KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI: ESPN football analyst and former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce got out of his suit and challenged three former US Navy SEALs to a push-up competition ahead of 'Monday Night Football'.

Three former Navy SEALs decided to square off in the end zone as part of the Veterans Day celebrations on ESPN's 'Monday Night Countdown' prior to the Los Angeles Rams versus Miami Dolphins game.



 

Jason Kelce competes with three Navy SEALs in push-up competition

Former Super Bowl winner Jason Kelce, known as one of the most entertaining TV personalities, faced off against three Navy SEALs in a push-up contest that tested the competitors' limits.

Following the commercial break, Kelce was spotted wearing a yellow Golds Gym vest instead of his normal outfit. The gym is widely recognized for turning out some of the top bodybuilders with Arnold Schwarzenegger as one of its former members, reported The Mirror.

After that, the competition began, with a minute allotted for doing as many push-ups as possible. Despite his strong performance and managing to do 54 push-ups, Kelce was awed by the veterans.

In the end, the victorious veteran completed 93 push-ups, compared to 83 and 77 for the others. After exclaiming "I'm so fat" throughout the tournament when he started to struggle, Kelce was happy with his score and declared, "I'm taking that."

Kelce's coworkers were heard saying, "This is nothing... oh, he's going crazy, he's going crazy," as the former NFL star used all of his might to try to win the challenge. "Fight, Jason, fight!" waved Ryan Clark, a former NFL player and another ESPN analyst, per Marca.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeated Kelce in his last season, 32–9, but he continued to attend Kansas City Chiefs games during the playoffs.

Kelce witnessed his brother, Travis Kelce, win Super Bowl LVIII before deciding to become an NFL commentator for ESPN.
