Farewell To Greatness: Celebrating The Legacy Of An NFL Legend. Enjoy, Jason Kelce.

I am a football fan. I was born in New Haven, Connecticut, long before the days of cable. We watched what came in on antenna. I was a New York Jets fan.

At the school I attended, a man named Billy Walik came in to coach hockey. Billy was an alumnus of our school and a kickback return guy for the Philadelphia Eagles. (And a guy named Norm Snead.) A connection that lead me to follow them.

And ultimately, I fell in love with a center named Jason Kelce.

Jason Kelce, is the star center for the Philadelphia Eagles, has officially announced his retirement from the NFL after an illustrious 13-year career. His emotional farewell speech left not a dry eye in the house, as he expressed gratitude to family, friends, coaches, and teammates who supported him throughout his journey. Let’s delve into the details:
