Jason Kelce in Talks with ESPN for Late-Night Show Hosting

Jason Kelce Eyeing Late-Night Hosting Gig with ESPN

After an impressive NFL career, Jason Kelce may soon venture into the realm of late-night television. Reports are circulating that he is in discussions with ESPN about hosting his own show. John Ourand has indicated that ESPN president Jimmy Pitaro is keen on expanding the network’s influence, and a new late-night program featuring Kelce could be part of that strategy.

Details about the show remain vague, but it is not expected to follow the typical late-night format, characteristic of hosts like Jimmy Kimmel, who engage in casual chats with celebrities and athletes. Instead, Ourand notes that it will have a different approach, steering away from being merely a highlight or recap show.

Kelce is no stranger to being in front of the camera. Aside from his popular “New Heights” podcast alongside his brother Travis Kelce, he has made appearances analyzing NFL games on ESPN’s “Monday Night Football.” If everything falls into place, his show could debut on Friday nights starting in January.

Since stepping away from professional football in March, Kelce’s presence in the public eye has only increased. As he looks to transition into a new chapter of his career, fans could soon see much more of him in this exciting role.
