Jason and Kylie Kelce pose together for heartwarming snaps at Saturday’s Phillies game after the retired Eagles star threw the first pitch before Braves game – as he settles into life after NFL
Jason and Kylie have been spotted at Phillies game over the weekend, posing together for some heartwarming snaps together, as the retired Eagles star continues to settle into life after the NFL by throwing the first pitch against the Braves.
Jason was seen proudly taking his wife under his wing before the start of Saturday’s game in Philadelphia, as the local couple gelled with the sold-out crowd at Citizens Banks Park by wearing the team’s colors – red, white, and blue.
Then, the 36-year-old, one-time Super Bowl champion got onto the mound to test his throwing arm, despite claiming he was injured on social media, earlier this week.
Kylie, meanwhile, took some pictures with Phillie Phanatic, the ballclub’s mascot, and Kaycee Marchetti, who was also at the game with her husband and former longtime Eagles defensive tackle, Fletcher Cox.
He has yet to commit to anything football-related since hanging his cleats, although several reports claim that the former Eagles center is being ‘aggressively pursued’ by ESPN to join its Monday Night football cast.
According to The Athletic, the network is determined to add Jason to one of its most popular shows as part of a shake-up to its pregame coverage.
Just one year after Scott Van Pelt stewarded a makeover of the set, Robert Griffin III’s place is believed to be under threat, while Hall of Fame receiver Larry Fitzgerald’s part-time role on ‘Monday Night Countdown’ is in limbo.
Fitzgerald’s contract expired in February and has not yet been renewed after executives told him they wanted to see how the rest of their lineup shapes up before making a final decision.
NBC, CBS and Amazon Prime are also keen to snap up the New Heights podcast co-host, who featured on the latter’s Thursday Night Football when the Chicago Bears hosted the Carolina Panthers back in November.
