Jason Kelce is retired but he can’t seem to stay away from the Philadelphia Eagles practice facility.
“Kelce has been in the building almost every single day,” Eagles kicker Jake Elliott revealed during a recent appearance on NFL Network.
Kelce announced his official retirement from the NFL back in March after 13 seasons with the Eagles.
His wife, Kylie, said last month that Kelce needs to “get out of the house” and that “golf isn’t going to cut it.”
So, it sounds like wandering around NovaCare Complex has been his go-to retirement activity to keep him sane.
Kelce is expected to sign a massive deal with ESPN to join “Monday Night Countdown” this upcoming fall, though nothing has been confirmed yet.
“Yeah, nothing’s been officially inked yet or announced yet. But obviously, there’s been a lot of reports out there about me going to ESPN. And I think time will kind of take care of that,” Kelce said on his New Heights podcast. “But it’s a tremendous honor to even be considered to potentially work there. That network was everything that Travis and I watched growing up.”
Until that deal happens, however, Kelce is going to continue to fill his time by checking in on the Eagles.
But if he keeps it up, then maybe the guys can rally together and pull him out of retirement?
“That’s not my deal, you can talk to Jason about that,” Elliott told NFL Network.
