DAD’S HILARIOUS BOND: Jason Kelce’s Playful Jokes with Newborn Finnley Melt 8 Million Hearts, Proving Bennie Loves Dad! What’s the Adorable Secret? Catch the Laugh-Out-Loud Moment
The Dad Behind the Helmet
Jason Kelce has long been a fan favorite, not just for his on-field ferocity but for his off-field charm. His down-to-earth personality, candid humor, and deep love for his family have made him a standout among NFL fans. And now, his newest role — as a father of three — has taken center stage.
Just weeks after welcoming his third child, baby Finnley, with wife Kylie Kelce, Jason shared a video on social media that has captivated over 8 million viewers. The clip shows Jason playfully mimicking a football call while holding Finnley, who responds with the most innocent giggles — a sound that fans now call “the touchdown laugh.”
Finnley’s First Laugh Goes Viral
In the now-viral clip, Jason looks into the camera, cradling his swaddled son and declaring in mock seriousness, “Down! Set! Poop explosion!” The punchline? Finnley lets out a bubbly laugh, completely unaware of the world but fully aware that Dad is the funniest man alive.
The comment section instantly lit up.
“I’ve never seen a baby laugh so hard at a football cadence!”
“Finnley’s laugh just cured my Monday blues!”
“Jason Kelce wins Dad of the Year!”
Even big brother Wyatt and big sister Elliotte joined in the fun, seen running in the background with toy footballs, chanting “Go Daddy Go!”
Kylie Kelce Speaks Out
Jason’s wife Kylie, who has become a beloved figure in her own right thanks to her heartfelt involvement in community causes and her candid glimpses into the Kelce household, shared the video with the caption: “Three kids, one quarterback, and a whole lot of love (and diapers).”
She later joked in an interview, “Finnley already thinks Jason is a stand-up comedian. Maybe he’s onto something post-retirement!”
Bennie the Dog Approves
What makes the moment even more charming is that family dog Bennie — a loyal Irish wolfhound — is also featured in the background of the clip, tail wagging as if joining in the laughter. “Even Bennie thinks I’m funny!” Jason joked.
Bennie, who has become something of a mascot for the Kelce household, has reportedly formed a protective bond with baby Finnley. Fans have affectionately dubbed them “the new dynamic duo.”
A New Chapter for the Kelces
After officially retiring from the NFL earlier this year, Jason Kelce has made it clear that family is now his primary focus. Though he continues to co-host the hit podcast New Heights with brother Travis Kelce, Jason has been spending the majority of his time at home — making pancakes, changing diapers, and yes, perfecting his dad jokes.
It’s a new era for the Kelces, filled with giggles, baby bottles, and unforgettable moments. And while Jason may have stepped off the field, he’s proving every day that he’s still an MVP — this time, in the eyes of his children.
