An explosive report suggested that Eagles center Jason Kelce informed his teammates that he was retiring. The report came after the Buccaneers knocked the Eagles out of the playoffs on Monday night. But the professional center was quick to put those rumors to rest in the latest of his “New Heights” podcast.
“I don’t think it would be respectful or even accurate to be able to do that right after a game like that. But, in the future, I guess something will be said,” he said of his alleged retirement announcement.
“It is something that I believe that when the time comes to officially announce what will happen in the future, it will be done in a way that is definitive and that respects many people and individuals who have meant a lot to me and what has led me to the career that I have. I have had”.

ESPN insider criticized for being ‘wrong’ again
ESPN senior NFL insider Adam Schefter was the person who reported that Kelce informed his teammates that he was retiring. The analyst was a little overzealous in reporting on him. But this isn’t the first time Schefter has rushed to report a player’s retirement.
Schefter also miscalculated when future Hall of Famer Tom Brady was contemplating retirement. Schefter made the announcement moments before Brady made it official. However, just a few weeks later, Brady announced his decision to return for one more season.
The quarterback cited having “unfinished business” as his reason for returning. But there’s a joke among NFL fans that Brady only returned because Schefter overshadowed his retirement announcement.
Kelce makes revelation about Eagles’ ‘tush push’
The Eagles were one of the best teams in the NFL in the first half of the season. Much of that success can be attributed to a play selected by his offense. The ‘tush push’ or ‘brother push’ is a goal line play in which the entire offensive line pushes the quarterback into the end zone.
While it may seem easy to some, Kelce told Fox Sports reporter Laura Okmin that the play takes a big toll on linemen.
“My favorite quote of the season was one I didn’t get to say on TV,” he wrote. “In explaining the toll pushing takes on you, Jason Kelce told me that when pushing, he yells, “Fuck MY LIFE!”
