<p id=”par-1_76″>If you aren’t an <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/nfl/”>NFL</a> fan, you may not have known the names Jason Kelce and <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/travis-kelce/?swcfpc=1″>Travis Kelce</a> until the latter began dating the biggest pop star in the world. Of course those who always watched <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/sports/”>football</a> on Sundays knew exactly who the brothers were long before that as they are both <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/celebrity-athletes/”>tremendous athletes</a>. But there’s no denying that Travis gained even more fame in every corner of the globe for his relationship with <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/TAYLOR-SWIFT/?swcfpc=1″>Taylor Swift</a>.</p>
<p id=”par-2_63″>In fact, the <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/traviskelceinterview.html/”>Kansas City Chiefs tight end</a>‘s whole family got worldwide recognition they didn’t have before thanks to millions of Swifties. And that has translated to people paying even more attention to them off the field with other projects like their <em>New Heights</em> podcast for which the siblings inked a deal with Amazon’s Wondery worth more than $100 million over three years.</p>

<p id=”par-3_94″>After the announcement was made the Kelce brothers released a statement via <a href=”https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/41013307/jason-kelce-travis-kelce-reportedly-sign-100m-podcast-deal” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>ESPN</a> that said: “We couldn’t be more excited to team up with Wondery for the next phase of <em>New Heights</em>.

<p id=”par-5_50″>On March 4, 2024, after an incredible 13-year career that included a <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/super-bowl/”>Super Bowl</a> win, Jason retired as the center for the <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/real-story-behind-those-photos-princess-diana-philadelphia-eagles-jacket.html/”>Philadelphia Eagles</a>.

<p id=”par-6_45″>That was the case as several reports claimed that ESPN, Fox, NBC, and CBS all tried to secure a deal to get him. Jason ended up choosing ESPN because that network gave him “full freedom” to continue working on <em>New Heights</em> podcast with Travis. </p>
<p id=”par-7_75″>Jason had this to say about joining the <a href=”https://thewaltdisneycompany.com/jason-kelce-espn-monday-night-countdown/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Walt Disney Company</a>: “Turns out, it was a short retirement! I’m excited to join ESPN, and particularly the <em>Monday Night Countdown </em>team. ESPN was a consistent presence in our household growing up and the network helped shape who I am and my love of all sports. To now appear on that same screen is a full-circle moment. And, I mean it’s freaking <em>Monday Night Football! </em>and I’m ready for some football.”</p>
<p id=”par-8_49″>While the exact details of Jason’s contract for the pregame show haven’t been released it was <a href=”https://www.the-sun.com/sport/11232659/jason-kelce-espn-contract-new-heights-clause/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>reportedly for north of $1.8 million</a> over three years with a signing bonus of $1 million. During his playing career with the Birds he earned around $86 million in total salary. </p>
