Back in 2011, the Philadelphia Eagles couldn't have known the extent of what they were getting when they selected Cincinnati center Jason Kelce in the sixth round.
Fast forward to today, and Kelce ranks among the greatest players in franchise history.
The Eagles made sure they took care of Kelce during his 13 seasons, and he parlayed his perennial All-Pro status into multiple lofty contracts.
He and his wife, Kylie, have kept busy since his retirement in 2024, and they’re far more than the brother and sister-in-law of Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift.
Here’s a closer look at Jason and Kylie Kelce’s career earnings:
Jason Kelce’s Career Earnings in the NFL

Jason Kelce's net worth exceeds $60 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth, though Kylie does not have a publicly available net worth. Based on the surface-level numbers, that total is conservative.
On the field, Spotrac values Kelce’s football earnings at nearly $82 million over a 13-year professional career.
Kelce entered the NFL as a 2011 sixth-round pick in the first year of the standard rookie contract determined by when and where a player was drafted. In Kelce’s case, that meant a four-year, $2.1 million deal with nearly $100,000 guaranteed at signing.
Ahead of his contract season, the Eagles inked Kelce to a six-year, $37.5 million extension in February 2014. He received roughly $10.4 million in guaranteed money, and he rewarded the Eagles with his first Pro Bowl season.
Kelce restructured his contract in 2019, with the Eagles giving him a $7.5 million signing bonus and $17.5 million in guaranteed money. Beginning in 2021, he signed three consecutive one-year deals before retiring in March 2024.

Kylie's media career has taken off since 2024, notably as an influencer and social media personality through her “Not Gonna Lie” podcast. The show, which began in December 2024, already has over 500,000 subscribers on YouTube.
Jason found himself in the media spotlight even sooner, co-hosting the popular “New Heights” podcast with his brother, Travis. The show started in Sept. 2022 and now boasts over 3 million subscribers on YouTube alone. It reached a three-year distribution deal with Amazon's Wondery in 2024, reportedly worth more than $100 million.
Jason also currently serves as an NFL analyst on ESPN’s “Monday Night Football” coverage, for which he inked a three-year, $24 million contract in 2025.
Additionally, the sports power couple also owns multiple properties, including a $6 million Pennsylvania estate and a $2.2 million beachfront property on the Jersey Shore, according to Realtor.
Jason Kelce’s NFL Career Achievements
Kelce is up for the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2028, and it’s difficult to envision him not being elected within his first three years on the ballot. He earned six first-team All-Pro honors, all coming within a seven-year stretch from 2017 through 2023.
Kelce won a Super Bowl with the Eagles in 2017 and played in another following the 2022 season.
“I’ve been asked many times why did I choose football, what drew me to the game, and I never have an answer that gets it right,” Kelce said upon retiring.
“The best way I can explain it is what draws you to your favorite song, your favorite book. It’s what it makes you feel … the seriousness of it, the intensity of it. Stepping on the field was the most alive and free I had ever felt.”
