Jason Kelce and Kylie Kelce
On March 4, Jason Kelce announced his retirement from the NFL after 13 seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles. Little did he know that his wife, Kylie Kelce, had been planning his retirement gift for two years.
The former Eagles WAG shared photos of the thoughtful present—a wooden replica of Lincoln Financial Field—on her Instagram Story on Monday, April 22.
"I messaged @danatheo.designs TWO years ago! She came up with this beautiful custom design and then waited for me to give the retirement green light and J's final list of accolades," Kylie captioned a close-up of the stats etched onto wood.
In another Instagram Story segment, Kylie re-posted a video from the designer. "Thank you so much @danatheo.designs for your patience and the perfect retirement gift! 🥰" Kylie reiterated. "It meant the world to me!💚🖤🦅"

During Jason's emotional retirement announcement speech, the NFL center reflected on his journey and everyone who helped him along the way. He also gushed about Kylie, with whom he shares three daughters, Wyatt, 4, Elliotte, 2, and Bennett, 1.
"I won't forget the Eagles Christmas party in 2014, and heading out afterward with a bunch of my teammates to Buffalo Billiards, where my life would change forever," he recounted, getting choked up. "That night, I'd meet my future wife."
Jason added: "I still remember the moment she walked through the door. The first instance is burned into my retina. It was like she glided through the opening, an aura around her, then she started talking. And I thought, 'Man, is this what love feels like?'"
