Jason Kelce threw a late-night bash — and he brought his wife, his parents, a fan with a Phillie Phanatic tattoo inked on his navel, a Philly band and an uncensored (at least on stage) take on sports for the first of five episodes of “They Call It Late Night with Jason Kelce” on ESPN.
Former NFL player and ESPN analyst Jason Kelce performs his opening monologue during the taping of "They Call It Late Night with Jason Kelce," in Philadelphia on Jan. 3.
Kelce was already omnipresent on television and social media, so what was one more gig to add to his resume?
So “Late Night” was born.
“I knew I wanted NFL Films because I felt like we wanted to make a show that celebrated the NFL landscape,” Kelce said.
