Jason Kelce Calls Eagles ‘Ridiculously Good’ Post NFC Championship Win

Former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce is celebrating the NFL team’s NFC Championship win.

“Well that was fun, these dudes are ridiculously good!” Kelce, 37, wrote via X on Sunday, January 26. “GO F——- BIRDS!!”

Kelce’s shoutout came minutes after the Eagles defeated the Washington Commanders and advanced to the 2025 Super Bowl on Sunday, February 9. The Eagles will face off against the winner of Jason’s brother Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills. If the Chiefs defeat the Bills on Sunday, the NFL team will have the opportunity to become the first in history to win three consecutive Super Bowls. (The Chiefs won back-to-back Super Bowls in 2023 and 2024.)

Ahead of the matchups on Sunday, Jason admitted he was struggling to decide which NFL conference championship to attend — AFC or NFC.

“This is something that I’m still trying to figure out,” Jason said on the Saturday, January 26, episode of ESPN’s They Call It Late Night. “I’m working [for ESPN] at the tailgate for the Birds game, which I’m excited about. Initially, they were gonna make me go up to Bristol, but then they were like, ‘Do you just want to stay down there and be a reporter on the scene?’ I’m really fired up to be there.”

Jason, who played for the Eagles from 2011 until his retirement in 2024, said he wanted to attend his former team’s game but was “kind of torn.”

“I want to be there for the Eagles, but I also want to be there for my brother,” Jason explained. “I don’t know how many more he has. We’re flying by the seat of our pants!”

Jason shared that he might “be able to see both” depending on travel plans. Travis, for his part, has faced retirement speculation for the 2024-25 season but has continued to shut down the idea.

One day before Travis, 35, took the field for the AFC Championship game, he told reporters that he “laughs at” concerns that he’s showing his age. “As long as I’m going out there and we’re winning, baby, that’s all that matters,” the Chiefs tight end said during a press conference on Saturday, January 25.

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes weighed in on the idea that the game on Sunday could be Travis’ last at Arrowhead Stadium.

“I have no idea. He hasn’t said anything to me if he’s thinking that,” Mahomes, 29, said Tuesday, January 21, on Kansas City’s 96.5 The Fan. “I know he signed a two-year extension before the season. It seems like he still loves football. But he also has a great life, as well.”

Mahomes continued, “Either way, I just appreciate every time I step onto the field with that guy knowing that he’s a true legend of not only the Chiefs, but of the NFL. If it is his last game, let’s go out there and get him a win. If it’s not his last game, let’s go out and get him a win anyway.”
