Jason Kelce, the Philadelphia Eagles star, is set to announce his decision regarding his future in professional football today. The 36-year-old's potential retirement has been a topic of speculation since his last game on Jan. 15.
Kelce took to Twitter on Monday morning to tease the impending announcement, stating that he would reveal his plans later in the day. Fans eagerly await his decision on whether he will continue playing in the upcoming season.
Having enjoyed a successful 13-year NFL career, Kelce was a key player in the Eagles' Super Bowl victory in 2018 and has been selected to the Pro Bowl seven times. Despite a strong start to the past season, the Eagles faltered towards the end, finishing with an 11-6 record and exiting the playoffs early.
Following the playoff loss, Kelce shared emotional moments with his family and teammates, hinting at a possible retirement. While reports suggested that he informed his teammates of his retirement plans, Kelce has remained tight-lipped about his future since then.
In a documentary last fall, Kelce expressed the challenges of continuing to play at a high level, indicating that retirement was on his mind. However, he also mentioned his desire to remain involved with the Eagles organization in some capacity post-playing career.
As fans and the football community eagerly await Kelce's official announcement, his impact on the Eagles and the NFL as a whole is undeniable. Stay tuned for updates on Kelce's decision and his future endeavors within the football world.
