That’s one way to make a first impression.
Jason Kelce had to be carried home by his friend and former teammate Beau Allen after the Philadelphia Eagles center had a bit too much to drink during his first date with his now-wife, Kylie Kelce.
Allen, who played alongside Jason from 2014 until 2017, told the funny story on his new podcast “Fax and The King,” saying that Jason was “really excited” to meet Kylie after the pair matched on Tinder.
However, Jason decided to schedule the first date right after the Eagles holiday party, which proved to be a questionable decision.
“I’m not even going to lie to you — we were busted up,” Allen recalled. “I’ll never forget we pre-gamed this party and we [went] to the holiday [party] and I’m kind of thinking to myself I’ve got to keep an eye on these dudes because I don’t really know how this s—t’s going to go.”
By the time they met up with Kylie, Allen says Kelce was “smashed” and “fell asleep on the bar” within an hour.
Allen then realized he needed to get Jason out of there and had “to fireman carry him home” for “maybe half a mile” — despite the Super Bowl champ retaliating.
“He kept f—king with me during it,” Allen explained. “So, I was carrying him, and it was exhausting because he was pure dead weight. It’s like literally carrying a corpse.”
Allen says that Kylie must have “really swept him off his feet” because Jason “would come to life randomly and squirm around and try and get me to drop him.”
“I don’t know if the first date went that well but I guess it went really well because they got married, three beautiful daughters, and now they have a documentary about them,” he concluded.
Jason — who is the star of Prime Video’s new documentary “Kelce” — and Kylie reflected on the hectic meeting during a recent episode of the NFL player’s “New Heights” podcast.
While talking to brother Travis Kelce about how they met, Jason admitted that it was “not a good first date.”

“But I was sober enough to know [she] was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen in my life,” Jason said. “It was love at first sight.”
“It was like fireworks exploded at the door the moment she walked through the door,” he sarcastically continued, joking that it was like when “a movie has an angel walk through doors and there is only one light on that person.”
“That’s what happened?!” Travis, who is rumored to be dating Taylor Swift, replied. “I’ve always wanted that to happen.”
Yet thankfully, Jason says “the second date went much better” because he “didn’t black out or fall asleep.”
The couple eventually wed in 2018 and have since welcomed daughters Wyatt Elizabeth, 3, Elliotte Ray, 2 and 6-month-old Bennett Llewellyn.
