Eagles' legend Jason Kelce tearfully announced his retirement Monday, ending his 13-year career in Philadelphia. Kelce needed 45 minutes to recount his career from his childhood in Ohio to his final days with the Eagles through tears, laughter and many thanks to his biggest influences before he finally announced he was retiring."I have been the underdog my entire career," he said. "And I mean this when I say it, I still wish I was.
"It's only too poetic that I found my career being fulfilled in the City of Brotherly Love – I knew that relationship all too well." Kelce recalled his memories from the 2017-2018 championship season, and the uneasy feeling felt by the team after Carson Wentz's season-ending injury that paved the way for Nick Foles' improbable playoff run.
