Eagles’ Jason Kelce May Have Played His Last Game and NFL Fans Paid Tribute

NFL fans showed love to Jason Kelce after what was potentially his final game in the league.

The Philadelphia Eagles were bounced from the playoffs in the wild-card round on Monday night by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, in what could potentially have been legendary center Jason Kelce’s final game in the NFL.

The 36-year-old has hinted in the past that the 2023 season may be his last and with the Eagles’ campaign coming to an end on Monday, it’s possible that his outstanding career has reached its conclusion.

Kelce appeared emotional during the end of Philadelphia’s 32–9 defeat against the Buccaneers. He shared a moment with Eagles offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland along the sideline and was later seen talking to general manager Howie Roseman outside the locker room.

All of the feels for Jason Kelce 💚

Kelce has been dominant in the trenches for Philadelphia for the past 13 years. He’s featured in seven Pro Bowls and was a five-time All-Pro across his distinguished career. Kelce has started every single game under center for the Eagles dating back to Week 8 of the 2014 season.

NFL and Eagles fans on social media paid tribute to Kelce after what was potentially his last game in the league, showcasing their respect for the beloved center. 

Much love to the goat Jason Kelce. No one like him. https://t.co/AX6RBkMfyD

I love @JasonKelce

One of my favorites

One of the all-time best

Would sure love to see him keep playing and have a better final result

But that’s me being selfish

Otherwise, look forward to seeing you and your aura walk elegantly into Canton, sirpic.twitter.com/rvn5H3XXpy

Jason Kelce, Lane Johnson, Fletcher Cox and Brandon Graham deserved a better finish together as teammates. Thank you to them for all they have given to the city.

I feel terribly for Jason Kelce.

He's a no doubt Hall of Famer and this would be a really awful way for him to go out, through no fault of his own.
