Jason Kelce is still learning the rulebook at ESPN.

During the latest installment of his and brother Travis Kelce’s “New Heights” podcast, the former Eagles center — who retired in March and joined ESPN as an NFL analyst after 13 seasons with Philadelphia — explained how he’s able to work for the company, while still maintaining a locker room presence.

“I don’t know what the rule is,” he said when Travis asked “Has ESPN or the NFL told you that its OK for you to be in the building and still do commentary?”

Jason, who still lives in Philadelphia with his wife Kylie and their three daughters, explained that he spends time at the Eagles facility but he’s not on the team’s payroll.

“For me, I’m not accepting any money from the Eagles. I don’t have an official position,” Jason said. “I’m really just going there out of pure interest on my own to keep my knowledge of the game up.

“And, obviously, I’ve built up a lot of relationships with the people around that building that I’m gonna help out in any way I can. But the reality is, that’s not my job.”

Travis also brought up retired quarterback Tom Brady — who will make his broadcast debut with Fox Sports on Sunday when he calls the Browns-Cowboys game with Kevin Burkhardt — and his efforts to purchase a minority stake in the Raiders, which has has not yet been approved.

Brady could face significant broadcast restrictions if his ownership stake is approved, ESPN reported.

ESPN told The Post that it is “fine with Jason being around the Eagles in an unofficial capacity” when reached for comment.

After announcing his retirement in March, Jason made it clear that he would be spending time around the team to stay close to the game.

During the podcast, he added that he believes it’ll help keep him sharp for his new ESPN gig.

Travis then brought up Eagles GM Howie Roseman and his comments — when he said he invited Jason to be a team scout — during an appearance on “Up & Adams” in July.

However, Jason said “that’s not in the cards” right now.

“I’m partly not accepting a position because I want to be able to be honest in my assessment as an individual media member,” he said on the podcast. “Although I think everybody knows I’ll always be biased about personal relationships I have with the Eagles. Maybe that’s in the future but that’s not in the cards right now.”

Jason also weighed in on a potential coaching future.

“We’ll see, maybe one day. I know selfishly I’d love coaching but that’s a big time commitment that at this time I’m not willing to make,” he said.

Jason will contribute to ESPN’s “Monday Night Countdown” and the “Monday Night Football” halftime show every week during the regular season and will also appear on ESPN’s playoff games and Super Bowl coverage for Super Bowl LXI in New Orleans in 2025.
