Donna, Jason Kelce’s mother, is relieved that he is retiring. Why?
The former Eagles player may hang up his cleats.
Although it’s still unclear if Jason Kelce will retire from football at the end of this season, Donna Kelce, his mother, might find a bittersweet way to make ends meet.
The Eagles, who were pre-game favorites to win, were humiliated in their wild-card playoff game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, losing 32-9.
Following the game, Kelce appeared to be upset, which raised rumors that the 36-year-old would be retiring from the NFL following a dazzling career.
Kelce was regarded as one of the greatest centers in sports history, so his departure will be much missed by the Eagles. However, everyone seems to agree that it might be time for him to say goodbye.
Even though his devoted mother takes pleasure in making the trip to and from her house to watch her son play, she might benefit from him giving up the game.
The loving mother of two divides most of her free time between going to Philadelphia to watch her son Jason and making quick trips to Kansas City to visit her youngest son Travis, who plays tight end for the Chiefs.
The moment Donna, 71, donned her well-known two-team jacket during the Super Bowl matchup between the Chiefs and the Eagles is still remembered by fans. She emerged victorious from the game that day as the Chiefs prevailed 38–35 in the final seconds.
However, Jason’s retirement will allow her to devote her time to supporting Travis’ squad and permanently store the 50-50 jacket.
Reactions to reports of Jason Kelce’s retirement
Apart from football, Kelce and his brother Travis co-host the “New Heights” podcast, where they talk about their respective playing careers.
It felt like the proper time and place for the 2018 Super Bowl winner to correct the record after social media responded to the news that he might be leaving the NFL permanently.
During their conversation, Kelce stated, “There’s too much going down in the moment to really truly appreciate that decision.”
Kim Kardashian and Vanessa Bryant were seen having fun together.
Following Jonathan Owens’ haughty remarks, Simone Biles’ admirers want her to be divorced.
After a game like that, I just don’t think you’re in a position to truly make that decision. Right now, there’s too much feeling. I’m not attempting to drag things out in a theatrical manner. Actually, I’m not.
“When the time comes to make a formal announcement, I want to do so in a way that honors the many individuals who have shaped my career and have meant a great deal to me.”
