Jason Kelce's Stunning Reason for Declining College Commencement Speech

Jason Kelce is considered a legend by a majority of NFL fans.

From his on-field excellence, marked by six First-Team All-Pro selections and a Super Bowl win, to his off-season adventures like turning up at Taylor Swift concerts, the future Hall of Famer has always found a way to keep his fans entertained.

Kelce’s latest installment of his post-career adventures happened recently, as this occasion included his beloved wife – Kylie Kelce.

Kelce was said to have been slated to deliver Villanova’s commencement address but opted out to ensure that his wife Kylie could have the spotlight for her own commencement speech at her alma mater.

It's not much of a surprise, considering how much Kelce has raved about his family on his podcast New Heights Show, with his brother and co-host, Travis Kelce

"He never lets an opportunity pass to allow Kylie to shine," said one individual. 

"I loathe the Eagles, but I’ll always be a Jason Kelce fan. Dude is an even better guy off of the field, while being a HOF on it," added another. 

Jason and Kylie met on a dating app back in 2014, and are now married with three kids
