Jason has publicly pondered retirement for the past couple of seasons
Ateary-eyed Jason Kelce approached his wife Kylie, who was also in tears, after the Tampa Bay Buccaneers eliminated the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night at Raymond James Stadium, leading fans to believe he will no longer be a part of franchise that drafted him.
Jason, 36, has pondered retirement for the past couple seasons, but joining his brother Travis on the Kansas City Chiefs with head coach Andy Reid, who drafted both siblings.
The Chiefs are a perennial championship contender as long as Patrick Mahomes is under center. Adding a veteran presence like Jason’s cannot hurt.
Jasons “last dance” can’t be a first-round exit the season after losing to his brother in the Super Bowl. He needs one more shot at a Lombardi Trophy and the Eagles are seemingly going to break up the team.

Eagles will probably clean house
Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni is probably going to be fired as the team attempts to hire Bill Belichick, who will probably try to keep Jason.
Starting the season with an 11-1 record and losing six of their final seven games is enough for any team to question the direction it’s headed.
Plus, if Jason joins the Chiefs, the brothers’ mother, Donna Kelce, will no longer have to attend two games in one day. The same is true if he retires.
