Eagles center Jason Kelce has some musical chops too
Jason Kelce probably shouldn’t give up his day job as a Pro Bowl center of the Philadelphia Eagles, but the big man isn’t a bad musician in his spare time.
Kelce went on WXPN in Philadelphia and belted out a couple songs, a cover of Jason Isbell’s “Cover Me Up” and an original song, “Homes Change.”

Kelce doesn’t exactly have a soft, soothing voice, but check it out:
Hey, he’s good enough and confident enough that he was happy to go on the air to sing and play. Pretty talented guy.
Kelce told WXPN he played saxophone in the high school jazz band, but “When I went off to college, I knew people in the dorm didn’t want to hear a saxophone going off. So I taught myself to play guitar.”
You can tell by his singing that he feels something for music, and takes it seriously. Kelce is only 27 and still in his prime, but maybe he has something in mind for when his NFL career is finished.
