chiefs-49ers Super Bowl, the All-Pro center looks more and more closer to retirement.

Front Office Sports reports that Kelce has met with ESPN and FOX Sports as he gauges a potential post-retirement career in television.

The New York Post reports that Amazon, NBC, and CBS also might express interest in Kelce.

Kelce has already appeared on Amazon Prime’s Thursday night broadcast, and he’s a part of one of the top podcasts, The NewHeights Podcast, with his brother, Travis Kelce.

A sixth-round draft pick out of the University of Cincinnati in 2011, Kelce started and played in 193 games over his 13 seasons.

Kelce is the fifth center in NFL history with at least six All-Pro selections. The other four — Jim Otto, Bulldog Turner, Dermotti Dawson, and Jim Ringo — are all in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Kelce made his first Pro Bowl in 2014 and has been named to the Associated Press All-Pro team in six of the past seven seasons.

Kelce’s forthcoming announcement could be the first of several big moves and changes for the Eagles.

The Eagles have already undergone drastic changes to the coaching staff, and with 20+ turnovers, there’s also expected to be a dramatic roster turnover.

Philadelphia’s roster has two future Hall of Famers who appear ready to walk away from the game for good.

According to Jeff McLane of The Inquirer, Fletcher Cox and Jason Kelce are leaning toward retirement.

“I still think Jason is leaning towards retirement. Obviously, he will take some time and think about it. The same applies to Fletcher Cox. He has not said anything, but other players have, and from what I am hearing behind the scenes he is probably leaning towards retirement as well.”

Adam Schefter had previously reported that Kelce was leaning toward retirement during the final minutes of the Eagles wild-card loss to the Buccaneers.
