Jelly Roll Reveals 200-Pound Weight Loss—Says He’s Not Done Yet
As he continues his weight-loss adventure, Jelly Roll disclosed that he has lost 200 pounds.
The Tennessee Titans posted a video on X in which the 40-year-old country music artist gave an inspirational lecture to the NFL squad and revealed his most recent health milestone.
The Titans’ head coach, Brian Callahan, asked the Nashville native, who has been a lifelong Titans supporter, to address the team’s training camp players prior to their preseason road trip.
During his surprise appearance at a team meeting, Jelly Roll told the Titans “I can’t get on the field” but joked that he was getting “close.”
“I lost 200 pounds. I told Coach I’m getting a contract if I lose another 50,” the “Save Me” singer said to applause from the players and staff.
A request for comment from Fox News Digital was not immediately answered by a Jelly Roll spokesperson.
Since starting his health quest in December 2022, Jelly Roll has provided frequent updates on his progress.
Jelly Roll disclosed that he has lost 183 pounds during Pat McAfee’s “Big Night AHT” event in April.
“I started at 540 pounds. I’m 357 pounds this morning, baby,” he told the crowd as they cheered.
“I’m going to lose another 100 pounds and go skydiving with my wife!” declared the rapper, who has been married to Bunnie Xo since August 2016.
In an interview with Fox News Digital in May, Jelly Roll revealed the most difficult thing he had to deal with in his weight loss journey.
During the 2025 Academy of Country Music Awards, Jelly Roll declared, “Food, man.”
Jelly Roll clarified that his ongoing battle with his relationship with food was the reason behind his weight loss, which went beyond simply improving his physical condition.
“If you’re really battling obesity, you got to start at the dinner table, man. The walking’s great, all the other stuff’s great, but you got to fight that addiction at the dinner table,” he said.
Jelly Roll has been steadfast in his attempts to reduce his weight, acknowledging that he had a food addiction similar to his prior drug addiction.
The performer has been open about his history of substance misuse problems.
“The battle was with the food addiction, changing the way I’ve looked at food for the last 39 years,” he told People magazine last year. “I’ve never had a healthy relationship with food, so that was the hard part. But once you get into that discipline and commitment, it’s like an avalanche. Once that little snowball started rolling, it was on its way.”
The “Son of a Sinner” singer posted a video to Instagram in October 2024 in which his trainer announced that Jelly Roll had reached a significant weight-loss milestone.
“We just passed the halfway point of the tour, and Jelly’s been crushing it,” his trainer said. “We’re either walking [around] the arena, playing basketball, boxing. He just surpassed his 100-pound weight loss.”
He discussed why he chose to be candid with his fans about his weight loss during an appearance on Bunnie Xo’s “Dumb Blonde” podcast in December 2024.
“I did this publicly for a reason,” he said. “I want to be honest about my struggles with it with people. I wore it for so long.”
Jelly Roll continued, “I think that people that become as big as I became, when they lose the weight, they’re kind of ashamed. They’re so ashamed that they go and hide and lose the weight, and then they come back out, and they don’t really know how to interact with the world, looking different or feeling different, you know? And they kind of got to find their whole new way.”
“I wanted to lose it in front of everybody. I wanted to talk about it… This is constantly what I’m putting in the air because I want to bring people along with me.” He later told Bunnie, “I wanna be on the cover of ‘Men’s Health’ by March of 2026. That’s my new goal. So I wanna have one of the biggest transformations.”
