Jason and Travis Kelce have made history on the field. The brothers quickly ascended to superstars at their own positions, won Super Bowls with their teams and even faced one another in the big game. But their off-the-field game has gotten even stronger in recent times.
Their podcast New Heights is looking for a deal in the range of $100 million, according to Anne Steele of the Wall Street Journal. The numbers have been excellent, their content is top-notch and they have created a strong bond even with the casual fans who don’t follow the NFL as much.
The same article from Steele points out that discussions have been held with Wondery to host the show, but nothing is done at this point. One would think that, for the deal to get done, the editorial freedom of both Kelce brothers would have to be retained – especially because that’s what makes the show so great.
It will also be important to see if something changes around the New Heights dynamic with Jason now retired from the NFL. As for Travis, he’s looking to become part of the first-ever team to win three straight Super Bowls with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2024.
Jason and Travis Kelce’s career: brothers on and off the field
Jason is the oldest and was a center for the Philadelphia Eagles for the entirety of his career. He played from 2012 to 2023 and, apart from being a great player, also became a locker room leader. He helped the team win its first-ever Super Bowl in the 2017 season, and became known nationwide due to his speech in the Eagles’ parade.
Travis was drafted a year later and ascended to the heights around the discussion of the greatest tight end to ever play the game. He has been with the Kansas City Chiefs for his entire career, won three Super Bowls alongside Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid and shows no signs of slowing down.
Two great players – and two great people – made one of the best podcasts there is about the NFL. We hope to see the Kelce show going long after they walk away from the game.
