Why Jason Kelce doubted Simone Biles before Olympics performance
Jason Kelce admitted that before the 2024 Paris Olympics, he doubted how well Simone Biles would perform due to her age.
Jason Kelce admitted that he had some doubts about Simone Biles before her 2024 Paris Olympics performance.
The retired NFL star, spoke on his New Heights podcast which he hosts alongside his younger brother Travis Kelce about the gymnast. Jason said his source of doubt came from Biles’ age entering the Olympics which is 27 compared to a large majority of the women competing in the sport being under the age of 25.
“We watched like every [Team USA gymnastics] girl go and do the floor routine, and Simone Biles was the last person, and I’m like, you know she’s getting older. She’s a little bit… we’ll see how she looks,” the former Philadelphia Eagles player said.
Travis on the other hand was puzzled by Jason’s analysis, “There’s no way you really thought this” he said.
