NFL Network Signs Jason Kelce In Analysts Role


Jason Kelce will make his regular-season NFL game analyst debut this coming season, joining play-by-play announcer Dave Pasch and Hall of Famer Kurt Warner in the booth for four of NFL Network’s seven games. 

The former Philadelphia Eagles center, who has served as a studio analyst on ESPN’s Monday Night Countdown since retiring after the 2023 season, will expand into live game commentary as part of ESPN’s handling of the NFL Network package.

The Pasch-Warner-Kelce trio is scheduled to call the Indianapolis Colts vs. Washington Commanders matchup in London on Oct. 4, the Eagles vs. Jacksonville Jaguars also in London on Oct. 11, the New Orleans Saints vs. Pittsburgh Steelers in Paris on Oct. 25 (the NFL’s first game in France), and one of the two Week 16 games on Dec. 26. 

The remaining three NFL Network contests will be handled by Bob Wischusen and Louis Riddick: Texans-Jaguars in London on Oct. 18, Bengals-Falcons in Madrid on Nov. 8, and the other Dec. 26 game. 

Kelce has built a prominent media presence since leaving the field, co-hosting the popular New Heights podcast with his brother Travis and appearing regularly on ESPN programming. Pasch and Warner share prior chemistry from Warner’s playing days with the Arizona Cardinals, when Pasch served as the team’s radio voice. 

The assignment allows Kelce to call an Eagles game for the first time in his broadcasting career and reflects ESPN’s continued investment in him during the final year of his current three-year contract.
