“Not an ounce of game!”: Kylie Kelce exposes Jason’s awkward flirting days before their romance bloomed

Jason Kelce may be a household name in the NFL and a beloved figure in Philadelphia, but his journey to love was far from smooth. Known for his strength on the field and his larger-than-life personality off of it, the former Eagles center surprised fans when he confessed something unexpected on a recent episode of the New Heights podcast: when it came to dating, he had no game whatsoever.Jason and his younger brother, Travis Kelce, welcomed their mother, Donna Kelce, onto the show for a special Mother’s Day episode, diving into their early years before NFL fame. The conversation turned candid when Jason asked Donna if she ever liked his previous girlfriends. Without missing a beat, she replied, “Jason, you really didn’t bring a lot of ladies home.” The honest answer caused Jason to quickly pivot, exclaiming, “Yeah, no, we got it, Mom, okay!” while Travis burst into laughter.Despite the light-hearted embarrassment, Jason owned up to his past dating struggles. “I had absolutely zero game, and I looked like an overweight Oompa Loompa. That’s why I didn’t have any girlfriends,” he admitted with a laugh.Interestingly, Jason’s wife, Kylie Kelce, backed up his self-deprecating claim. In the comments section of a New Heights Instagram post that featured the clip, Kylie wrote, “Can confirm…still not an ounce of game. I find it very charming,” complete with a blushing emoji surrounded by hearts.Her playful honesty only added to the charm of their relationship. Jason, never one to back down from a good-natured tease, fired back in the comments, “My game is so good, you don’t even know it’s happening! 😏”The episode gave fans a deeper look into the tight-knit Kelce family dynamics. Donna explained that although both her sons dated during college, she rarely got to meet any of their partners. “You dated, but I didn’t know any of them,” she said. “Same thing with Trav. I met one or two, but I didn’t know anybody that you guys were dating. I knew nothing of anybody that you guys were dating in college. You told me zero.”But one woman did change everything for Jason—Kylie. The two first connected on Tinder back in 2014, proving that sometimes love really does begin with a swipe. They tied the knot in April 2018 and now share four beautiful children: Wyatt, Elliotte, Bennett, and newborn Finnley.While Jason may have once lacked confidence in dating, he clearly found the right teammate in Kylie. Their playful exchanges and genuine affection continue to charm fans, showing that while he may not have been a “player” in the dating world, he certainly scored big in love.Meanwhile, Jason’s brother Travis has also made headlines for his high-profile relationship with pop superstar Taylor Swift. Since going public in late 2023, the couple has turned heads with their unwavering support for each other.In the end, Jason Kelce’s love story proves that sometimes, having “zero game” is exactly what it takes to win someone’s heart.Also Read: "Everyone tries it, we're just...": Saquon Barkley defends tush push ahead of NFL vote, sends blunt message to opposing teams
