Jason Kelce knows a thing or two about beating people in a 40-yard dash. The former Philadelphia Eagles center has been enjoying his post-playing life by playing golf, hosting festivals, and chugging beers with hecklers. Apart from his weekly New Heights podcast, of course. While Jason Kelce might not be on the field this season. He still is one of the fastest runners out there.

The dad of 3 daughters and dog-dad of an Irish Wolf-hound- Baloo was recently pitted against man’s best friend to see who’s faster between the two of them.

Is Jason Kelce faster than a Dachshund?

On the latest episode of the New Heights podcast, Travis and Jason Kelce discussed everything from Father’s Day celebrations around the world to how to build a football team. The Kelce brothers’ banter also included Jason Kelce being challenged by a fan to race against her dog Louie.

The fan who was nominated for the podcast challenge by Travis Kelce. Wrote to the show via social media platform ‘X’ saying, “@killatrav What an honor to be mentioned on the podcast! Challenge? How about a race between @jasonkelce and Louie? Let’s see if you can outrun those tiny legs and endless energy. G Make it happen in Texas or Philly 🙂 #DachshundDerby @newheightshow”. To this, Jason Kelce merely shrugged his shoulders and said, “First of all, I’ll beat the f*** out of Louie. Very confident”

We’re not here to take sides, but let’s be honest, it is after all, the Eagles’ tush-push secret sauce. Kelce followed it up by saying that he was down to do a forty-yard dash with Louie, the dachshund. Given that Jason Kelce has been living life vicariously since bidding adieu to the gridiron. It shouldn’t be a surprise that the Kelce Brothers are hosting a dog race somewhere in Texas or Philly.

While the preparations for a dog race are still in the planning stage. Travis and Jason Kelce are hosting the Beer Bowl on June 27th.
