  • Gotta love two brothers who are not embarrassed to cry on a public stage. Say what you will, they are cool men and in touch with their emotions.
  • Trav is out here making grown men cry. That’s what millions of kids wanted growing up, to be able to play along side their brother in professional sports. Love you two
  • Jason gives the best speeches, he is so honest and raw and emotional and beautiful.

    The man spoke his truth so eloquently and touched all of our hearts💚Being real is why he is such a beloved athlete and man🫡✊🏻
  • @JoelElRican
    One thing I understand about Jason is that he loves to be a big brother. I know the feeling 😌
  • You should be announcer! You have the humor, knowledge of the game, and voice!
  • @OriginalMomo
    Jason, be proud brother. You’re one of the most loved eagle’s ever. Now is the time to heal and enjoy being a husband and father. Much love, big man. Big Scott, 49, Findlay Ohio

    I actually believe Jason would’ve stayed another year if Trav would’ve mentioned anything about it. They just that ride or die for each other. Super dope. Also shows how much he loves his brother that he knew that he would be willing to still play if Trav wanted him to.

    While your speech was perfect and made me sob uncontrollably, I'm not gonna lie: Travis's idea of just going "All alright I'm done!" And jumping through a flaming table would have been pretty damn iconic. I'm sure Kylie appreciated your restraint.
  • @danielmelo7146
    Thank you, Jason. Best center in the history of the National Football League.
  • The retirement speech was so deep and personal. It was totally amazing, I cried several times. What he said about the coaches, family, and what was said about Kylie. As a wife, it touched my heart. And the closeness between the brothers. You will have an amazing future. Thoughts and prayers. ❤

    I just love the LOVE between the Kielce brothers and their mom and dad. They’re the poster family of what America is about.
  • @DarciBayles
    Travis, thanks for the tears. I'm tearing up now too. The love you both have for each other is freaking great! I'm not a kc or eagles fan, but after watching your show... I might just switch up. Haha. Congratulations Jason!
  • Wow, even though they’ve mentioned they don’t have a big family the bond they have is all a person could ever need. So blessed
  • @beckyjones6956
    I cried watching that whole press conference. When someone shows their heart like that it is so touching!
  • @scm0717
    I love the pride and love they have for each other. They both keep it real. Trav, you are an honorary Philadelphian.
