Nick Herbig Contract & Chiefs OTAs with EB Back
At 18:18 · chapter starts 15:10
Jason pivots to Nick Herbig — a Steelers backup outside linebacker he trained with in college and knows personally through his brother Nate. Herbig just became the highest-paid non-starter in NFL history, reportedly at around $100 million, and Jason vouches for it wholeheartedly, calling him a legitimate disruptor who flashes on every snap. The conversation then shifts to the Chiefs' OTAs, where Eric Bienemy has returned as offensive coordinator. Travis is electric about it. He quotes Trey Smith's devastating one-liner — 'get it together or he'll get you together' — and Patrick Mahomes' endorsement that EB's first meeting had him ready to run through a brick wall. For Travis, Bienemy's accountability-first culture is something the Chiefs have missed, and he says players unfamiliar with Bienemy haven't seen the real EB yet. He closes with a characteristically raw declaration: 'I can't wait till he motherfucks me, man.'
Steelers backup edge rusher Nick Herbig became the highest-paid NFL player who isn't a starter in league history, reportedly worth around $100 million.
Nick Herbig isn't even a starter, but he just became the highest-paid non-starter in NFL history. Jason Kelce — who trained with him in college and knows his brother — says Herbig is a legitimate disruptor who flashes every time he's on the field.
Eric Bienemy returned to the Kansas City Chiefs as offensive coordinator, with Patrick Mahomes saying their first meeting 'had me ready to run through a brick wall.'
Eric Bienemy's return to Kansas City isn't just a coaching move — it's a culture correction. Travis says accountability hit differently under EB, and with Mahomes calling his first meeting 'ready to run through a brick wall,' the Chiefs are dialing back to a gear that made them a dynasty.
Jason and Travis crack open the limited New Heights x OluKai sandal collab — football stitching, contoured arch support, premium leather, and their signatures in gold on the inside. For Jason, the guy who wore sandals to the Walter Payton Man of the Year ceremony in a full suit, this is peak personal branding.
