Yes, Jason Kelce could soon add 'Emmy Award Winner' to his list of accomplishments.

Kelce, an Amazon Prime series produced by Jason Kelce, received two nods. One for Outstanding Long Documentary and another for Outstanding Editing.

What is the Amazon Prime Series Kelce About?

In the series, Jason breaks his heart open to tell the story of his life and give fans an intimate glimpse into his famous family's dynamic, including his close relationship with younger brother and fellow Super Bowl-winning NFL player Travis Kelce. I cried watching it, lol.

In fact, the documentary chronicles Jason and the Eagles journey to Super Bowl LVII, the championship game that pitted him against Travis and the Kansas City Chiefs. Sadly, The Birds lost.

Kelce also shows entertainingly Jason playing wife Kylie (who was pregnant with the couple's youngest child at the time) and dad to his daughters, Wyatt and Elliot.

Jason Kelce seems to be having a lot of fun branching out away from professional football. Just last weekend he popped up in the ring at WrestleMania 40 at Lincoln Financial Field with his Eagles teammate Lane Johnson.

Find out if Jason Kelce wins the two Emmy's he's nominated for when the 45th Annual Sports Emmy Awards get handed out on ESPN on May 21st, airing live from NYC's Lincoln Center.
