Another pretty cool Jason Kelce story
https://www.yahoo.com/sports/jason-k...100127645.html

Quote:
When Jason Kelce announced his retirement, the Eagles released a video showing Kelce thanking team employees for their years of hard work. A close look at that video revealed something unusual: Kelce's ankles were taped, the way they would be for a game. It turns out that the ankle tape reflected a special relationship between Kelce and a team trainer.

Eagles trainer Joe O'Pella wrote on social media that he had been taping Kelce's ankles every game for years. But O'Pella but missed the final game of Kelce's career, the playoff loss in Tampa, because he was getting chemotherapy. So Kelce asked O'Pella to be the last person to tape his ankles as an Eagle, and do it before his retirement speech.

"You all know about the on-field accomplishments, and many of the off-field ones, too, but what this man has meant to me and now my family over the past decade plus is nearly indescribable," O'Pella wrote. "In what would be his final season, when I was diagnosed with cancer and had to undergo radiation and chemo, he offered his shore house if I needed to get away, and offered to pay for meal services to help my wife and me out, and he called me randomly when I had been home, too sick to come in because of chemo, just to check on me and chat about random things. That’s who he is as a person. I taped this guy’s ankles and thumbs everyday for 13 seasons, and when he played his last game in Tampa, again I couldn’t be there due to cancer. And when he told me he would be retiring and I expressed my regret of not being the last person to ever tape him, he offered to have me tape him for his retirement press conference. That’s who he is. And I hope theses stories can add to an already unbelievable legacy."

In the video of Kelce addressing Eagles employees, he expresses his gratitude.

"Thank you so much fo everything that everyone in here does and means to this organization, to the players," Kelce said. "It's been an honor to work with all of you."

The feeling is clearly mutual.

If this dude doesn’t have some sort of prominent role at Wrestlemania this year, then I don’t know what the WWE is thinking.

It seems so damn obvious. Maybe not the main event, but have him involved to help a baby face win somewhere.

He mentions the guy on New Heights. Says he’s getting a beer with him as the doctors said it was allowed. Jason Kelce is ****ing gold.

He seems like such a great guy that he could be a Chief.

Easily my favorite non Chief of all time and honestly he probably ranks ahead of a bunch of Chiefs (not like Pat or his brother, but you know, Sabby Piccadilly or whatever his name was types).
