Team USA rugby star Nicole Heavirland challenged Jason Kelce to an atm wrestle. The 29-year-old Olympian shared a clip of the unlikely match-up on Instagram Sunday. In the background, you can hear Nicole’s teammates cheering her on to beat Jason.
In the clip, Nicole is sporting her Team USA gear. Jason, on the other hand, is wearing a set of American flag shorts and a navy beret. He’s been rocking the beret since touching down in Paris for the Olympic Games with his wife, Kylie Kelce.
Although she had cheerleaders on her side, she nearly lost to Jason Kelce, but she ultimately took home the win. The two shared a friendly handshake at the end of the arm wrestle. In the caption, Nicole Heavirland poked fun at the NFL star.
“@jason.kelce holding on to that table a little bit?” she wrote. In the comments, Jason fired back, “Holding onto something with your off hand is completely within the rules of the International Federation of Arm Wrestling.”
Kylie Kelce also chimed in on the friendly banter. She wrote, “I tried to warn you!” Team USA also commented on the post and shared that their “jaws [were] dropped at this content.” Another person suggested, “Jason Kelce to suit up for @usarugby next season, who says no?”
Kylie & Jason Are Enjoying The Olympic Games
The Team USA rugby players earned back-to-back victories against Japan and Brazil on Sunday. Kylie and Jason Kelce were present at Sunday’s game. The USA Rugby’s official Instagram page shared a photo of the couple at the Games. “Just a bunch of Eagles,” the caption read, referring to the NFL team Jason used to play on.
In another Instagram video, rugby player Ilona Maher attempted to recruit Jason Kelce to become Team USA’s number-one celebrity fan. “Women’s water polo has Flava Flav as their super fan. And you are a girl dad,” she said. “But if you just wanna be our super fan, you can just even say, ‘I’m a fan.’”
Then, the camera pans to Jason who states, “I am officially a fan of women’s rugby, Olympics.” Ilona Maher, along with her teammates, cheered, “We got Jason Kelce!”
