Patrick Mahomes couldn’t resist poking fun at Jason Kelce’s dance moves after the retired Philadelphia Eagles center unleashed some wild choreography during a pregame celebration. The 36-year-old former NFL star took the stage ahead of the Eagles’ Monday night home game against the Atlanta Falcons and confidently busted out some quirky dance moves to the delight of the crowd. The moment, which was captured by ESPN, quickly went viral on social media.
“Jason Kelce is BACK in Philly,” ESPN posted on X (formerly Twitter), alongside a clip of Kelce energetically running in place as techno music blared from a DJ booth.
Dressed in a green terrycloth tracksuit and white sneakers, Jason fully embraced the moment, jumping around to the beat and moving with no inhibition.
While fans loved seeing Jason living it up, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes couldn’t resist having a little fun at his expense. Mahomes, a teammate of Jason’s younger brother Travis Kelce, re-shared the video on his own X account with a playful caption. “Go crazy then!!” Mahomes wrote, adding five crying-laughing emojis to drive home the light-hearted nature of the roast.
Jason, however, wasn’t fazed by Mahomes’ teasing. He responded with a humorous reply, acknowledging their history together. “Hahaha you’ve seen this first-hand!!” Jason wrote, showing that the two have shared plenty of fun moments over the years.
While Mahomes jokingly called out Jason’s dance skills, fans on social media had a different reaction. Many were quick to praise Jason for his carefree attitude and bold dance moves. “This is what peak male performance looks like,” one fan commented on X, celebrating Jason’s confidence. Another wrote, “The Kelce Bros have the moves,” giving a nod to both Jason and Travis for their energetic personalities on and off the field.

Jason’s ability to laugh at himself and embrace life after football has endeared him to fans even more. One person on X summed up the mood by saying, “Dude’s living his best life. LFG.”
Jason Kelce retired from the NFL in March after a stellar 13-season career, all spent with the Philadelphia Eagles. He was selected by the Eagles in the sixth round of the 2011 draft and quickly became one of the league’s top centers. Jason earned a Super Bowl ring with the Eagles in 2018 and was part of the team that reached the 2023 Super Bowl, where they faced off against his brother Travis and the Kansas City Chiefs.
Despite the loss, Jason remains a beloved figure in Philadelphia, and his impact on the franchise is undeniable.
Since stepping away from the game, Jason has kept busy with his podcast, “New Heights,” which he co-hosts with Travis. The show has been a huge success, recently securing a $100 million deal with Amazon’s Wondery. Additionally, Jason has made appearances on ESPN, offering his insights and commentary on the NFL.
In his personal life, Jason is enjoying more time with his family. He married his wife, Kylie Kelce, in 2018, and together they have three daughters: Wyatt, 4, Elliotte, 3, and Bennett, 1. The Kelce family continues to be a fan favorite, with Jason’s larger-than-life personality shining through both in his post-football ventures and his role as a dad.
For now, Jason seems perfectly content enjoying his time off the field, dancing, laughing, and living life to the fullest—even if that means getting a little good-natured teasing from Patrick Mahomes along the way.
