Jason Kelce Brings NFL Fans Exclusive Access with Marriott

In his 13-year career, Jason Kelce’s outstanding performance on the field sparked the enthusiasm of NFL fans everywhere. Now, for his first season off the field, Marriott Bonvoy, Marriott’s travel program, along with Courtyard by Marriott, the Official Hotel Partner of the NFL, has announced that Kelce is joining their team as the first-ever ‘Fanbassador.’ In this role, Kelce will bring unprecedented experiences to football fans throughout the regular season and leading up to Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans, allowing them to pursue their passion for the game every single week.

Jason Kelce is set to unveil a new Marriott Bonvoy Moment. This will allow Marriott Bonvoy members to bid points for unique football-related experiences that are inspired by Kelce. The experiences will cater to all types of football fans, offering opportunities such as joining Kelce at a gameday pool party or having him choose the punishment for your fantasy league loser. Members can also anticipate receiving custom-designed apparel from designer Kristin Juszczyk and participating in a mystery experience with Kelce at a Courtyard by Marriott in Philadelphia. Furthermore, later in the season, Kelce and Courtyard by Marriott will announce an incredible opportunity to join Kelce in the lead-up to Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans.
