Eagles Center Jason Kelce announces his retirement from one sport and his return to another

Jason Kelce is still getting his April fools joke out midway through the month. The Eagles center announced on his Instagram account on Thursday that he was retiring.

Breathe, Eagles fans -- the retirement was from arm wrestling.

Kelce said that he is leaving behind his 2-0 record, which included a win against Flyers center Claude Giroux.

As for the NFL season, Kelce announced that he will be returning for his 10th season. He said that he felt the need to make an announcement because of people reaching out about his status for this season.

“I am fully excited for the 2020 season and will be out there with my teammates, coaches, and hopefully fans this coming season," Kelce said in the post.

Kelce has been an iron man on the offensive line, while everyone around him was falling down. He has started 16 games in five straight seasons, and he was the lone starter to not miss a snap last season.

Kelce has been a voted an All-Pro the last three seasons and to the Pro Bowl three times. At 32, Kelce might be in the fourth quarter of his career, but his play -- his 1,163 snaps last season were a career high -- suggests that he has plenty left in the tank.
