Though retired from the NFL, Jason Kelce still earned a touchdown of sorts against Olympian Nicole Heavirland in an arm-wrestling challenge.
On Sunday, July 28, the 29-year-old rugby player shared a video on Instagram where she is seen battling arm-for-arm with the 36-year-old former Philadelphia Eagles Center.
With her USA teammates encouraging her, the two put in a significant amount of effort, but the wrestling ended with a victory for Jason. The post was captioned, “@jason.kelce holding on to that table a little bit?”
Jason was shown holding onto the corner of the table, which Nicole ruled as cheating. In the comments, the eldest Kelce brother defended his win, expressing, “Holding onto something with your off hand is completely within the rules of the International Federation of Arm Wrestling.”
Even his wife Kylie joined in the playful banter, stating, “I tried to warn you!”
This year marks Nicole’s second Olympics, as she previously attended the Tokyo Games in 2020, where she finished in sixth place with the USA women’s rugby team. In Paris, they started off strong with wins against both Japan and Brazil.
