Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce dyed his hair blonde and the veteran lineman looks downright unrecognizable.
Jason Kelce is a fan favorite for the Philadelphia Eagles and nothing will ever change that. The veteran offensive lineman is a treasure in the City of Brotherly Love, as his outstanding personality is tough to match.
Take his latest move for example. Kelce showed up on Tuesday with his hair dyed blonde, looking like Eminem. What in the heck led him to making this decision?
A lost bet with Zach Ertz resulted in Jason Kelce dying his hair blonde
As it turns out, Kelce made a bet with tight end Zach Ertz that he’d get traded in the offseason. The trade rumors surrounding Ertz were flying around all summer, as it really looked like he had played his last game with the Eagles.
Ertz ended up staying put, which was great news for him and Eagles fans. As happy as Kelce is to have Ertz back in the locker room with him, he still was a man of his word and paid up on the hilarious bet. Folks on Twitter are laughing with Kelce over his new look.
In the season-opening win over Atlanta, Ertz finished the day with two receptions for 34 yards. There’s no denying his production for Philly has dropped a bit in recent years, but he’s still got the potential to be an outstanding pass-catcher for the team.
With Jalen Hurts taking over the offense, he’ll of course look at Ertz to be a key target for him from start to finish this campaign. As for Kelce, he’ll keep on making brilliant plays in the trenches. He may want to think twice about his next bet with Ertz, though.
