Jason Kelce Receives Retirement Gift: Replica Stadium from Wife Kylie
Former NFL center Jason Kelce has received a special retirement gift from his wife, Kylie: a wooden replica of Lincoln Financial Field, his former home stadium with the Philadelphia Eagles. The intricate design includes Kelce’s accolades and jersey number, creating a unique and meaningful memento of his illustrious career.
Kylie Kelce planned the surprise gift two years ago, collaborating with designer Dana Theobald to create a custom design that reflects her husband’s achievements. Theobald’s website reveals that her stadium replicas are meticulously crafted, using laser-cut wood pieces assembled by hand. She primarily studies the stadium’s design using Google Earth.
Jason Kelce retired from the NFL in March after 13 seasons with the Eagles. He is the only center to have won a Super Bowl and earn first-team All-Pro honors six times since the 1970 merger, solidifying his legacy as one of the greatest centers in NFL history.
