  • Super Bowl LIX jersey colors announced for Chiefs-Eagles rematch

    Super Bowl LIX jersey colors announced for Chiefs-Eagles rematch

    One of the first big reveals for this year’s Super Bowl has been dropped.

    The Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles have announced their jersey choices for this year’s game in New Orleans. 

    Just as they did for their Super Bowl matchup two seasons ago, the Chiefs will wear their white uniforms, while the Eagles will wear “midnight green” Feb. 9 at the Caesars Superdome.

    The city of Philadelphia announced the Eagles’ jersey selection, which will feature the Super Bowl LXI patch, on social media.

    Since the Caesars Superdome is the home of the New Orleans Saints, the Eagles are considered the home team as the NFC representative. So, the Eagles got to choose which jersey they want to wear first. 

    The Eagles are hoping for a different result in their green threads in this Super Bowl against the Chiefs after losing the 2023 Super Bowl 38-35 in Arizona, which began the Chiefs’ historic run for a possible three-peat.

    Harrison Butker kicked a game-winning field goal after an infamous holding call on Eagles cornerback James Bradberry, who turned Juju Smith-Schuster’s shoulder, impeding him from catching a deep ball. The flag allowed the Chiefs to run out the clock before Butker iced the victory. 

    Teams that wear white have won 16 of the last 20 Super Bowls and 64% of all Super Bowls, according to CBS Sports.

    The San Francisco 49ers were one of those four teams that wore white and lost after Mecole Hardman scored an overtime touchdown to seal back-to-back Super Bowl wins for Kansas City last season. 

    One of the biggest storylines in this Super Bowl is the Chiefs’ bid at a three-peat.

    The last team in position for a three-peat was the Tom Brady-led New England Patriots, who fell in 2005 before even reaching the AFC championship. They lost to the Denver Broncos in the divisional round.

    The 49ers were the last team to come as close as the Chiefs to a three-peat, but they failed to reach the Super Bowl after losing to the New York Giants in the 1990 NFC championship.

  • Jason Kelce showed where his loyalty lies in Chiefs-Eagles Super Bowl as old ‘New Heights’ clip resurfaces

    Jason Kelce showed where his loyalty lies in Chiefs-Eagles Super Bowl as old ‘New Heights’ clip resurfaces

    The last time the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles were in the Super Bowl, history was made with the first brothers playing in the “Big Game.” 

    This time around, Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce will not be seeing his older brother, Jason Kelce, on the Philadelphia Eagles sideline. 

    So, with no stake in the game, where does Jason’s loyalty lie: With his brother and the Chiefs or with the team he played all his 13 seasons for?

    Well, a clip from their “New Heights” podcast last March has surfaced again because Jason gave an answer to a fan question about who he would root for if the Chiefs and Eagles would play in the Super Bowl in 2025. 

    “I will root for the Eagles, of course,” Jason answered.

    “This is bulls—,” Travis responded. 

    Can anyone blame Jason after what he accomplished as an Eagles legend? 

    “Because I will always be an Eagle,” he said. “First and foremost. I’ll also root for Travis to have a good game, of course, cause he’s my brother, but nah, I’ll definitely be cheering on the Eagles.”

    While Jason has championed his brother in the past, including the Chiefs’ win over the Eagles in Super Bowl LVII, he has remained loyal to Philadelphia from that moment. 

    Will that change now that it has become a reality? “New Heights” episodes are released every Wednesday, so fans could find out this week.

    Jason was also seen in Kansas City on Sunday night wearing a No. 87 Kelce jersey at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium to support his brother.

    It came after Kelce watched his Eagles wallop the Washington Commanders, 55-23, earlier in the day.
