Former Philadelphia Eagles offensive lineman Jason Kelce has never been one to shy away from oversharing, especially when it comes to stories that leave fans laughing—and maybe a little grossed out. On the latest episode of the “New Heights” podcast, hosted by Jason and his brother, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce, Jason had the perfect setup to reveal an embarrassing but all-too-relatable story from his NFL career.
The conversation kicked off with the Kelce brothers discussing Detroit Lions linebacker James Houston’s pants from this past Sunday. Observant viewers noticed a suspicious brown stain on the back of Houston’s white pants, which led to speculation that Houston may not have made it to the bathroom in time during the game.
Rather than shy away from the topic, Jason Kelce defended Houston, saying that such incidents are far from uncommon in the NFL. “This is why I hate white pants,” Jason said. “This is not the first time this has happened. I know many players this has happened to.”
Jason went on to explain that these types of mishaps are simply part of the game and the physical toll it takes on players. The combination of pre-game nerves, intense physical exertion, and the pressure of performing in front of thousands of fans can lead to some, well, unexpected outcomes. And as Jason would reveal, he has experienced it firsthand.
“Travis, you and I both know he didn’t sit on no Gatorade,” Jason continued, referring to Houston’s situation. “Not in that exact specific spot. We all know what that is. And he has nothing to be ashamed of. I am here to have your back, James. I did this before a game once. You know when you fart, and there’s that slight possibility something came out, but you’re not certain?”

Jason laughed as he recalled the moment, admitting that sometimes players have to deal with these embarrassing situations on the field.
The story, while cringeworthy, was also relatable to anyone who has ever found themselves in an awkward predicament. His ability to be candid and laugh at himself has made Jason Kelce a fan favorite, both on the field and as a podcast host.
Travis, however, seemed less than thrilled with the turn the conversation had taken. Clearly uncomfortable, he responded, “OK, I’m done talking about [expletive] yourself,” bringing the topic to an abrupt close. His reaction only added to the humor of the moment, with fans enjoying the dynamic between the two brothers—one willing to spill all the details, and the other trying to maintain a sense of dignity.
Jason’s honesty about his embarrassing game-day mishap highlights just how real the physical and emotional demands of professional football can be.
The pressure to perform at the highest level can lead to some unexpected situations, and Jason’s willingness to openly share his experience reminds fans that even the toughest athletes are human.
It also speaks to the bond between the brothers, who are comfortable enough to rib each other over the most awkward of subjects.
The “New Heights” podcast has become known for these kinds of lighthearted moments, with Jason often leading the charge into more humorous—and sometimes cringeworthy—territory. Whether it’s sharing stories from their time in the NFL or giving fans a behind-the-scenes look at their lives, the Kelce brothers are never afraid to get real with their audience.
There’s no guarantee that this will be the last time Jason Kelce brings up an uncomfortable or embarrassing topic on the podcast.
In fact, it’s almost certain that fans can expect more hilarious anecdotes from the outspoken former lineman. And whether Travis likes it or not, Jason’s candid storytelling is part of what makes the “New Heights” podcast such a hit, giving listeners a genuine glimpse into the lives of two NFL stars who aren’t afraid to laugh at themselves—even when it comes to discussing their most embarrassing moments.
