Center Jason Kelce of the Philadelphia Eagles recently participated in a 5K charity run and couldn’t resist making fun of himself after the NFL star’s videos were circulated online.
Recently, Jason Kelce posted videos on social media and completed a 5K for charity. The Philadelphia Eagles player participated in this past weekend’s Mike’s Seafood Run Walk for Autism in New Jersey.
As he finished the race at Excursion Park, fans recorded him and took photos. Social media users shared a video of Jason, who appeared worn out and perspiring as he crossed the finish line. The video was captioned “Jason Kelce ran a 5K to raise money for autism” by Fox Sports.
On Wednesday, Kelce retweeted this post and laughed, saying, “Ran is a generous verb for what transpired.” But we had a great time.
On Facebook, the charity praised Jason for his support. They added, “JASON KELCE WE LOVE YOU!” along with pictures from the fundraiser. We appreciate you being here and helping.”
Charity has always been Jason’s passion. Since he first entered the league in 2011, he has collaborated with the Eagles Autism Foundation annually. In addition to volunteering for the organization, Jason’s wife Kylie is employed by his NFL team. She frequently holds auctions to raise money.
Both Jason and his younger brother Travis Kelce have been considering ways in which they can support the victims of the heartbreaking mass shooting that occurred on February 14 at the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl parade. One person died and twenty-three were injured in the unfortunate incident.
“We simply wanted to express our condolences to all of the victims, their families, Chiefs Kingdom, and really the entire Kansas City community who attended on a day intended to honor the community,” Travis stated.
“The events that transpired are regrettable and extremely tragic,” Jason continued. We also wanted to express our gratitude to the first responders, local law police, and everyone else who was ready to assist those impacted by this tragedy.”
Travis has already donated $100,000 to the parents of the two kids who suffered injuries during the parade. Taylor Swift, his girlfriend, has also contributed $150,000.
