ravis Kelce Walks Away During Retirement Speech from Brother Jason, who Struggled to Give a Speech About Taylor Swift and Travis, But Bursted into a ‘Loud Cry’ During the Process
After giving a lengthy speech to the crowd, Jason said “So this all brings us here to today, where I announce that I am retiring. Where I announce I am retiring from the NFL after 13 seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles and today, I must admit, I am officially overrated, vastly overrated.”

He added, “It took a lot of hard work and determination getting here. I have been the underdog my entire career, and I mean this when I say it: I wish I still was.” He went on to thank his teammates as well as his family—including Travis Kelce who was in the crowd and visibly emotional.
Jason also shouted out Travis in the speech, saying “we have a small family, no cousins, one aunt and one uncle, it was really my brother and I our whole lives. We did almost everything together, competed, fought, laughed, cried, and learned from each other.”
