Harmony of Heartfelt Farewells: How Taylor Swift’s Tune Framed Jason Kelce’s Retirement Moment

Jason Kelce seemed to draw inspiration from Taylor Swift during his retirement speech


 

 

Philadelphia Eagles legend Jason Kelce seemingly dropped a reference to his brother Travis’ pop star girlfriend Taylor Swift in poignant moment during his retirement speech.

After after 13 incredible seasons in the NFL, the 36-year-old center announced that he would be retiring in just under two months after his emotional reaction to the Philadelphia Eagles’ playoff loss last season. And while he shared his tear-filled goodbye to the game and fans, listeners couldn’t help but pick up on a few T-Swift references sprinkled into his farewell speech.

During the press conference, Jason said to his supporters: “It’s only too poetic I found my career being fulfilled in the city of brotherly love, I knew that relationship all too well.” Which many couldn’t help but tie to Taylor’s chart-topping hit All Too Well from her famous Red album.

But that wasn’t the only moment that Jason let his inner Swiftie out, later in his speech Jason said: “If you go above and beyond in this city, you will be rewarded beyond your wildest dreams.” This reference seemed even more obvious to fans as they tied the wording to Taylor’s famous song Wildest Dreams featured on her fifth studio album 1989 (Deluxe).

It doesn’t come as a surprise that Jason would draw inspiration from the Grammy award-winning singer as the pair have been spending quite some time together in recent months. Ever since his brother Travis started dating Taylor, the pair seemed to have shared a sweet friendship as the former NFL player was seen giving her a warm welcome at the Super Bowl as he wrapped her in a big bear hug as they watched Travis play from their private suite.

During Jason’s speech, he also gave a loving shoutout to his brother who was supporting him in the audience during the difficult moment. He said: “There is no chance I would be here without the bond Travis and I share,” and continued: “It was really my brother and I our whole lives. We did almost everything together — competed, fought, laughed, cried and learned from each other. We invented games, imagine ourselves as star players of that time. We envisioned making winning plays day after day. We won countless Super Bowls in our minds before ever leaving the house. And when we weren’t playing we were at the other one’s games.”
