Injury
Jason Kels is having “routine cleaning” surgery on his elbow, according to an official announcement from the Philadelphia Eagles. Official statement via the team’s PR department:
“After trying to work through the discomfort in his elbow, it was agreed that regular cleaning was in his best interest and would also allow for a speedy recovery.”
Kelsey was first added to the Eagles training camp injury report list on Tuesday morning.
The news comes after an exercise at Lincoln Financial Field where Kelsey in particular had some snappy problems. Guessing that wasn’t unrelated to it.
The timetable for Kells’ return is unclear at the moment. ESPN’s Tim McMachnus reports that there is optimism he will be available for Week 1.
Net Worth
Jason Kelce has a net worth of around $1.5 million.
Brother
His brother, Travis Kelce, began playing alongside him at Cincinnati after he also joined them in 2008.
Family
To begin with, his family origins are a mix of various ethnicities including Polish, English, and Scottish ancestry. Kels’ parents were working-class citizens with sound financial knowledge.
He worked tirelessly to ensure that his boys had a better life. As the breadwinners of the family, the athlete’s parents often made provisions for the welfare of their children.
Of course, every member of their household supported each other’s dreams. So, when Jason and his brother decided to pursue a career in football, they were sure that their family would not let them face the odds alone.
Who is wife
Philadelphia Eagles center player, Jason Kels, settled in April 2018 when he married Kylie McDevitt in Center City. The couple tied the knot at the Logan Hotel, and Sarah Alderman of the Coatesville-based AGP Collective served as the official photographer for the wedding.
The event was planned by Sarah Brie of Philly-based All About Events. About 170 guests attended the wedding, including the couple’s Irish wolfhound, Winnie.
