One of the greatest offensive linemen to ever play in the NFL has officially called it a career.
The Philadelphia Eagles held a press conference on Monday where longtime center Jason Kelce shared his intent to retire from the league after 13 seasons playing for the franchise.
The sixth-round pick out of Cincinnati made seven Pro Bowls and won a Super Bowl with the Eagles in 2018. He’s a six-time first-team All-Pro player in his career.
Kelce turned into a quick fan favorite with the Eagles and has built a strong following off the field along with his brother, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, on their podcast New Heights. Amazon released a documentary about the longtime Eagles player in 2023.
