Jason Kelce Reacts to Claims He’s on ‘Too Much’ TV

Some NFL fans are tired of seeing Jason Kelce on TV that much – and if so, Jason “couldn’t agree more”.

Jason, 36, who has appeared in a string of commercials since announcing his retirement of the NFL in March, expressed his own opinion via X Sunday, October 27.

His reaction was sparked by a sportswriter’s X post Dov Kleiman earlier in the day, which read “TRENDING: Many NFL fans upset about seeing ‘too much’ of Jason Kelce on TV. Do you agree?”

Jason replied: “I couldn’t agree more, how is it even possible to shoot so many commercials. Wyatt sees enough of me, he doesn’t need to see more of dad’s face or his jokes in 4K!” The post references one of his three daughters, 4-year-old Wyatt, whom he shares wife Kylie Kelce. (The pair also share daughters Ellie, 3, and Bennett, 1.)

Jason added that Wyatt “loves Hank though,” apparently referring to the fictional buffalo, voiced by Beck Bennettwhich appears in several Buffalo Wild Wings commercials.

In addition to Buffalo Wild Wings, Jason has appeared in commercials for the NFL and brands such as Tide, General Mills and Campbell’s. Several commercials also featured his brother, Travis Kelce.

Commercials aren’t the only TV spots Jason currently occupies. The former Philadelphia Eagles Center began a pregame analysis role with ESPN Monday night countdown. The weekly role means it’s regularly on screens in the countdown to Monday night football.

Also, Jason is apparently in talks to star in another project with the sports channel. A Puck report published on Thursday, October 24, claimed that Jason is in talks to host a late-night show.

More details revealed that the show will not be “a highlight or recap show” but rather a vehicle for Jason to interact with other athletes and celebrities. The report claimed the show could air on five consecutive Friday nights — 1 a.m. ET, technically — starting in January, with the network hoping the timing will allow clips from the show to go viral over the weekend.

ESPN offered no comment when approached by We weekly at the time.

Jason also provides inspiration for TV shows that don’t even star him.

Chip Gaines revealed the Wednesday, October 23 episode of Today that the inspiration behind the Magnolia Network series Man vs. hamsters came from chasing Jason. “I feel like I was inspired — it was a couple, maybe six, eight months ago — and Jason Kelce ripped his shirt off in a stadium,” Gaines said on the show. “Something about that moment inspired me about this idea: hamsters versus humans. And so, I feel like I should throw him a bone in that I feel like he was the one who inspired the whole idea.”
