If one of Jason Kellss Philadelphia Eagles teammates had a public social media page, chances are his wife Kylie invaded their privacy.
As Kylie, 32, explained on Thursday, Dec. 12, episode of her “I Won’t Lie” podcast.she uses her online stalking powers for good.
“We got to a point where we were almost stalking people on social media just to be like, ‘Have you posted with a woman recently?’ If so, we would go to her page,” she admitted. “If her page is private, we’ll ask before following her, but otherwise, if it’s public, we can see that you’re still together. We’ll just slide into your DMs and say ‘hey, you’re welcome’.”
Jason played his entire eight-year career in Philadelphia, and eventually Kylie realized she was the oldest and most experienced of all the players’ wives and girlfriends. She then set out to contact the new players’ significant others and offer them help as they adjust to life in their new city.
She explained that this was much more effective than simply having Jason ask his teammate for their significant other’s phone number. Kylie joked that if she did that, she wouldn’t get an answer for “three years.” Her guest, Alison Kuharczykwife of a former NFL linebacker Isaac Rochelleagree.
“You’ll find the phone number in a wad at the end of the football season in a shoe or something,” Kuharczyk joked.
Kylie continued, “We’ve really found that the best way to do it is to just be direct and say, ‘Hey, if you need anything, we’re here year-round.’ If there’s any way I can be of help or (something) you need advice on, or even if it’s just a restaurant recommendation, let me know.”
The hand extended to her did not go unnoticed. Kuharczyk said wives like Kylie are doing “God’s work” when reaching out to newcomers. That was especially true for Kuharczyk, whose husband played in four cities from 2017 to 2023.
Jason Kelce’s wife, Kylie Kelce, praised the community of women in the Philadelphia Eagles franchise. Kylie’s relationship with the NFL began in 2015 when she began dating Jason, who played center for the Eagles. The two met on Tinder, but Jason’s profile didn’t boast his status as a professional athlete. “None of his pictures (…)
“I have to say on behalf of all the girls who have traveled to different teams, people like you make the experience so much better and so much less lonely,” she said.
Jason retired from the NFL in 2022and Kylie said she hopes the wives and girlfriends stuck around the league have carried on the tradition. She added that even if a player is traded, someone from the player’s old team can connect a significant other with someone from the new team so they aren’t starting from scratch with each move.
“There’s a very large network of women in the NFL, and I think the best thing they can do now is continue to weave the web and make sure women feel supported and connected and can do that independently outside of their a spouse or partner,” she said.
Now in their post-football lives, Kylie and Jason still live in the Philadelphia area. They got married in 2018. and have three daughters, Wyatt, 5, Elliott, 3, and Bennett, 1. Kylie is also pregnant with the couple’s fourth child, another girl.
