The event, which raises money for the Eagles Autism Foundation, was hosted by Jason and his wife Kylie, and included a celebrity drinking tournament.
Among those to compete were fellow current and former NFL stars Tucker, Beau Allen, Connor Barwin, Sydney Brown, and Carl Nassib among others.
The event kicked off with a game of flip-cup, with Kylie and Jason commentating for the fans.
However, following Nassib’s departure after the first event, Jason stepped up.
The second event was beer ball, during which an exuberant Tucker somehow injured himself.
At one point, Kylie interrupted proceedings to point out the blood above his right eye.
“Can I just ask where the blood is coming from? It’s above your eye!” she commented.
Kylie went on to ask for someone to “get this man a band-aid please,” but he continued to compete.
After the win was secured for teammates Barwin and Tucker, who now had blood smeared on his shirt, the former offensive lineman turned to Kylie who had a band-aid ready.
The competition was closed out with a baby bottle beer chug, which Allen ultimately won.
“The Celebrity Beer Bowl was pure insanity,” read the caption of a teaser montage from the event on Jason’s New Heights podcast’s X account (which he co-hosts with his brother and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis).
Tucker subsequently retweeted the post, jokingly commenting, “This must be like watching the @NFLFilms Super Bowl video when you know you won.”
As for the champion, Allen chimed in by commenting, “I cannot explain to you guys how miserable the baby bottle chug was. Truly sadistic.”
To which Tucker added, “Worst ‘chug’ of my life which is saying something.
“The beer wasn’t even cold. I want to know whose idea that was.”
‘It was a short retirement!’
Jason Kelce didn’t stay retired in the NFL for long.
The former Philadelphia Eagles lineman called it quits after the 2023 season.
But he will be part of ESPN’s coverage on Monday Night Football in 2024.
Kelce will appear on Monday Night Countdown from 6pm-8pm ET every week as well as during the halftime show.
“Turns out, it was a short retirement!” he joked.
“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.
“And, I mean it’s freaking Monday Night Football! and I’m ready for some football.”
Now with the Beer Bowl done and dusted for the year, Jason’s attention will likely turn to the upcoming NFL season.
Having retired in February, Jason later joined forces with ESPN.
There he will become a part of their Monday Night Football crew.
Jason’s deal with the network is worth $1.8 million annually and includes a $1 million sign-on bonus.
