Jason Kelce is gifted $7k SAXOPHONE by local Philadelphia business in honor of his Eagles retirement
Jason Kelce was presented with an unexpected retirement gift during a charity golf outing on Monday: a saxophone.
The former Eagles center, who announced his retirement this offseason, played the instrument in high school and has spoken frequently about his affinity for music.
And with plenty more time on his hands after hanging up his cleats, Kelce will have a beautiful baritone saxophone to play, as seen in a video from Philly radio station WIP.
The sax was one from brand P. Mauriat, whose baritone saxophones sell for around $7,000.
Kelce was presented the gift by the Vincera Institute, a Philly orthopedic clinic, and exclaimed ‘This is nice!’ as he was handed the instrument.
‘So maybe I’ll be able to walk down Broad Street with this thing this year.’
After Kelce was given the instrument, one of the event’s attendees played ‘Fly Eagles Fly’ on his own soprano saxophone for the crowd.
