Eagles coaches and players have all talked about Jason Kelce still being around the building, and even having a locker among the coaches — the veteran center even admitted on his New Heights podcast that he still goes there for his workouts.
Kelce has been busy lately between attending the Paris Olympics and taking his seat at the table on ESPN ahead of the Hall of Fame game. But, he finally made his way back to the NovaCare Complex on Monday and took in some of practice.
Cam Jurgens left the field early on Monday, and the Eagles have had various other injuries to the o-line thus far in camp, so having Kelce around even in an advisory role is reassuring. The retired center has no plans of re-joining the team on the field, but getting some mental reps, or just a little support from a guy who’s been there, can be helpful.
It’s nice to know Kelce is never too far away.
