Jason Kelce addresses retirement rumors: 'Too much emotion' to make that decision now
View Date:2025-01-14 02:45:28
Philadelphia Eagles All-Pro center Jason Kelce addressed retirement rumors during this week's podcast, "New Heights."
Kelce reportedly told teammates that he was retiring after 13 seasons with the team, but Kelce said now is not the time to make that decision and got emotional talking about his future.
"I don't know what next year's gonna look like," he said. "I didn't announce what I was doing on purpose, despite I guess what's been leaked to the media."
"I just don't think you're in a position after a game like that to really make that decision. I just don't," Kelce added "There's too much emotion in the moment, there's too much going down in the moment to really fully grasp that decision. I'm not trying to be dramatic and continue to draw this thing out."
The Eagles were ousted from the playoff on Monday after a 32-9 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Philadelphia lost six of its last seven games after starting the season 10-1.

"It's just something that I think, when it's time to officially announce what's happening in the future, it'll be done in a way that's definitive and pays respect to a lot of people and individuals that have meant a lot to me and what has led to the career I've had," Kelce said. "And, you know, I don't think that it would be respectful or even accurate to be able to do that right after a game like that."
