Right now, it’s unknown if Jason Kelce will play for the Eagles again in the future. Following the team’s January playoff defeat, rumors circulated that Kelce would hang up his boots. However, a few weeks later, the future Hall of Famer revealed he was still unsure about his future.

According to Michael McCarthy of Front Office Sports, the 36-year-old center, who was selected to the First Team All-Pro six times, is at least considering a career after football.

McCarthy claims that Kelce recently had early talks about the prospect of an on-air role with Fox and ESPN, though those discussions were not confirmed. McCarthy notes that Kelce has discussed a position on Thursday Night Football with Amazon Prime Video during a meeting.

McCarthy’s sources say that NBC and CBS are also expected to have interest when Kelce officially hangs up the cleats, so it sounds as if he will have no shortage of television options if he chooses to go that route.

Although he has long been one of the best pivots in the game, the relentless media coverage of brother Travis Kelce‘s relationship with Taylor Swift, along with Jason’s memeable antics during the Chiefs’ divisional round victory over the Bills this year, have made Jason a recognizable face among the public at large.

And the New Heights podcast that Jason and Travis co-host is, as McCarthy observes, one of the most popular sports podcasts in the country.

Jason, who has contemplated retirement for several years now, is out of contract, having just finished the one-year, $14.25MM deal he signed last March (one day after he announced he would return to the Eagles). If he decides to continue playing in 2024, he and the Eagles will need to work out a new pact, but negotations between the two sides would likely be quick and painless.

If he instead opts to leverage his newfound visibility into a full-time media career, Philadelphia would presumably shift 2022 draftee Cam Jurgens to center (Jurgens was the club’s starting right guard in 2023, though he missed some time due to a foot injury).

Of course, Jason’s acceptance of a broadcaster/analyst post could impact his stated desire to remain with the Eagles in a front office or coaching capacity.
