Jason Kelce lost 20 pounds since retiring from the NFL

Jason Kelce talks about his weight loss goals during an episode of his podcast with his brother Travis Kelce.

Jason Kelce is making progress on his weight loss journey.

The former Philadelphia Eagles center recently shared with GQ that he's shed nearly 20 pounds. The 36-year-old, who weighed 295 pounds for most of his professional football career, is eager to lose more weight now that he’s retired from the NFL.

"I don't want to get too small. I think a lot of guys, especially offensive linemen, they lose too much weight, and then they look like bobbleheads because their neck gets so small, but their head stays the same size,” he told the outlet.

“So for me, I feel like for some reason, 250 to 260 feels like I'll be still big and be happy with the way I look without having a six-pack. But I’ll still be able to have that stature a little bit.”

Currently, Kelce weighs around 277 pounds, having lost nearly 20 pounds.

“It’s hard to imagine another nearly 20 lbs. coming off, being honest with you,” he admitted. “But my back already feels better. My knees already feel better. So another 20 lbs. hopefully will make that much more adept at playing with my children.”

Kelce first discussed his weight loss goals after his 13-year career during a March episode of the New Heights podcast with his brother Travis Kelce. “I look forward to getting skinny,” he said at that time.
