Eagles’ Jason Kelce’s Wife Respondents To Their Parenting Being Criticised
In response to the negativity her husband faced after a cute Instagram video of him playing with his two girls on the field went viral, Kylie Kelce resorted to social media.
After receiving criticism for “playing fetch” with their kids, Jason and Kylie Kelce are trolling their detractors. It’s a complete textbook in how to refute a false online narrative.

A video of Jason, a center for the Philadelphia Eagles, playing with his two oldest kids at training camp was posted on Tuesday by the NFL and the Philadelphia Eagles. He alternated between throwing balls across the field for Wyatt, 3, and Elliotte, 2, to chase after and bring back to him while he sat on the field.
Most people thought the video showed a sweet moment between a father and his children, but a sizable number of fans took issue, saying Kelce was “playing fetch” with his kids, a game usually played by dogs.

Wife Kylie addressed the allegations on her Instagram story, though, and denied any wrongdoing on the part of her husband.
“People in these comments saying, ‘He’s playing fetch with his kids like they are dogs!'” she said. “Just say you don’t have toddlers.”
In addition, Kylie Kelce mentioned that her husband was keeping score and said, “They are technically racing.”

The pair decided to completely embrace the absurdity of it all on Wednesday by creating a humorous response video directed at the parenting skeptics. The brief video, which Kylie posted on her Instagram Story, features Jason playing football with their daughter Elliotte and a cute puppy.

The dad continually tells his dog and his daughter to “sit,” pausing to motion back and forth between them and saying “Good job, Ellie” after his 2-year-old daughter sits down. Then, with encouragement in his voice, he commands, “Now roll over! Move aside!” The video’s cheeky caption said, “Practiced fetch on Tuesday… It was basic instructions today. Looks like the Kelces are barking the last laugh, and we can’t help but cackle too.

In March, Kelce declared that he will be playing in the NFL for a record 13th season.
