Jason Kelce Says Playing Brother Travis and the Chiefs Was Always ‘Annoying’ for This Reason

Jason joked about facing off against his brother and the Chiefs in previous seasons during ESPN's "Monday Night Countdown" broadcast

While the Kelce Bowl was fun for fans, Jason Kelce reveals he never loved playing against his little brother Travis Kelce in the NFL.

On the Nov. 25 episode of Monday Night Countdown, Jason, 37, was asked by his ESPN co-host Scott Van Pelt what it was like competing against his brother Travis, 35, on the NFL field.

"It's annoying is what it is," Jason replied, with a laugh.

The elder Kelce brother explained that it was so "annoying" to face off against Travis and the Kansas City Chiefs because they're so hard to beat.

"Because he's so good — that's why," Jason revealed. "They were very good. I was only fortunate to beat Trav once."

Jason and the Philadelphia Eagles' sole win against Travis' Chiefs came on Nov. 21, 2023, about six months before the father of three (with a fourth on the way!) announced his retirement from the NFL.

Jason went on to reflect on his memories of playing against his little brother on the football field during Monday's ESPN broadcast — which saw the Baltimore Ravens defeat the Los Angeles Chargers 30-23 in Los Angeles.

"But when you're out there on the field getting ready to play your brother, there's just something about seeing your brother out there that you get these flashbacks going to being out in the backyard playing football again," Jason said.

"It's annoying. ... They were very good."
