Jason Kelce is enjoying brother Travis Kelce’s final football season.
On Saturday, August 17, the Philadelphia Eagles tight end praised the Kansas City Chiefs tight end for his great start to the NFL preseason.
“Behind the back passes, Carson Wentz touchdown throws, Nate Sudfeld touchdown throws,” Jason, 36, posted on X (formerly Twitter), adding, “This is up there with my best preseason games yet.”
The behind-the-back pass was completed by Travis, 34, and his teammate, running back Patrick Mahomes, during the game against the Detroit Lions. Mahomes, 28, used the move as a ploy to throw Travis the ball.
A subtle addition resulted in a successful first day for the team.

Jason previously praised the real-time moment on Xu, writing, “This dick really nailed it!! Magic Mahomes.” He also reposted a video of the amazing moment for fans to see.
“Now that it’s done in the pre-season, I’ve got a fever and I need more cowbells,” added Jason.

Mahomes joked that he made the trick out of spite. “Travis didn’t run the route he was supposed to run, and then it was kind of a behind-the-back pass, kind of because I was mad,” he said in a video shared on the Chiefs’ Instagram.
– Out of spite, I threw the dog behind my back – added the future father of three children.

Jason also praised fellow ex-Eagle as he praised his former teammate, Carson Wentz, who is now a backup for the Chiefs.
Jason and Wentz, 31, played together for the Eagles from 2016 to 2020. He completed one of the touchdowns during the Aug. 17 game.
Nate Sudfeld, who is running back for the Lions and had a successful touchdown yesterday, also played for the Eagles with Jason from 2017-2020.
