Travis and Jason Kelce think they may have another budding host in the family.
The current and former NFL stars and co-hosts of the popular “New Heights” podcast reacted to the latest appearance on TODAY by their mother, Donna Kelce, by saying she’s a natural.
America’s football mom is rapidly becoming a regular on TODAY, most recently sharing her top picks for Mother’s Day gifts this year.
“Mama Kelce got on the TODAY show, yet again,” Travis Kelce said in the latest episode of “New Heights” released May 1. “She might as well host this f—— thing, are you kidding me?”
Hosting is rapidly becoming part of the family business alongside football. Jason Kelce is joining ESPN’s “Monday Night Countdown” show after retiring from the Philadelphia Eagles, while Travis Kelce will host an upcoming game show on Amazon Prime Video called “Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?”
While admiring their mother’s on-camera skills on TODAY, they also realized she made a valid point about one of their shortcomings.
Donna Kelce was asked by Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb during her appearance on April 29 if her sons are good gift givers when it comes to Mother’s Day.
“Boys usually are not,” she said. “I’m very rarely in the same place they are on Mother’s Day because it’s their offseason, so they’re off and running and doing their own thing. But that’s OK, I’ve had so many blessings that I don’t even care.”
The former Philadelphia Eagles star lineman and the current Kansas City Chiefs All-Pro tight end acknowledged that it hasn’t been their strongest department over the years.
“Mom was on the TODAY show to share some Mother’s Day gift ideas, and she was also asked if the two of us are good at Mother’s Day gifts. Are we gift givers?” Travis Kelce asked.
“Don’t ask Kylie,” Jason Kelce said, referring to his wife. “I am a bad gift planner and giver.”
“At least she was honest, and she didn’t just keep us like we’re unhuman,” Travis Kelce said about their mom.
