Jason presents the pod alongside his brother and three-time Super Bowl champion Travis.
The Philadelphia Eagles legend announced his retirement from the NFL on Monday.
Kelce hung up his cleats following an emotional press conference in the City of Brotherly Love.
His little brother Travis openly wept in the audience as Jason bid farewell to football.
But the pair were right back to work on Tuesday, filming a daredevil trick ahead of a new episode of New Heights.
Jason is seen wearing a mask and flame-resistant overalls as he clings onto a firetruck in the viral clip.
“All right, here we go. I’m Jason Kelce. Welcome to New Heights,” he shouted, before throwing himself into the flames.
Kelce, a 282-pound center, landed in the middle of the table and broke it in half, as Travis cackled away in the background.
“Jason’s retirement is off to a hot start … literally. NEW EPISODE. TOMORROW,” the post’s caption read.
“[Jason’s wife] Kylie is gonna have grey hairs at this rate,” laughed one fan in response on X.
“Nooo he didn’t do that?!” gasped another.
“Jason Kelce no matter what is a DAWG,” wrote a third.
Kelce’s wife Kylie has revealed he had considered retiring from the NFL for the past 4 years.
In a revealing interview, the 31-year-old confirmed she was the only one to read Jason’s speech before he went public on Monday.
“I’ve heard multiple versions over the last four years,” Kylie said in an interview with NBC 10.
“This was a completely different version. I think every year he sort of started from scratch as to what was sitting on the surface.
“But when he said that he was contemplating retirement for years, he meant for years.”
