The 13-year NFL veteran joins Monday Night Countdown each week (6 &#8211; 8PM ET), leading into Monday Night Football throughout the regular season and ESPN&#8217;s Super Wild Card and Divisional Round playoff games. Each Monday Night Football and ESPN playoff game, Kelce will join Scott Van Pelt and Ryan Clark during halftime.<\/p>\n<p>The six-time NFL All-Pro will also become a member of ESPN&#8217;s Super Bowl studio coverage each year, including Super Bowl LXI\u00ae in Los Angeles (February 2027) when America&#8217;s Biggest Game airs on ESPN and ABC. Additional postseason studio appearances will occur annually, including during the NFL&#8217;s Conference Championship weekend. Further opportunities will be explored.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Jason is a highly respected, Super Bowl Champion with a strong connection to fans,&#8221; said Burke Magnus, ESPN President of Content. &#8220;Walking off the field and immediately to ESPN, viewers will benefit from his perspective which has been shaped through his years as an established locker room leader and a future Hall of Fame center. Jason&#8217;s addition to Monday Night Countdown will greatly strengthen our NFL coverage.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Jason Kelce added: &#8220;Turns out, it was a short retirement! I&#8217;m excited to join ESPN, and particularly the Monday Night Countdown team. ESPN was a consistent presence in our household growing up and the network helped shape who I am and my love of all sports. To now appear on that same screen is a full circle moment.
