We&#8217;re speaking to those who are 30 to 40 and older. There&#8217;s only one franchise legend of recent memory that this fan base loves as much as Jason Kelce. That&#8217;s Brian Dawkins.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a different type of love, though. Weapon X was our superhero. Kelce is the guy we wish we could chug a beer with. Both are two of the greatest to ever lace up a pair of cleats as members of this proud organization.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Dawkins&#8217; Number 20 jersey is retired. We imagine Kelce&#8217;s No. 62 will be as well. At least we don&#8217;t have to worry about missing the latter. Is it just us, or do we see him more since he&#8217;s retired than we did when he was playing?<\/p>\n<p>Whether it be his New Heights podcast, his work with ESPN, or his frequent appearances around the City of Brotherly Love, Kelce is woven into this town&#8217;s fabric like cheesesteak and Tastykakes. The love he&#8217;s showered with is never-ending, and he is always willing to give love in return.<\/p>\n<p>Jason Kelce praises the Philadelphia media for its demanding nature.<\/p>\n<p>Terms like &#8216;Negadelphia&#8217; didn&#8217;t come from nowhere. The <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsdata.usatoday.com\/football\/nfl\/teams\/philadelphia-eagles\/354\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Eagles;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Eagles<\/a> are 2-0, and depending on who you speak with, you&#8217;d think they dropped two to begin the season. Good isn&#8217;t good enough. Playing in this city requires tougher and thicker skin.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Kelce has always welcomed that. During a recent visit to 94 WIP-FM, he did it again. Here&#8217;s a take you won&#8217;t often hear about the Philadelphia media.<\/p>\n<p>We respectfully disagree. Sometimes, this media landscape takes things too far. Sometimes, love turns into lunacy. We did mention this team is 2-0 after two games, didn&#8217;t we?<\/p>\n<p>All jokes aside, tell Mr. Kelce we appreciate the sentiment when you see him. Eagles Nation is a family. The passion is a birthright, and that&#8217;s true whether you&#8217;re a Birds fan in the Delaware Valley or anywhere else on Planet Earth.<\/p>\n<p>This article originally appeared on Eagles Wire: <a href=\"https:\/\/theeagleswire.usatoday.com\/story\/sports\/nfl\/eagles\/2025\/09\/18\/jason-kelce-salutes-philadelphia-media-demanding-nature\/86222607007\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Jason Kelce salutes the Philadelphia media&#039;s demanding nature;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Jason Kelce salutes the Philadelphia media&#8217;s demanding nature<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Some of you older Philadelphia Eagles fans can attest to this.
