Breaking: Jason Kelce set to announce his decision on his NFL future TODAY. Press Conference in a Moment

Jason Kelce has revealed he’ll announce his decision on his NFL future in a press conference on Monday afternoon. He posted on X on Monday morning: ‘No Keg videos this year, I have come to a decision and will address it at a press conference this afternoon.’ The press conference is scheduled for 1pm ET.

There is rumors that Kelce will retire from football surfaced the day after the Philadelphia Eagles were eliminated from the playoffs by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in January. But he’s refused to announce a definitive decision on his future, instead supporting brother Travis throughout the postseason as the Kansas City Chiefs eventually won the Super Bowl last month. Kelce was drafted by the Eagles in 2011 and has enjoyed a sensational 13-year career.

A seven-time Pro Bowl selection, the center won the Super Bowl with the Eagles in 2018 when they beat the New England Patriots in Minnesota. During a recent interview with Dana Carvey and David Spade on their ‘Superfly’ podcast, Kelce had appeared to keep the door open for a return to the Eagles. ‘I don’t know. I’m trying to figure it out right now,’ he said. ‘Right now, exploring different opportunities if I end up retiring,’ Kelce said.

‘Still working out and staying in shape if I end up playing again.’ Travis is already in Philadelphia to be by his brother’s side when he announces the decision. The Chiefs star was spotted getting a new haircut in Philadelphia while girlfriend Taylor Swift continues to perform in front of sold-out crowds in Singapore.

The center, who hosts the ultra-successful ‘New Heights’ podcast with his brother Travis and filled in on Amazon’s Thursday Night Football broadcast during his bye week this season, looks destined for a career in broadcasting if he wants it. He’s already met with executives from Fox and ESPN, according to Front Office Sports, as he used Super Bowl week in Las Vegas to ‘make the rounds’ with networks.

Despite the lucrative offers seemingly waiting for Kelce, he recently admitted to being anxious about what life after football might look like.  It’s exciting to think about possibilities, it’s exciting to be able to lose weight, feel good and not have to physically fight for my life every day,’ Kelce, 36, said. ‘It’s also daunting. It’s anxiety. At the end of the day, it’s the unknown.
