Retired Philadelphia Eagles Star <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jason-kelce">Jason Kelce</a> is headed to “Monday Night Countdown” on ESPN as CBS announces a shakeup in its “NFL Today” crew.
The host of the hugely successful “New Heights” <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/arnold-schwarzenegger-tells-kelce-brothers-the-one-movie-he-regrets-passing-on">podcast</a> &#8211;&#8211; which he cohosts with brother Kansas City Chief’s star Travis Kelce &#8212; will officially start his TV broadcast career alongside hosts like Scott Van Pelt, Robert Griffin III, and Larry Fitzgerald of the popular pregame show beginning with the 2024 NFL season, <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/jason-kelce-tv-gig-espn-nfl-1235886108/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according</a> to The Hollywood Reporter.
Kelce was one of many current and former NFL players who participated in last year’s NFL broadcast boot camp, the outlet noted. During the camp, the league teaches players all about broadcasting and Kelce was seen as a star performer.
Exactly where Kelce would land has been a hot topic during the offseason following his announcement in March that he was walking away from the league after 13 years.
Multiple networks were reportedly pursuing him due to the popularity of the Kelce brothers&#8217; <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/business-news/podcast-travis-jason-kelce-wins-prize-iheartpodcast-awards-1235850321/">podcast,</a> which was launched in September 2022, <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/jefffedotin/2022/12/02/how-travis-kelce-and-jason-kelces-new-heights-podcast-comes-together/?sh=71ce38845bc4">Forbes</a> noted.

The changes over at ESPN come after CBS announced that two of the longtime hosts of “The NFL Today,” retired NFL players Phil Simms and Boomer Esiason, were <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/nfl-today-matt-ryan-phil-simms-boomer-esiason-cbs-1235886006/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">leaving</a> the show, per The Hollywood Reporter. The network announced that the former NFL MVP QB Matt Ryan will move to the pregame desk alongside Bill Cowher, JJ Watt, James Brown, and Nate Burleson for the upcoming season.
“Matt had an outstanding first year at <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/t/cbs-sports/">CBS Sports</a>, excelling as both a studio and game analyst,” CBS Sports president and CEO David Berson said in a statement.

“He is the consummate team player and a Hall of Fame person,” the statement added. “We love the chemistry he has with the studio crew, and we’re excited to see him entertain NFL fans and share his passion, insight and perspective alongside JB, Nate, Coach and JJ.”
“Phil and Boomer set the standard of excellence for NFL analysts,” Berson continued. “We are so grateful for their immeasurable contributions to CBS Sports. We genuinely thank them for being incredible teammates and for their passion, dedication and commitment to elevating CBS Sports’ NFL coverage every season.”
Simms joined CBS in 1998 and was the lead game analyst until he moved to the studio in 2017, while Esiason was on “The NFL Today” for 22 years, the outlet noted. Both their CBS contracts expired after the Super Bowl in February, the <a href="https://apnews.com/article/nfl-cbs-ryan-simms-boomer-20f9cdd8b2b2ff894f06f3c9443da3b5">Associated Press</a> noted.
“Great 26 yrs run with CBS SPORTS,” <a href="https://x.com/PhilSimmsQB/status/1784943898923524327">Simms</a> captioned his post on social media. &#8220;Even though that part of my career is over I look forward to what is next.”

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/travis-kelce">Travis Kelce</a> joked that he has no idea how he won over his current girlfriend, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/taylor-swift" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Taylor Swift</a>, noting that she &#8220;wasn&#8217;t even into sports.&#8221;
During the Kansas City Chiefs star player&#8217;s &#8220;New Heights&#8221; <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycerVWCQk9g">podcast</a> on Wednesday with brother Jason Kelce, their guest host rapper/comedian Lil Dicky asked the Kelce brothers how they were dealing with all the attention they&#8217;ve received since Travis and the &#8220;Love Story&#8221; hitmaker started dating. (1:16:55)
&#8220;It&#8217;s not changed that much for me,&#8221; Jason Kelce replied, while his brother Travis said, &#8220;It&#8217;s fun&#8221; and said that he&#8217;s &#8220;having a blast in life, baby.&#8221;
&#8220;Just flying high, enjoying it all,&#8221; the Chiefs star continued. &#8220;Bringing new lives to the football world and opening up the football world up to new things.&#8221;
Lil Dicky — born David Andrew Burd — called the superstar couple&#8217;s romance &#8220;the best thing ever.&#8221;

&#8220;I think there&#8217;s just something that makes everyone feel like the world is like high school, where your most popular pop star beloved musician somehow how met your most popular beloved athlete and they actually fell in love and it&#8217;s just real,&#8221; the rapper added. &#8220;Anyone who hates on it is like a bitter loser. &#8230; There&#8217;s something so American about it.&#8221;
&#8220;I appreciate it, man,&#8221; Travis replied. &#8220;I don&#8217;t know how I did it because she wasn&#8217;t into sports, so I don&#8217;t know how the f**k I did it.&#8221;
Lil Dicky interjected, &#8220;Well you did because you called her out on …&#8221; referencing what <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/taylor-swift-finally-spills-details-about-travis-kelce-romance" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Swift</a> told fans about how impressed she was after Kelce gave her a shoutout on his podcast last summer.

&#8220;No, I know exactly how I did it,&#8221; Travis replied.
During the NFL offseason, Kelce and the &#8220;Blank Space&#8221; hitmaker have spent time together in the States and abroad after he traveled to support Swift at her &#8220;The Eras Tour” concert shows in Australia and Singapore.
Swift and Kelce recently got back from a vacation in The Bahamas. Photos surfaced online showing the two holding hands, kissing in the water, and enjoying themselves as Swift is currently on a break from her worldwide &#8220;The Eras Tour&#8221; until May, when the European leg of the tour starts.
The &#8220;Shake It Off&#8221; hitmaker and Kansas City tight end have been linked together since last summer.
It was previously believed the two had their first date after she attended his game on September 24. However, Swift later made it clear their relationship started weeks before and they were a couple by the time she went to his first game, as previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/taylor-swift-finally-spills-details-about-travis-kelce-romance">reported</a>.

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/arnold-schwarzenegger-democrats-want-to-f-up-every-city-in-america" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Arnold Schwarzenegger</a> stopped by the Kelce brothers’ podcast and revealed that the one movie he regrets passing on during his long career in Hollywood is &#8220;The Rock.&#8221;
During the 76-year-old actor&#8217;s appearance on the &#8220;New Heights&#8221; <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_L3uUKyoWE">podcast,</a> that hit YouTube on Wednesday, retired NFL star <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/greatest-gift-jason-kelce-celebrates-being-a-father-in-retirement-announcement" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jason Kelce</a> asked the former Gov. of California if there was any movie he passed on that he wished he had taken. (30:45)
&#8220;There was a movie called &#8216;The Rock&#8217; with Sean Connery,&#8221; Schwarzenegger replied, with the former Philadelphia Eagles star making it clear he knew it well. &#8220;So, they came to me with a script that was only 80 pages, instead of 120 which normally scripts are.&#8221;
&#8220;With a lot of handwritten scribbles in it,&#8221; he added. &#8220;And they tried to explain it to me, &#8216;Oh, this is what we are going to write.&#8217; So, I said, &#8216;Look guys why don&#8217;t you just come back when it&#8217;s finished?&#8217; I said, &#8216;This is half-baked. I&#8217;m not going to make a commitment.&#8221;&#8217;
The &#8220;True Lies&#8221; star said he also had 3 other movies lined up at the same time that he had to do in the &#8220;next year and a half&#8221; so he told them he was going to be keeping busy doing that.
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Arnold Schwarzenegger on His Iconic Movies, Sculpting a Retirement Body and Being Useful | Ep 84" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/s_L3uUKyoWE?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
The Hollywood star said they then left and it was Nicolas Cage who famously got the role in the movie alongside screen legend Connery.
&#8220;He [Cage] took it … and did a great job with it,&#8221; Schwarzenegger said. &#8220;And the movie was fantastic even though I was not in it. Nicolas Cage did a fantastic job. Sean Connery was great. The directing was great. The writing, everything was really a straight 10.&#8221;
&#8220;So, I really enjoyed the movie,&#8221; he added. &#8220;But that was one movie &#8230; I wish I would&#8217;ve taken.&#8221;
Schwarzenegger — who is known for famous roles in films like &#8220;Terminator,&#8221; &#8220;Predator,&#8221; &#8220;Commando,&#8221; &#8220;True Lies,&#8221; and &#8220;Twins&#8221;— gave his advice to the Chiefs star <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/travis-kelce-speculates-on-why-people-are-so-fascinated-by-his-relationship-with-taylor-swift" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Travis Kelce</a> and his brother Jason, who he speculated were both in Hollywood shooting the podcast because they had aspirations of having a career in the entertainment business. He said only take movie roles with &#8220;well-written scripts.&#8221;
&#8220;I’m not stupid, right? There&#8217;s a reason these guys are out here together in Hollywood,” he added, as the two brothers laughed. &#8220;There&#8217;s all kinds of interviews being scheduled for movie parts. You guys have it lined up, you just don&#8217;t want to give it away right now &#8230;&#8221;
&#8220;You&#8217;re really talented, and you speak well,&#8221; the actor continued. &#8220;And you&#8217;re full of energy and you ask interesting questions and you say funny things.&#8221;

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jason-kelce">Jason Kelce</a> is reportedly being pursued to join ESPN&#8217;s &#8220;Monday Night Football Countdown&#8221; crew following his retirement announcement earlier this month from the NFL.
Executives with knowledge told The <a href="https://theathletic.com/5371700/2024/03/27/jason-kelce-espn-monday-night-football/">Athletic</a> that a shake-up is continuing for &#8220;MNF&#8221; pregame coverage after last year&#8217;s move to have Scott Van Pelt helm the show and bring in Robert Griffin III. The spot for RGIII, who&#8217;s already on the network&#8217;s &#8220;Get Up&#8221; show, is reportedly in jeopardy with the network reaching out to score Kelce. The Philadelphia Eagles center retired last month after 13 years in the league.
Retired Hall of Fame wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald&#8217;s spot on the &#8220;MNF&#8221; pregame coverage is reportedly also in limbo, after his contract has yet to be renewed, according to those with knowledge. Fitzgerald was reportedly informed that the network was waiting to see how the rest of its pregame lineup shapes up before finalizing his deal, the outlet noted.
Marcus Spears and Ryan Clark are expected to return to the pregame show alongside Pelt.

Kelce is not only reportedly being looked at by ESPN, but other networks as well. The All-Pro center is reportedly being pursued by CBS, Amazon Prime, and NBC, the outlet noted.
Based in New York, CBS might be a good possibility for the Philadelphia-based Kelce, with Boomer Esiason, Nate Burleson, Bill Cowher, and Phil Simms still unsigned for next year, the report noted. JJ Watt and James Brown are already signed on for the upcoming season.

&#8220;I am a product of my upbringing,&#8221; Kelce said. &#8220;I think one of the best things a person can be in this world is a father. A father who is present, loving, devoted, just might be the greatest gift a child could ask for in our society.&#8221;

The six-time All-Pro center was picked in the sixth round (No. 191 overall) by the Eagles in the 2011 NFL Draft by former Philadelphia head coach Andy Reid before Reid joined Kansas City in January 2013.

L.A. Gym Slams Reports Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Left Members Outside For Private Workout

Los Angeles

NFL star <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/travis-kelce">Travis Kelce</a> is in talks to host a reboot of the popular television <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/television">game show</a>, “Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?” according to a report from <a href="https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/travis-kelce-are-you-smarter-than-a-fifth-grader-reboot-1235945977/">Variety</a>.
The new “Fifth Grader” would debut on <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/amazon-prime">Amazon Prime</a>.
The 34-year-old Kansas City Chiefs tight end has been involved in entertainment projects throughout his career, but this potential hosting gig would represent the biggest commitment so far. Sources told Variety that Kelce is still committed to playing professional football and would have a tight schedule, which could result in negotiations falling apart.
Kelce has already made his entertainment debut. He has hosted an episode of “Saturday Night Live” and appeared in the reality series “Catching Kelce.” He also co-hosts a podcast alongside his brother, Jason Kelce, who recently announced his retirement from the Philadelphia Eagles.
Kelce also guest starred in the short-lived 2020 Showtime comedy, &#8220;Moonbase 8,&#8221; featuring Fred Armisen.
The original “Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?,” produced by British “Survivor” creator Mark Burnett, premiered on Fox in 2007. Comedian Jeff Foxworthy hosted the first iteration of the popular quiz game show. After four seasons on Fox, it was moved to syndication, then rebooted and aired on Nickelodeon with John Cena as host beginning in 2019.

The new Amazon Prime reboot will differ from the original in that it will feature celebrity guests competing against children rather than non-famous contestants. 
Kelce has become even more famous thanks to his romantic relationship with pop star Taylor Swift. The NFL saw a massive boost in viewership as her fans started tuning in for games last season.
Other athletes have hosted game shows in the past, including Michael Strahan, who took on the reboot of “The $100,000 Pyramid” on ABC, and Peyton Manning, who hosted “College Bowl” for NBC and Peacock.

Jason Kelce talking about the importance of fathers in his retirement speech: &#8220;I think one of the best things a person can be in this world is a father.

&#8220;I like to think I got my toughness, aggression &amp; lunch-pail mentality from my father,&#8221; Kelce continued. &#8220;And from my mother I learned the all-too-important lesson of never letting anyone tell you what you can&#8217;t do.&#8221;
The Philadelphia star also gushed about his wife and said that it is &#8220;no coincidence&#8221; that he&#8217;s &#8220;enjoyed&#8221; the &#8220;best years&#8221; of his career because Kylie was by his side. 
&#8220;Every accolade I have ever received has come with her in my life,&#8221; Kelce said. &#8220;She has brought the best out of me through love, devotion, support, honesty, intelligence, and of course a swift kick in the a** from time to time.&#8221;
&#8220;She has also given me three beautiful girls and a life that increasingly brings me more fulfillment off the field than it does on,&#8221; he added. &#8220;We&#8217;ve had a great run Ky.&#8221;
At the start of the presser, Kelce addressed why he &#8220;chose football&#8221; and what drew him to the game in the first place so long ago.
&#8220;The best way I could explain it is what draws you to your favorite song &#8230; your favorite book,&#8221; Kelce said. &#8220;It&#8217;s what it makes you feel. The seriousness of it. The intensity of it. Stepping on the field was the most alive and free I had ever felt. There was a visceral feeling with football, unlike any sport. The hairs on my arms would stand up. I could hit somebody, run around like a crazed lunatic and then get told, &#8216;Good job.&#8217; I love football.&#8221;
He then closed out his presser by saying, &#8220;I&#8217;m retiring from the NFL after 13 seasons with the NFL … That&#8217;s all I&#8217;ve got.&#8221;
The six-time All-Pro center was picked in the sixth round (No. 191 overall) by the Eagles in the 2011 NFL Draft by former Philadelphia head coach Andy Reid before Reid joined Kansas City in January 2013. The Philadelphia player helped lead the Eagles to a Super Bowl LII victory in 2018 against the New England Patriots.

&#8220;New Heights&#8221; podcast fans often get to catch a glimpse of the giant canines, and the Eagles center often posts <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BzrONumpwEI/">picture</a> of him and his pups. In one on Instagram, Kelce was holding a piece of pizza to the dogs, one of which towered over him to get it, and he&#8217;s 6-foot-3. 
In a recent podcast episode, Kylie — a cat lover — was a guest on the show, and she tried to get Travis to help convince Jason how great it would be to bring a cat into their family, making a subtle reference to Kelce&#8217;s superstar girlfriend <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/taylor-swift-makes-history-at-grammys-announces-new-album" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Taylor Swift</a>&#8216;s known love for cats.

&#8220;No, here&#8217;s the deal, I told Jason that I want to get a cat,&#8221; Jason&#8217;s wife said. &#8220;And he told me no. And I feel like you might like cats now.&#8221;

&#8220;Ky tweeted this or Instagrammed this and immediately, I googled ‘how to lose a cat.,'&#8221; Kelce said, referencing his wife&#8217;s comments. &#8220;Nothing came up.

I want to lose it, and I&#8217;m surprised that there was nowhere to research good ways to accidentally lose a cat.&#8221;

&#8220;Did you guys see Travis Kelce&#8217;s version of &#8216;Friends in Low Places?'&#8221; Garth said on the show. &#8220;Did you see him sing this? I loved it, I thought it was fantastic.&#8221;
&#8220;It blew me away because I&#8217;m sitting there watching it as it&#8217;s going down, right?&#8221; he added. &#8220;I never expected that.&#8221;
&#8220;Big man, I&#8217;m just telling you this. I will be at [the] grand opening if you&#8217;re there,&#8221; Brooks continued. &#8220;I&#8217;ll send a plane if you want and come and get another shot at the title. If you want to come sing that, I&#8217;ll send a plane.&#8221;
The &#8220;Thunder Rolls&#8221; hitmaker said Kelce could come alone, or bring his teammates, or even his brother Jason Kelce, noting that the plane holds 11 people.
&#8220;So, yes, I&#8217;ll be happy to send this invite out to you if you want to try a little &#8216;Friends in Low Places&#8217; in Friends in Low Places,&#8221; Brooks said. 
The invite comes after Kelce, who had been noticeably celebrating the team&#8217;s Super Bowl victory, took the mic at the rally and asked fans if they knew the song to join in and sing along.

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/nfl">NFL</a> brothers Travis and <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jason-kelce">Jason Kelce</a> recently addressed the deadly <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/mass-shooting">shooting</a> at the celebratory parade following the Kansas City Chiefs winning <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl LVIII</a>.

&#8220;Attention 92%ers, we have a pre-recorded episode for you guys coming up on Wednesday, but after the tragic events of the Super Bowl parade in Kansas City, it didn&#8217;t feel right without you guys hearing from us first,&#8221; Travis, tight end for the Chiefs, said in the intro.

&#8220;We just wanted to say our hearts go out to all of the victims, their families, Chiefs Kingdom, and really all of Kansas City that was really there on a day to try and celebrate the community,&#8221; Jason, who just retired after playing center for the Philadelphia Eagles, added.
&#8220;It&#8217;s unfortunate, and deeply tragic the events that occurred. So we want to thank the local law enforcement that sprang into action, the first responders on scene, and anybody that&#8217;s been willing to help those affected by this tragedy,&#8221; he continued.
Travis told fans they could help by contributing to an emergency response fund that was set up. 
Jason also shared praise for the community and how it came together in the wake of the tragedy.
&#8220;One of the beautiful things that we have in doing this podcast is the wonderful community out there — the 92%ers — everybody that watches this show,&#8221; he said.
