In A Documentary, Jason Kelce & Kylie Kelce Discuss Their Difficult NFL Retirement

With his many years of dedication to the Philadelphia Eagles, Jason Kelce has become one of the most well-known players in the NFL today.

Jason Kelce knows retirement is imminent because he played in one Super Bowl and lost another to his brother in 2023.

Before the Eagles’ Super Bowl loss, there was chatter that he might give up the sport. However, the agony has motivated him to stick with it for another season.

Athletes find it challenging to talk about retirement. Still, in the Amazon Prime documentary on Jason Kelce and his wife, Kylie, there is an emotionally charged sequence in which the couple openly discuss Jason’s retirement.

Jason Kelce and Kylie Kelce want to be as open as they could

Although Travis Kelce, Jason’s brother, has long provided the family with razzmatazz, the documentary has an emotional core that draws in viewers.

One of the leading causes is that Jason and Kylie both made an effort to be as genuine as possible while the cameras were running.

On his podcast with Kylie Kelce, Jason acknowledged, “It was easy to just kind of be ourselves and be as authentic as possible. I think it really made doing all the shots and being as open as possible a lot easier, working with their whole crew and staff.”

Jason discussed how the documentary represented retirement when questioned about it by Sports Illustrated.

“It’s very emotional for me. My family’s in it, my wife’s a big part of it, my brother’s a big part of it, my teammates, our coaches, the city’s a big part of it, so it strikes a chord with me very heavy.”
