PHILADELPHIA, Pa. (WHTM) – At the NFL Annual League Meeting on Tuesday Philadelphia Eagles chairman and CEO Jeffrey Lurie commented on how Jason Kelce will remain a part of the Eagles culture.
“What happens with us, and I think you’ll see it with both Jason and Fletch. . . is they’re a part of the organization (after retirement),” said Lurie. “I don’t expect any of them to not be a part of what we’re doing as the decades go by.”
Lurie says that the long-term relationship built with players in Philadelphia is part of what makes the team special.
“These are guys that you’re going to see around us forever, at least as long as I’m around and I think it goes long after that,” Lurie said. “It’s part of why I love our team so much.”
As far as celebrations for Kelce and Fletcher Cox, Lurie says there will definitely be something, but the details haven’t been solidified yet.
“They deserve it,” Lurie said. “There’s going to be, I’m sure, lots of celebrations.”
