Being a sporting legend himself, it's obvious for Jason Kelce to expect his daughters to have a similar level of love for sports. While his daughters have started to develop an interest in sports, the ex-Eagles star wants them to carry forward his wife, Kylie's field hockey legacy.

On Friday, Jason Kelce sat in an exclusive interview with PEOPLE. During this, the retired NFL star talked about wanting daughters, Wyatt, Elliotte and Bennett to start playing field hockey by the end of this year. He wants them to carry forward their mother's legacy. Sharing details about the same, Jason said:

"Getting old enough that they're into sports now. They're riding bikes and doing gymnastics. I want to get them back out on the ice this year because I like ice skating. So it'd be awesome to do some ice skating before the season passes, and want to get them into baseball this year."
"Of course, field hockey. They already have the little sticks. But yeah, field hockey and lacrosse, or two sports that I love, but they're not quite old enough for that yet. But we got the mini sticks and don't mess around with them," Jason further added.

Jason Kelce shared a glimpse into what traveling with kids looks like

Both Jason Kelce and his wife Kylie are working professionals with tight schedules. However, despite the tight timetable, the couple makes sure to take time out to travel with their kids, even though it's not something that happens often.

Moving forward in the same interview, Jason talked about spending time with kids and said:

"We don't travel as much with the girls. We go back and forth because we want them to travel and experience things. At the same time, they're so young. We've done Disney with them a few times and they definitely love that. When we're around, we try and we watch movies sometimes, which we know that they enjoy."

Before Jason Kelce's statement, his wife Kylie made headlines for crowning her brother-in-law Travis Kelce as the "king of funcles" while revealing the Chiefs tight end's adorable bond with his nieces.
