15 MINUTES AGO! Jason Kelce Breaks Silence from Hospital Bed, Confirms Private Medical Treatment.
Philadelphia, PA – In a surprising update shared just minutes ago, former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce posted his first photo from a hospital bed, addressing weeks of speculation about his health.
The retired NFL star, 38, appeared in the image looking upbeat despite the clinical surroundings, offering a thumbs-up to the camera while surrounded by medical equipment. Accompanying the photo was a brief but reassuring caption in which Kelce confirmed he had undergone a private medical procedure.
“I’ve been keeping things low-key, but the rumors got a bit out of hand,” Kelce wrote. “Had some treatment done—nothing too dramatic—and the results are positive. Feeling good and already itching to get back to my family, the podcast, and probably too many beers. Thanks for the love and concern, everyone.”
Fans and media had buzzed for weeks over unconfirmed reports of health issues, fueled by Kelce’s limited public appearances and occasional vague comments on his New Heights podcast with brother Travis Kelce. Speculation ranged from routine check-ups to more serious concerns, though no official details had emerged until now.
The post quickly garnered support from across the NFL community, with well-wishes pouring in from former teammates, broadcasters, and celebrities. Brother Travis Kelce reposted the image with a simple heart emoji, while Eagles fans flooded social media with messages of relief and encouragement.
Kelce retired from professional football in 2024 after a decorated 13-year career, largely spent with the Eagles, where he earned six Pro Bowl selections and a Super Bowl championship. Since stepping away from the game, he has focused on family life, media projects, and advocacy work.
No further details about the nature of the treatment were provided, and Kelce indicated he plans to return to his regular routine soon. His representatives have not commented beyond the social media update.
The former All-Pro’s candor and positive tone have eased concerns, reminding fans why his straightforward personality has made him a beloved figure both on and off the field.
