Although Jason Kelce’s tenure in the NFL has concluded, his steadfast allegiance to the Philadelphia Eagles remains evident in his fashion selections.
On March 4, during his retirement press conference, the 36-year-old football athlete displayed team spirit by donning an Eagles T-shirt featuring shortened sleeves. Nevertheless, Jason’s loyalty did not terminate there. Furthermore, he flaunted his commitment with a discontinued Rolex GMT-Master II in yellow 18k gold, featuring a black ceramic bezel and a green dial.
Jason disclosed on the Green Light with Chris Long podcast in February that the watch was the result of a special team commission subsequent to the Eagles’ 2018 Super Bowl victory. The watch is listed on the Wrist Aficionado website as having a resale value of $51,900.00.

“Wearing Super Bowl jewelry is not enjoyable. To begin with, donning it makes you feel a little bit like an idiot, in my opinion. You have the sensation of saying, “Oh, look at me!” “He exclaimed, ‘I won the Super Bowl!'” on the podcast.
Further, he stated, “They are also enormous and cumbersome.” To be precise, it has already inflicted a lesion upon my finger. They are not at ease. As a result, the team as a whole and a few other members reached a consensus to simply commission Rolexes as a memento of the Super Bowl.
Long quipped during the episode that Jason is the only individual capable of rocking a Rolex while wearing flip-flops, an item that has since become synonymous with his personal style.
Travis Kelce was observed at the press conference averting his emotions in response to his brother’s emotional retirement announcement.

Travis, 34, was seated in the front row with their parents, Donna and Ed Kelce, and Jason’s wife, Kylie Kelce, during the emotional address in which Jason announced his retirement from the NFL.
Jason discussed his brother and himself, recalling their childhood collaborations in athletics and the mutual elation they experienced upon their brother’s selection into the NFL. A small household comprises our unit. One aunt, one uncle, and no cousins. “In reality, my brother and I spent our entire lives together,” Jason elaborated. “We did almost everything together — competed, fought, laughed, cried and learned from each other.”
He reminisced about “co-creating games” with Travis and stated that the two of them “envisioned” themselves as NFL “star players” at some point. “We won countless Super Bowls in our minds before ever leaving the house,” Jason commented.
Jason stated of Travis’s support over the years, “It taught me the values of cooperation, loyalty, patience, and understanding, in addition to making me smarter, stronger, and more resilient.”
