Who would’ve thought a center would get so many props in the city of Philadelphia? Typically, football is a sport where the flashy positions get all of the credit — quarterbacks, wide receivers, running back, etc. However, in Philadelphia, we don’t forget the big men in the trenches.
Sure, the offensive line might not be the flashiest positional unit in the sport, but the respect for it is undoubtedly there. Long before he threw on a mummers costume and performed the speech of a lifetime, Jason Kelce was receiving massive amounts of love in Philly.
It’s unfortunate that some believed he was beginning to be washed up before that 2017 season, but thankfully the Eagles held onto him.
