Jason Kelce gets candid with weight loss journey amid ‘morbidly’ obese comment

Jason Kelce, former Philadelphia Eagles center and Super Bowl champion, recently discussed his weight loss journey in a candid interview. Kelce, who stood at 6-foot-3 and weighed 270 pounds after retiring, shared that he is technically obese, with a BMI of 33.7 according to the NIH's body mass index calculator. Despite his weight loss, he emphasized that it has significantly improved his mobility and comfort, particularly in areas like his back and knees.

Kelce revealed that he has lost around 25 pounds since retiring from the NFL in 2024. He has been open about his weight loss on his New Heights podcast and shared that he aims to maintain a weight between 250 and 265 pounds. Kelce's focus on his post-NFL physique has led him to join ESPN's Monday Night Countdown and the premiere of his show, "They Call It Late Night with Jason Kelce" in January 2025.
