Jason Kelce retired this offseason after a stellar career with the Philadelphia Eagles. He made his name as a durable center and since calling time on his playing days, he has been seen on TV in various guises. He has been part of ESPN’s programming on Monday Night Football and his popularity has been cultivated by various brands looking to sell their products.

This has led to some fans complaining about Jason Kelce’s ubiquity on their television screens. However, the former Eagles center took the criticism in his stride and fired back on X/Twitter. He said that even his kids are tired of seeing him every day and wrote,

“Couldn’t agree more, how is it even possible to film that many commercials. Wyatt sees enough of me, she doesn’t need to see more of Dad’s face or shitty jokes in 4K! She does love Hank though”

Fans could see even more of Jason Kelce going forward

The reason Jason Kelce is sought after by networks and other brands is not just because of his sporting success but also due to his personable nature. He has shown that he is well-received by the podcast audience that he hosts with his brother, Travis Kelce.

That popularity was exploited by ESPN when they gave him a contract to be one of the faces of Monday Night Football, but they are not looking to stop there. Hence, people already sick of seeing him on their screens could be in for a bumpy ride going forward.

As per the latest reports, Jason Kelce is being tapped to appear every Friday as the host of a late-night show. He is going to interview various celebrities and athletes and the whole program will be produced by NFL Films and licensed to ESPN.

The former center is not the only one parlaying his popularity and fame into a successful broadcasting career. Tom Brady is now a regular feature on TV screens as he has transitioned into being an analyst for games being broadcast on FOX. Meanwhile, Peyton Manning and Eli Manning practically invented how to package their brotherly camaraderie that can translate into a successful TV career with their regular ManningCast take on Monday Night Football.

Now, it is Jason Kelce and Travis Kelce who are following that footprint with a successful podcast. The former Eagles’ Super Bowl winner is also taking it up a notch with various appearances on shows and commercials, while his brother still plies his trade in the NFL.
