Jason Kelce Keeps Word To Bills Mafia After Retirement

Recently-retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce is living the dream in a way Buffalo Bills fans would be proud of.

Longtime Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce has been one of the NFL's biggest party animals for more than a decade, and Buffalo Bills got to see that firsthand in the playoffs.

Kelce visited Highmark Stadium to support his brother, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, during a Divisional Round game against Buffalo, but he was still a man of the people that day. Jason tailgated with Bills Mafia before the game, and during it, he stole the show with his shirtless antics inside his suite, even jumping out of the suite at one point.

Despite all the fun he had in Orchard Park that day, Jason said he regretted not being able to partake in the Bills Mafia tradition of jumping through a table.

“I was hoping I was going to get an opportunity and it just didn’t arrive," Jason said on his New Heights podcast. "Maybe next time. Next time, Buffalo. I was wishing. No tables though. No tables... Had who knows how many beers over at Big Tree and then through the tailgate. Dude, I don’t know what I was expecting, but everybody was beyond excited to have a good time and enjoy some football... Man, it was awesome.”

Then in February, the New Heights X account ran a poll asking users which team had the better name: the Bills or the Chiefs. Jason responded to that post with a bold promise - that if the Bills won that poll, he would jump through a flaming table in classic Bills Mafia fashion.

Jason Kelce, a six-time All-Pro who will likely be in Canton one day, may not have ever played in Buffalo, but he's earned his spot as an honorary member of Bills Mafia.
