If Jason Kelce had $1 for every time he dropped Taylor Swift’s name amid her romance with Travis Kelce he’d truly be a millionaire. But, whoops, he already is.
While Jason doesn’t have quite as much money sitting in the bank as his brother Travis, he’s sitting on tens of millions thanks to being a former professional NFL player/center for the Philadelphia Eagles—an extremely high-paying job that came with some pretty major opportunities. Like, you know, a podcast everyone suddenly became obsessed with, not to mention an entire documentary that legit broke records on Amazon Prime Video, and a giant post-retirement contract with ESPN. Let’s dig in, shall we?
What Jason Kelce Made From the NFL
Jason was drafted by the Eagles in 2011 and played so well that in 2014, he signed a six-year contract extension worth $37.5 million. Then 2019 rolled around, and the Eagles announced Jason had signed another contract extension through 2021 which put him at $11 million per year. At this point, he was considered the league’s highest-paid center—a pretty major achievement. As if this wasn’t impressive enough, in 2021 Jason upped his contract again for a deal that paid $9 million guaranteed at signing (and “potentially” up to $12 million). He celebrated the feat on Instagram—while also encouraging people to get vaccinated against COVID-19 (iconic).
In 2022, Jason extended his contract once more, this time for $14 million which again made him “the highest-paid center in the league.” And he extended again for $14.25 million in 2023. Basically, the man was unstoppable.
Ultimately, Jason chose to retire from football in March 2024, and not long after he officially joined ESPN as an analyst in a 3-year deal worth $24 million.
TL;DR: When one $$$ door closes, another $$$ door opens wide.
His (Many, Many) Endorsements
There are truly too many to count, but one of our faves is a Campbell’s Soup commercial in which Jason is joined by Travis and their mom Donna. P.S. He also works with major brands like Old Spice and Tide.
Actually, lemme just:
FYI, the income Jason earns from endorsements isn’t known due to contracts being largely private, but he has a ton of brand deals so...we’re thinking it’s likely in the millions.
His New Heights Podcast
Jason and Travis Kelce’s New Heights podcast was popular even before Travis started dating Taylor Swift, but it’s absolutely skyrocketed in the past few years—and with more popularity comes more money.
Back in 2022, Forbes noted that they were seeing 20 percent growth each week, and the podcast “commands up to 100 percent higher CPMs (the price of 1,000 advertisement impressions on one web page) than industry standard.” All that lay the groundwork for Travis and Jason signing a deal with Amazon’s Wondery in August 2024 that, per Variety, “runs for three years” and “is worth more than $100 million.”
Let’s Not Forget the Kelce Doc
When Kelce dropped in 2023, it became the most-watched documentary for Prime literally ever, according to Deadline. The amount Travis and Jason made for it isn’t known, but let’s assume they’re getting streaming residuals.
Jason Kelce’s Total Net Worth, You Ask?
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Jason Kelce has a total net worth of $50 million, which is up a whopping $20 million since the first time we reported on his wealth back in October 2023. Not! Bad!
Also this is a good time to mention that Jason has some money tied up in real estate. He reportedly owns a property in Pennsylvania that he purchased for $680,000 + 8 acres of land next door. He also has places in Sea Isle City and Cleveland.
So How Does Jason’s Net Worth Compare to Travis's?
Travis reportedly has a net worth of $90 million (you can get an entire breakdown over here), but that number should increase massively over this next year thanks to manyyyy projects coming up (not to mention him playing another season with the Chiefs).
