Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce got incredibly emotional during his brother’s retirement announcement on Monday afternoon.
Travis’ older brother, Philadelphia Eagles superstar center Jason Kelce, held a press conference on Monday to inform reporters that he was officially retiring after a remarkable 13-year career that will eventually place him in Canton.
The younger Kelce brother was in attendance for the news. Travis was seen wiping away tears during the emotional family moment:
With Jason stepping away from football, that means Travis is the only Kelce brother still active in the NFL. Even at 34 years of age, the younger Kelce hasn’t displayed any true signs of slowing down and should stick around for several more seasons.
Jason was drafted in the sixth round (191st overall) by Philadelphia back in 2011. It’s hard to believe now, but Jason wasn’t at all highly-touted coming out of college.
Fast forward 13 years later, and you have a surefire Hall of Famer with seven Pro Bowl and six First-team All-Pro nods on his resume. And of course, he played a vital role in helping the Eagles win the franchise’s first Super Bowl back in 2017.
Like younger brother Travis, Jason will most certainly receive the call to Canton in his first year of eligibility. In an era where many offensive linemen slow down by their early 30s, Kelce remained an All-Pro-level star right up until the conclusion of his age-36 swan song year.
