The Best Of Jason Kelce
During his time with the Eagles, C Jason Kelce has been a valuable asset to the strength of the offensive line ...

Eagles C Jason Kelce was voted to his first Pro Bowl this past season

He became the first Eagles center to gain Pro Bowl recognition since Jim Ringo was named to his 10th Pro Bowl following the 1967 season

Kelce earned this recognition even with missing four games with a sports hernia

Kelce was instrumental in helping the Eagles generate 6,348 yards of total offense this past season

Originally a sixth round draft pick in 2011, Kelce made an instant impact by starting all 16 games during his rookie season

In 2013, Kelce was named the team's Ed Block Courage Award recipient after returning from a knee injury

He is a native of Ohio and attended college at the University of Cincinnati, where he graduated with a degree in Marketing

Kelce was originally a walk-on with the Bearcat program as a linebacker, but was switched to the offensive side of the ball by coach Brian Kelly (now head coach at Notre Dame)

Once switched to offensive line, Kelce earned a scholarship and started the final 38 of 47 games with Cincinnati at guard and center

Travis, Kelce's brother, played at Cincinnati for Jason's final two seasons and then was drafted by the Chiefs in the third round of the 2013 draft
