Jason Kelce announced his retirement from the NFL after 13 seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles.

Many speculated about Kelce's retirement after the Eagles' season-ending Wild Card loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in January, but on Monday the six-time All-Pro center made it official.

Kelce didn't get through much of his announcement before breaking down in tears.

In his speech, the 2018 Super Bowl winner talked about his passion for football, which began in middle school, and his love for the sport wherever he played, whether it was on the field, in the backyard with his brother Travis, or on the playground with his friends.

Kelce thanked all of the influences throughout his life, from buddies to teachers and from coaches to family.

The tears flowed again as he spoke of "the call" from Andy Reid on draft day and then the same call his brother received two years later.

Kelce also spoke on the impact of the Eagles' 2018 Super Bowl win.

Kelce was again overcome with emotion as he talked about his heartbreak over Philly's 2023 Super Bowl loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, but also the pride he felt for KC's tight end, his brother, Travis.

Kelce then made the announcement.

"So this all brings us here to today where I announce that I'm retiring from the NFL after 13 seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles."
"And today I must admit that I am officially overrated, vastly overrated, but it took a lot of hard work and determination getting here."
"I have been the underdog my entire career, and I mean this when I say it, few things gave me more joy than proving people wrong."

People on social media congratulated Kelce on his stellar career, and acknowledged that his display of emotion was a testament to his love for the game.










If there were any dry eyes after the previous videos, they were probably gone after this version that included brother Travis' reaction.

Kelce thanked Philadelphia "with all of his heart" and finished:

"I don't know what's next, but I look forward to the new challenges and opportunities that await."
"And I know that I carry with me the lessons from my time here and that forever we shall all share the bond of being Philadelphians."

You can watch his full announcement on YouTube or the Eagles' website.

Congratulations on your retirement, Jason!

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

Trump's Border Czar Ripped For Hypocrisy After Telling Pope Leo To 'Stay Out Of Politics'

President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan was called out for hypocrisy after telling Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics" after he clashed with Trump over the widely unpopular war in Iran.

Last week, Pope Leo criticized the war and called on the world "to reject war, especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything."
