It may be the Eagles’ bye week, but at least one Eagle will be working in football this week. All-Pro center Jason Kelce revealed on Wednesday’s episode of the New Heights podcast that he will be part of Amazon’s Thursday Night Football telecast from Chicago for Bears-Panthers.

Kelce said he “can’t wait” to serve as a guest analyst alongside host Charissa Thompson and former NFL players Ryan Fitzpatrick, Richard Sherman, Tony Gonzalez, and Andrew Whitworth. The Eagles star joked that “typically you go to warm places in the bye, we’re going to go Chicago, a little bit different.”

Of course, Amazon produced the well-received documentary Kelce, which followed Jason and his family last season as he pondered retirement during the Eagles’ run to Super Bowl LVII. Kelce said during those conversations with Amazon that they discussed him potentially hanging out for a broadcast down the road.

It has been a big week off the field for Kelce, who on Tuesday was named one of People magazine’s “Sexiest Men Alive.”
