Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce dropped multiple F-bombs in a very passionate interview with NBC Sports Philadelphia after the team’s 41-33 Super Bowl victory over the New England Patriots on Sunday night.
After being asked what just happened, Kelce said, “We just won the fucking Super Bowl is what just happened. It’s hard to put into words how fucking… how hard this is.”
Kelce — the older brother of Chiefs’ star tight end Travis Kelce — then looked straight into the camera with an incredible rant about how much the team overcame adversity and was doubted by the media all year.
Later, Kelce met with the media with a much quieter, but equally as emotional interview in which he broke down into tears.

Kelce, 30, has spent his entire career with the Eagles and was named a first-team All-Pro this season. He went from being a walk-on at Cincinnati, to being a sixth-round pick by the Eagles, to being a huge part of a Super Bowl champion’s success.
