Jason Kelce’s legendary career with the Eagles

Jason Kelsey stole the show at the biggest party. This city has ever seen Jason speech at the Eagles Super Bowl championship parade was in a word Unforgettable. Jason killed a judge. His journey from a sixth round draft pick to Philly folk hero

Is the stuff of Legends. He was an afterthought in the 2011 Draft Jason opened eyes during training camp and won the starting center job as a rookie. It was a job. He would hold onto for 13 years. He started in all 193 games. He appeared in as an eagle

Including a franchise-record 150. Six consecutive starts to finish his career. He played through countless injuries, including an elbow injury. So severe he often blocked with one arm taste. The just wasn’t tough. He was great. He earned Seven Pro Bowl selections and was a six-time first-team All-Pro.

The Pinnacle of Jason’s career, of course was the Eagles first Super Bowl championship and after they beat the Patriots 4133 the emotions it spilled out of Jason. It’s not about how hard to get hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward how much you can take

And keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done. That’s been this organization. That’s been this team all year. No matter what do we think we’ve overcome no matter who’s been down. Jason was simply put the heart and soul of the His Elite play and his leadership continued as

The team endured its gradual descent from that Super Bowl victory things bottom out in 2020 with a record of 4 11 and 1 and is disappointing as that was some wondered why the coaches didn’t let some of the younger guys play as the season wound down Jason’s answer to that

Question reminded us what he is all about winning. Nothing takes precedence over trying to win a football game. I don’t care who you’re trying. To evaluate I don’t care if you’ve lost every game your own 15, and it’s the last one you got everything is about winning in this league

Jason contemplated retirement, but decided to return for the 2021 season and that marked the beginning of the Knicks. Syriana era Jason’s fourth coach with the Eagles and after a 3 and 6 start the Eagles rebounded to make the playoffs and that set the stage for the 2022 season, which

Special feel from the beginning eight straight wins to start the year a 14 and 3 record and the Eagles second NFC Championship in six years. Jason was back in the Super Bowl this time facing his younger brother Travis and the Chiefs the Kelsey’s made history as the first

Brothers to play against each other in a Super Bowl. They were the biggest story of the week. But ultimately, Jason’s Eagles came up short against Travis’s teeths Jason once again put off retirement to return for the 2023 season. It was a season that began with great promise

A ten-in-one start, but it ended with a historic collapse the Eagles lost five of their last six regular-season games followed by a first-round playoff loss to the box and you see Jason was emotional towards the end of the loss in Tampa realizing it. Pause the final game of his legendary career.

Oh God is not today. I’m sorry. He was unflinching in his desire to win and his desire to be great. Jason Kelsey ends his Eagles career as one of the best centers in NFL history a future Hall of Famer Super Bowl champion a Super Bowl Parade Legend and above all else

A winner. He gave all he had to his teammates his organization and this city.
