(Audacy) Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and Eagles center Jason Kelce are taking the world by storm. The NFL’s most famous brothers have three Super Bowl rings between them after Travis’ Chiefs took down Jason’s Eagles in February.
Jason contemplated retirement last offseason but ultimately decided to return to Philadelphia on a one-year contract. The 36-year-old Jason is now likely in his final season, and the 34-year-old Travis has hinted at retirement with everything going on around him and Taylor Swift.
Danny Parkins and Andrew Fillipponi of the Audacy original podcast 1st & Pod brought up the idea of the brothers retiring together in the offseason and becoming the first brothers to be inducted into the Hall of Fame in the same year.
“Jason Kelce is talking about how he maybe doesn’t have much time left playing in the NFL. They’ve got this burgeoning media empire, the Kelce brothers do,” Parkins said (31:15 in player above). “Travis Kelce is travelling internationally and dating the most famous woman in the world.
“Any chance the Kelce brothers retire together in the offseason so they can go into Canton together? First brothers ever to be inducted in the same year in the Hall of Fame.”
“Oh, I think that’s entirely possible,” Filipponi said. “I bet they’ve talked about it with each other.”
Jason and Travis have both spent their entire careers with their respective franchises. Jason has made the Pro Bowl six times as he's now in his 13th season in Philadelphia, while Travis has eight Pro Bowl honors as he's now in his 11th season with Kansas City.
“Did somebody tell you that or did you literally just come up with that?” Fillipponi asked.
“I was thinking about it (Sunday),” Parkins said.
“That’s one of your better ones,” Fillipponi said. “I like that one a lot.”
“That’d be a cool thing,” Parkins concluded. “It’d be fun.”
Both Kelce brothers are hoping they can go out on top after their last Super Bowl matchup. The 10-1 Eagles and 8-3 Chiefs are among the favorites to reach – and win – the Super Bowl this season.
