But as the older Kelce brother leaves behind a legacy set in stone, he is set for a comfortable life beyond the football field. But how does his career earnings rack up against his younger brother? Here’s all you need to know!

Jason Kelce has a mountain of salaries collected

In terms of salaries collected, including base payment, bonuses, and incentives earned, elder brother Jason has the lead with more than $81 million made from his playing. While Travis is not that far behind, with almost $77 million to his name.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Jason is worth $30 million, while his younger brother Travis is worth $40 million. Despite earning more through playing, Jason lags behind his sibling in terms of net worth.

Jason was drafted by the Eagles in the 2011 NFL Draft. But Travis came two years later, being drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in 2013. And while Travis continues to play on, Jason has stepped down, making his retirement official via a press conference. Hours before announcing his retirement, he took to X (formerly Twitter) and wrote, “No Keg videos this year, I have come to a decision and will address it at a press conference this afternoon.”

This was a reference to his previous retirement announcement in 2023 that took place on the radio. It sent his fans into a frenzy. But the older Kelce kept his promise, and no kegs were used during his official announcement. Now, in the wake of his retirement, let us also look at Jason Kelce’s endorsement deals.

Jason hasn’t dabbled too much into the world of endorsements. Even though his successful podcast with his brother, ‘New Heights’, features brands every week, it is the individual endorsements where Travis Kelce has a leg up over his elder brother.

Jason has endorsed brands such as Old Spice and Papa John’s. The 7X Pro Bowler has shied away from big-name deals. But 9X Pro Bowler Travis has some of the biggest endorsements in the game today with brands such as McDonald’s, Nike, Pfizer, LG, and many more under his belt. The 3X Super Bowl winner’s net worth has expanded because of these deals.
