During one of their recent podcasts, Jason Kelce told brother Travis, he is not happy about the idea of losing his favorite painkiller. “My man, every freaking time, I will show over here giving pink pills a bad name. Pink pills had to help me get through 13 years,” he exclaimed.
While Travis tried to convince Jason to come back to the original topic, exclaiming pills are not the only issue in the league, Jason was quick to defend his stance, arguing those trying to stop the use of ‘pink pills’ are just retired players who are out of touch with the realities. “All these guys trying to stop pink pills and all those, these are just guys that have been out of the league. Stop ruining it for people that are still playing,” he exclaimed.
However, Travis warned Jason not to take any of the pills out of anger, as it could have serious consequences. “Aren’t you dare take any of that out, yeah, because then I start to get,” he cautioned.
Kelce brothers’ banter takes center stage
But for Jason, the potential ban is no laughing matter. He even hinted at retirement if he was unable to continue taking the pink pills. “I’m gonna have to retire. That’s what’s gonna happen. A kid vitamin T in pink pills is getting year 13. That’s its only chance. You think I’m playing 13 years in the NFL on turmeric and beet juice? Get the out of here,” he added.
Despite his reliance on ‘pink pills’, Jason did acknowledge the importance of other health practices such as drinking beet juice and taking ginger shots. But for him, the pink pill is the key to his success on the field. “If I don’t get the pink pill, let me tell you, I ain’t practicing. It’s gonna be a bad day,” he declared.
From witty banter to lighthearted conversations about daily life, the podcast of the Kelce brothers provided a much-needed break from the seriousness of the NFL news cycle. While recent news of the NFL draft trade, money, and unfortunate events for some talented rookies may have left many feeling disheartened, episode 37 of the ‘New Heights’ podcast offered a refreshing change of pace.
