Jason Kelce’s wife Kylie reveals adorable way four-year-old daughter recognizes the Eagles center by his jersey number

In the likely event that the Philadelphia Eagles eventually retire Jason Kelce’s jersey, they might want to consider ‘sixty number two’ rather than his actual No. 62, as is the preference of his four-year-old daughter Wyatt.

This nuanced distinction was revealed by Kelce’s wife, Kylie, who explained to People Magazine that their oldest child typically spends gamedays trying to spot her dad on television. Only instead of identifying him by his position (the center is the guy who hikes the ball to the quarterback, Wyatt), the young Philadelphian relies on her dad’s jersey number, which has its own hurdles.

‘It’s funny,’ Kylie told People, while promoting her partnership with HoneyBaked. ‘She enjoys watching here and there. We like to look at the TV for times when Jason might have his helmet off or Uncle Trav [Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce] might have his helmet off. Those are the moments where I can really suck them into a game because then they don’t look like every other person on the field.

‘When their helmets are off, they can say, ”Oh, that’s definitely dad,’ Kylie continued. ‘Wyatt has recognized Jason’s number on his jersey. She calls it ”sixty, number two,” instead of 62. But same thing, she knows what she’s looking for.’

Whether Wyatt knows it or not, Kelce ranks among the most recognizable offensive linemen in football. And even those who are unfamiliar with the sport might know the 36-year-old Eagles center through his popular podcast, recent inclusion in People Magazine’s ‘Sexiest Men of the Year’, or his brother Travis’ romantic relationship with pop star Taylor Swift.

Jason and Kylie have three daughters, including Bennett Llewellyn, 8 months, and Elliotte, 2

Naturally, Jason’s daughters also get the thrill of finding Uncle Travis when the Chiefs are on television.

‘Anytime they see red teams on the TV, they say, ‘Are we cheering for the red team?’ Because usually, we’re watching Uncle Trav,’ Kylie said.

Jason and Kylie have three children, including daughters Bennett Llewellyn, 8 months, and Elliotte, 2. The couple has been married since 2018.

According to Kyle, Wyatt, Bennett and Elliotte are all advancing as football fans, albeit slowly.

‘You can see how they’re picking up on those small hints and cues and learning how to watch football,’ Kylie said.

‘But I would say when it comes to watching the actual game, our middle Elliotte — actually, it’s the strangest thing — will cheer at the right times where it’s almost as if she understands the game.’
