Before a commercial break in the Fox broadcast, Eagles offensive guard Jason Kelce showed off his intensity during a crazy moment in the first half of the team’s rivalry game against the Cowboys.
Lot Of Drama For Jason Kelce: First Screams At Opponent, Later On Goes For Awaiting Drug Test
A Philadelphia Inquirer photo showed that on his 36th birthday, after leading the Eagles to a thrilling victory over the Cowboys, the NFL had a drug test notice ready for Eagles center Jason Kelce.
When the two came face to face late in the second quarter, Kelce was blocking Dallas’s Damone Clark. Kelce was seen cocking his head back and letting out what looked to be a loud scream directly into his opponent’s face as he grabbed onto Clark’s shoulder pads.

As soon as the video of Kelce yelling in Clark’s face went viral, supporters expressed their admiration for his humorous actions on his 36th birthday and how much they liked his odd persistence.
Before halftime, the Eagles had knotted the game at 14, which perhaps prompted Kelce’s outburst.

In his 13 years with the Philadelphia Eagles, Kelce has grown to be the team’s leader and inspiration. On Sunday, he also celebrated his birthday.
In the most recent episode of his podcast, “New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce,” which airs every Wednesday, Kelce is expected to discuss his viral outburst.

When the Eagles were driving close to the Dallas end zone, Clark swatted at Kelce’s helmet, causing another altercation between the two throughout the game.
Given that Kelce has said he may retire soon, this might be his final game in the rivalry.

Recently, Kelce was questioned about the extra duties he has taken on off the field. Most prominently, he and his brother Travis created the “New Heights” podcast last season, during which time both Jason’s Eagles and Travis’ Chiefs made it to the Super Bowl.
“We took on a lot last year, and it ended up working out really, really well for Travis and I at the end of the season, although we [the Eagles] did come up one game short,” Jason told the NFL Report last month.

“I think it is a lot, and I think the way we’ve justified it as a family is this [playing football] is going to be over pretty soon here. If it’s this year, which it very well could be, we want to make sure that we’re ready to go when football’s done.”

Philadelphia has the best record in the NFL going into their Week 10 bye.
Every other NFL club has at least two defeats, but the Eagles boast an 8-1 record.
The Eagles win the NFC East by a wide margin over the Cowboys (5-3), and thus are the top seed in the NFC playoffs, ahead of the San Francisco 49ers (5-3) and the Detroit Lions (6-2).
