“Behind the Gridiron: Jason Kelce’s Family Ties Explored in Amazon Prime Documentary, Unveiling the Impact of Football Injuries on Home Life”
In a compelling new Amazon Prime documentary delving into the intricacies of Jason Kelce’s personal and professional life, the spotlight is on his family and the pivotal role they play in shaping his decisions.
As the feature-length film, titled “Kelce,” unfolds the narrative of the Philadelphia Eagles center’s journey through the 2022-2023 NFL season, a poignant scene captures the intersection of Kelce’s on-field injuries and their reverberations at home. Kylie Kelce, his wife, offers an intimate glimpse into the challenges and dynamics that define their family life.
“I don’t think people realize the beating you’re taking then impacts the way you interact with your family,” she says in a confessional.Jason plays with toddler daughters Elliotte, 2, and Wyatt, 3, when Kylie, 31, tells her oldest, who throws herself around as she sings the team’s cheer, that she needs to give her dad a break, “because dad did a lot of hard work yesterday.”
“He’s been telling me for years that he was going to retire and now we are expecting our third daughter,” she adds.
“I always tell people that no matter what happens with football, how it ends, I would like him to retire when he’s still able to get down on the floor and play with our kids comfortably.”
In addition to Elliotte and Wyatt, the couple is also parents to daughter Bennett Llewellyn, 6 months.Jason has shown he makes time for his daughters no matter the time of year, being spotted earlier this summer playing with the older pair on the field after training camp.
“@jason.kelce always stays late after practice to play with his daughters ,” they captioned the video, captured by CBS’ Jeff Kerr.
While most people found the moment endearing, a few commenters suggested that the center was just passively “playing fetch” with his daughters.Kylie responded by reposting the video on her Instagram Story. “People in these comments saying ‘He’s playing fetch with his kids like they are dogs!’” she wrote.
“Just say you don’t have toddlers,” she continued. “If you listen, you can hear him counting. So technically, they are racing.” She also added a silly goose sticker to the post.
