Jason Kelce once again found himself at the center of wild scenes while tailgating ahead of the Philadelphia Eagles‘ Black Friday game.

The Eagles, Kelce’s former team, faced the Chicago Bears the day after Thanksgiving and the retired NFL star returned to his old stomping ground, Lincoln Financial Field, to hype up fans ahead of kickoff.

Jason and New Heights, the podcast he shares with his brother Travis Kelce, hosted a special Black Friday tailgate in the parking lot of the Linc from 11am ET, including free entry on a first-come, first-served basis.

The event included food, merch giveaways, a photo booth, a DJ and games. Yet it was one challenge in particular that raised eyebrows.

The party featured a belly bucking competition, which involves two opponents using only their bellies to push each other off a circular platform, similar to sumo wrestling.

And Jason wasn’t a mere spectator as the former NFL center also got in on the action.

The former NFL center participated in a belly bucking competition amid the wild scenes

The 38-year-old stripped off his shirt, donned an Eagles football helmet and faced off against one of the competitors.

In a clip shared to New Heights’ X account, Jason was captured ramming his opponent out of the circle with his stomach, claiming victory.

Jason and his wife Kylie hosted his in-laws for Thanksgiving at their home and earlier this week had admitted that he would likely be spending the holiday doing a different type of wrestling.

‘Are you ready to host the crew?’ Jason’s brother and co-host, Travis, asked him on this week’s episode of New Heights.

‘We got Kylie’s family, we have four kids. So I’m going to have to be wrestling these kids. I don’t know,’ Jason said of his daughters Wyatt, six, Elliotte, four, Bennett, two, and Finnley, seven months.

‘There we go. That’s what I’m talking about,’ said Travis, 36. ‘All fours. Get on all fours. Just start wrestling,’ he joked.

‘Dude, it’s gonna be a long day,’ said Jason. ‘Just start wearing them down,’ Travis advised.

Jason previously made headlines with his past tailgate partying amid his first season as an NFL analyst on ESPN’s Monday Night Football.

On that occasion, he certainly made the most of his status as an ex-player as he was seen tossing beers to fans.

In another moment, he could be seen enthusiastically dancing onstage in an all-green tracksuit – and some fans were questioning whether or not he’d be in a condition for TV in a few hours.
