The great Jason Kelsey I adore this man I love his play I love his personality his attitude and I just love how he wears it on his sleeve man I love it I what’s not to love I I I mean he retired today announced his retirement everyone was expecting it just uh was

Taking his time time we got clear into March obviously needs to make that decision official before a new league year begins so he did it today you ready for this one former walk-on running back at Cincinnati okay turned into one of the best with 38 Collegiate starts 26 at

Left guard just 12 at Center just 12 and that’s how you become a sixth round pick 190 for first overall he had a very nice combine you know and that may have what be what put him on the Eagles screen he had a 20 yard shuttle don’t ask me what that is it’s

Just it’s just a test 4.14 seconds that’s the fastest time in the history of the combine for an offensive lineman but just 12 starts at Center that’s it and a former walk- on and the Eagles took a flyer and you could make the case that he’s just you know eight picks

Removed from the Brady spot one of the greatest sixth round draft choices ever and you know I know he didn’t win as much as Brady in terms of you know Super Bowls obviously but he did was on a team to beat Brady in a Super Bowl but six round picks aren’t

Supposed to have this type of career of Fame 13-year NFL career 205 starts a buck 93 in the regular season 12 in the playoffs seven Time pro bowler and a six time first team All proo Tied with dermontti Dawson for the most among centers in the modern era and here’s the

Most amazing part about that the six First Team all Pros came in the last seven years of his career so it took a while for him to get so recognized and as you could see in the photographs that we just put up there I describe for our radio audience wearing the MERS

Parade gear M to celebrate the Super Bowl at the Super Bowl parade and there’s a a photo that I saw earlier today of him hugging the Philly fanatic and him just representing the Philadelphia sports fan for a kid from Ohio to get it the way that he got it and then you know

Announcing that he’s staying by what doing Kars things like having a keger couple years ago yeah he had tweeted that out this morning he’s like no keger to this time around but I’ll have an announcement later I I I just love him this is how he said farewell typical

Jason Kelce just being a human hit it so this all brings us here to today where I announce that I am retiring where I announce I’m retiring from the NFL after 13 Seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles and today I must admit I am officially overrated vastly overrated it took a lot of hard

Work and determination getting here I have been the underdog my entire career and I mean this when I say it I wish I still was few things gave me more joy than proving someone wrong my mother used to tell people and still says to this day if you want Jason

To do something all you have to do is tell him he can’t and that was true in more ways than I care to admit I relish doubters they fueled A Fire Within I suspect that comes from an upbringing where my parents would tell me Jason you can do you can be anything

In this world you want to as long as you put your mind to it and work hard to achieve it so whenever I was fac with doubt in my career be it from fans from coaches even from my own teammates the American dream would burn from deep inside my

Bones which leads to my last Jeff stoutland quote hungry dogs run faster thank you Philadelphia God thank you Philadelphia from the bottom of my heart thank you for letting me represent this city and allowing me into your homes every Sunday growing up all it has truly been a privilege you

Have all been so good to me me and my family growing up in Cleveland I watched all of my favorite a athletes leave the city hell a whole team left the city it has always been a goal of mine to play my whole career in one

City and I couldn’t have dreamt a better one and a better fit if I tried I don’t know what’s next but I look forward to the new challenges and opportunities that await and I know that I carry with me the lessons for my time here and that

Forever and that forever we shall all share the bond of being philadelphians beautiful brother so cool beautiful brother beautiful speaking of beautiful that family that’s now going to get you fulltime you know those three daughters Wyatt Elizabeth Elliot Ray and Bennett Luellen obviously Kylie Casey’s wife just a an awesome family that we’re

Getting to learn more about because the Kelsey are the world in which we’re paying rent right now with him and and Travis And my favorite Kelsey moment of the last who knows how long was watching the Chiefs and the bills have at it and Kelsey’s Travis scores and CBS goes to find Taylor Swift and instead they see one big huge ass polar bear just growling from the booth holding a can of

Beer in his hand it looks like it’s just a little small like that that can of what is that light Miller Light was blue light pardon me I know that’s fighting words what I just did up there right and his hand in his right hand

Honestly it it looks like just a a small it yeah it looks like wanyama holding a baseball right and just him with his shirt off just growling and you know I guess his wife knowing he’s doing this and he’s just like this is him this is me and also by

The way you know it was him hopping out of that Suite to collect a young fan so she could wave at Taylor Swift that’s a girl Dad at work by the way beautiful he had this to say about his relationship with Travis and the conversation was you know you were

Pointing out maybe he sticks around one more year so that two of them can go into he played Guard college you know what I mean guard no they don’t actually they need a tackle in the worst way at any rate this is what he had to say about

Travis we have a small family no cousins one Aunt one Uncle it was really my brother and I our whole lives we did almost everything together competed fought laughed cried and learned from each other we invented games imagined ourselves as star players of that time we’d Envision making the winning

Plays day after day on Coler Ridge Road we won countless Super Bowls in our Minds before ever leaving the house and when we weren’t playing we were at the other ones games but seated in a lawn chair or bench a capric sun in our hand that mom had

Packed cheering during the game and waiting outside afterward to celebrate a victory together or offer encouragement after a defeat there is no chance I’d be here without the bond Travis and I share it made me stronger tougher smarter and taught me the values of cooperation loyalty patience and understanding beautiful just

Beautiful oh man I’m getting all for I’m getting all touch of veral too here yeah that’s pretty cool the football stuff we can leave aside because that’s a big void in the middle of that offensive line yeah I guess the Eagles are in a Center Market now and by

The way there’s a ton of good ones that I just saw at the combine that’s for another day the new day is Jason Kelce now leaving his playing days behind him and I I can safely say that his uh broadcasting days are going to be equally as

Successful site for him excited for him can’t wait to see what he wants to do cuz I’m sure he could ride his ticket there catch the rich eyes and show every single day on the Roku Channel 12 to3 Eastern for free
