00:00 Iconic Philadelphia Eagles star center Jason Kelsey bid a tearful farewell to his active
00:05 career in the NFL, the 36-year-old announced his retirement on Monday after 13 seasons
00:11 in which he was nominated to the first six All-Pro teams and won the Super Bowl in Philadelphia.
00:18 In his emotional speech, the Eagles star player praised younger brother Travis Kelsey for
00:23 his unwavering support, "We have a small family.
00:27 It was really my brother and I, our whole lives.
00:31 We did almost everything together, fought, fought, cried.
00:35 We invented games, we won millions of Super Bowls in our minds before we left the house,"
00:41 he continued.
00:42 "I won't forget two years later, that same man, Ed, and my brother received a call when
00:47 he got drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs.
00:51 This time we were both in tears.
00:54 There is no chance I would be here without the bond Travis and I shared," the older Kelsey
00:58 brother said.
01:00 "I won't forget falling short of the Chiefs, the immense feeling of heartbreak I felt selfishly
01:05 for myself and my teammates and at the same time the amount of pride I had for my brother,"
01:10 he shared while detailing the Eagles' defeat with the Chiefs in the Super Bowl last year.
01:16 As per the Daily Mail, as Jason delivered his final press conference following 13 seasons
01:21 with the Philadelphia Eagles, the Kansas City Chiefs star was seen sobbing while seated
01:26 in the front row with their parents, Ed and Donna.
01:31 He further described the beautiful bond he shared with his younger brother, "And when
01:35 we weren't playing, we were at the other's one's games.
01:39 But seated in a long chair or bench, a Capri Sun in our hands that mom had packed, cheering
01:44 during the game and waiting outside and afterward to celebrate a victory together.
01:49 Or offer encouragement after a defeat."
01:53 Kelsey continued, "There is no chance I'd be here without the bond that Travis and I
01:57 share.
01:59 It made me stronger, tougher, smarter and taught me the values of cooperation, loyalty,
02:05 and understanding, beyond football, that Kelsey brothers are still very close."
02:10 They co-host the podcast New Heights, where they talk about their playing careers and
02:15 each other's performances.
02:17 At the Cleveland Cavaliers-Boston Celtics game on Saturday, a bobblehead giveaway was
02:22 given out as a gesture to memorialize the Kelsey brothers.
02:27 Despite segueing occupations elsewhere, the two siblings have always felt a connection
02:32 to their homeland; in the 2011 draft, the Eagles player was selected sixth overall from
02:38 Cincinnati.
02:40 After missing the majority of the 2012 season due to a partially torn MCL and ruptured ACL,
02:46 he became an Iron Man the mainstay of the offensive line.
02:51 He went on to play 193 games in the Eagles regular season, starting 156 of them.
