Jason Kelce Meeting With Several Networks About a Potential Move to a Broadcasting Career
The Eagles center, who has not yet committed to playing next year, met with both networks this week in Las Vegas. CBS, NBC, and Amazon could join the hunt if he retires.
Michael McCarthy of Front Office Sports also reported earlier this month that Kelce met with Fox and ESPN to discuss a potential post-playing career in television.Those discussions were considered preliminary, McCarthy added. A recent report claimed the 36-year-old had been ‘making the rounds’ with various networks in Las Vegas during Super Bowl week about a potential move to the broadcast booth.
Kelce also recently said that if he decided to get into coaching he would do so at either high school or NFL level but not college because of the necessary time commitment.
Kelce appeared on Amazon’s Thursday Night Football broadcast during the Eagles’ bye week this season. His recent discussions with Fox and ESPN were described as a preliminary ‘testing of the water.’ The article also states that Amazon, NBC and CBS would pursue Kelce, 36, if and when he commits his future to broadcasting.
