NFL fans either love or hate the Philadelphia Eagles.

The party-loving, older Kelce brother dominated coverage of the NFL playoffs and Super Bowl, despite the Eagles getting blown out in a Wild Card game early in the postseason.

By the time that Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs edged the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in an overtime thriller inside Allegiant Stadium, Jason was an internet sensation.

Then he became even bigger on social media by wearing red-and-yellow overalls while playing DJ and partying with a mask on, as Taylor Swift and Travis continued their blossoming romance.

Jason is truly a man of the people and has embraced the spotlight that now follows the Kelce brothers everywhere.

Since entering the league in 2011 as a sixth-round draft pick out of Cincinnati, the seven-time Pro Bowler has become universally loved across the football world and is expected to eventually enter the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

You know what an underdog is? It’s a hungry dog,” said Jason, in a Super Bowl parade quote that perfectly sums up his career.

The sight of a visibly emotional Jason crying on the sideline after Philadelphia’s painful defeat to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers also connected with NFL fans, who saw a highly respected 13-year veteran realising in real time that he might have played his final professional game.

Jason told teammates in the locker room after the season-ending loss that he was retiring, according to ESPN.
