Jason Kelce's life after retiring from the NFL has turned into a national spectacle, captivating football fans, his podcast listeners, and even Swifties.
On Monday night, a Green Bay fan stood in the freezing stands of Lambeau Field in 30-degree weather to get on live TV. The former Philadelphia Eagles center and current ESPN analyst was in Wisconsin for Monday Night Countdown on duty to cover the Packers' home game against the Eagles, his former team.

Before kickoff, a sign for Kelce in the pre-game presentation crowd stole the show. Despite her efforts, Kelce long before declared his favorite fan of his NFL career, a McDonald's employee in Philly.

A woman bundled in a gray hat and pink coat held up a handwritten message that read, "Packer fan by marriage, not gonna lie, only here to see Jason Kelce." The sign also honored his wife Kylie, who once ranked above Joe Rogan on Apple and Spotify charts during its debut episode.

The sign featured Kelce wearing a green ESPN hoodie and a Packers cheesehead, drawing laughs, cheers, camera time, and the attention of Kelce himself. He pointed at the fan, smiled, and shouted, "Shout out to Ky," promoting his wife Kylie Kelce, and her growing Not Gonna Lie podcast empire.
Kelce showing love to the Wisconsin fanbase started way before his on-air moment. Hours before the broadcast, he was spotted handing out cheese curds at Titletown's ice rink and socializing with fans in the cold outside of Lambeau. Earlier that same morning, he appeared on Good Morning America to discuss his transition from player to broadcaster.

"You miss being out there with the guys," Kelce said. "You miss battling. But the media is a different avenue now. I get to talk to people about the game. I get to take in the whole NFL."
"When you play, you're locked in on your team and your matchup," he continued. "Now, I'm watching all 32 teams every week. It's a lot, but for the first time in my career, I'm taking it in like a fan. Holistically. And that's been fun."

Kelce also commented on Monday night's game with a prediction and said, "I think it's going to be an outstanding game, and I think Philadelphia this year is starting to find out who they are. Their identity. I'm looking forward to watching this one for sure."
The former NFL center's day shifted from cheerful to somber after his ESPN Veterans Week feature aired, which highlighted Eagles offensive lineman Tyler Steen's grandfather, U.S. Marine Sergeant Rodney Maxwell Davis.

Sergeant Davis was awarded a Medal of Honor posthumously for sacrificing his life in Vietnam by diving onto a grenade to save five platoon members.
Kelce fought back tears as he learned that Sergeant Davis left behind a 2-year-old child and sacrificed his life at 25-years-old, the same age Steen is for the Eagles today.
