The Tampa Bay Buccaneers knocked the Philadelphia Eagles out of the playoffs in the wild-card round on Monday night, in what could have been legendary center Jason Kelce’s final game in the NFL.
The 36-year-old has intimated in the past that the 2023 season could be his last, and with the Eagles’ season ending on Monday, it’s probable that his amazing career has come to a close.
Kelce appeared distraught at the end of Philadelphia’s 32-9 loss to the Buccaneers. He chatted with Eagles offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland on the bench and was subsequently seen outside the locker room with general manager Howie Roseman.

For the past 13 years, Kelce has been dominant in the trenches for the Philadelphia Eagles. During his stellar career, he appeared in seven Pro Bowls and was a five-time All-Pro. Kelce has started every game as quarterback for the Eagles since Week 8 of the 2014 season.
NFL and Eagles fans paid tribute to Kelce on social media following what could have been his final game in the league, demonstrating their admiration for the beloved center.
