Eagles ‘completely botched’ Jason Kelce’s name when they drafted future Hall of Famer

Published

on

Jason ‘Kelsey’ is who the Philadelphia Eagles thought they were getting in the 2011 NFL Draft.

The seven-time Pro Bowler was a relative unknown coming out of the University of Cincinnati over a decade ago.

The Eagles took a punt on the offensive lineman with a sixth-round pick (191st overall) in the 2011 draft but not even they were entirely familiar with who he was.

“The #Eagles select C Jason Kelsey from Cincinnati with the 191st pick!” the team wrote in a now-infamous social media post.

“Man I dont know about this one…Hes probably going to be a bust but hey we will see down the road,” one person later joked.

Jason and his younger brother Travis discussed the unfortunate misspelling on an episode of their New Heights podcast following Jason’s retirement at the end of last season.

“Completely botched your name and now you’re the greatest player to ever play in the Eagles uniform,” Travis told Jason, who said he hadn’t even realized the mistake at the time.
