During the most recent episode of their podcast New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce, the football brothers revealed a childhood incident that saw their dad dispose of their newly acquired Eminem CD.

Recalling a football game in which the rapper’s track “Lose Yourself” was played on the big screen, Jason, 36, said to his brother, “It brings you back to the first CD you ever owned.”

Travis, 34, replied with a laugh, “The Eminem Show, baby.”

The center reportedly told teammates after the game that he plans to retire, according to ESPN. The NFL also reported the news Monday morning.

A question mark has hung over Jason since he tearfully discussed the possibility of stepping away from the game, revealing his passion for the sport was “tearing” his body apart.

“It’s getting harder and harder to play,” Jason said in one scene from his Kelce documentary which was released last September on Prime Video.

“There have been little things that are not big things yet but are going to turn into big things the longer I play,” he added.
