Legendary Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce is adding a late-night show host to a growing list of his post-retirement gigs.
During a recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Kelce confirmed that he will host his own late night show They Call It Late Night with Jason Kelce on ESPN starting in January 2025.
“I loved late-night shows. I’ve always loved them. I remember sleepovers watching Conan O’Brien with my friends,” Kelce said. “We’re going to have a bunch of guys up there: legends of the game, friends that I played with, coaches, celebrities.”
Kelce’s late-night show will run for five episodes and coincide with the end of the NFL’s regular season and playoffs. It will air on Friday nights, being taped in front of a live audience in Philadelphia’s concert venue Union Transfer.
Jason Kelce spent the entirety of his 13-year NFL career with the Eagles before retiring at the end of the 2023 season. He helped the franchise win Super Bowl LII while making seven Pro Bowls and earning six First-team All-Pro nods.
After retiring, Kelce signed a multi-year contract with ESPN. He is part of the network’s Monday Night Countdown program while also hosting a successful podcast with his brother and Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce.
