Jason Kelce Says He’s Trying to Attend Both AFC, NFC Conference Games

Jason Kelce is stuck between a rock and a hard place when it comes to deciding which NFL conference championship to attend.

“This is something that I’m still trying to figure out,” Kelce, 37, 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.”

The Philadelphia Eagles, the team Jason previously played for until his 2024 retirement, will face the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship on Sunday, January 26. Several hours later, the AFC title game will take place between Jason’s brother Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs and the Buffalo Bills.

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

According to Jason, he might “be able to see both” depending on potential travel plans.

Travis, 35, has faced retirement speculation throughout the 2024-2025 season — but frequently shuts it down. In multiple press conferences, Travis has made it clear that he still enjoys getting out on the football field each week and stressed that he is focused on sharing the latest title game milestones with his teammates.

“Don’t let the lights blind you,” the tight end said in a Friday, January 24, press conference of his advice for Chiefs rookies. “It’s a big moment you’re going into. Hype it up yourself because you’ve been dreaming about moments like these. The biggest thing is that you’re good enough [and] you don’t got to be anybody that you’re not. You don’t got to force yourself to be greater than who you are.”

Travis added, “We work our tails off to be exactly who we are and it’s now time to go out there, have fun and just cut it loose. Don’t let the lights shorten your steps or stutter your feet.”

The winners of the respective title games will face off in the 2025 Super Bowl next month. If the Chiefs beat the Bills on Sunday, they will have the opportunity to become the first NFL team in history to win three consecutive Super Bowls. The No. 1-seeded football team won back-to-back Super Bowl championships in 2023 and 2024.

Travis, who won his first NFL championship in 2020, isn’t focused on potentially shattering records just yet.

“I haven’t heard anybody talk about anything ‘three-peat’ [or] anything like that,” he said in an ESPN interview earlier this month. “Anybody can get beat in the playoffs if you don’t come in with the right mentality and the right mindset dating back to training camp and throughout the season.”
