Jason Kelce Receives Drug Test Notice From NFL Following Animated Behavior During Eagles Vs Cowboys
Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce found himself on the receiving end of a drug test notice from the NFL immediately after the Eagles secured 28-23 victory over their arch-rivals, the Dallas Cowboys on Monday.
Interestingly, the random drug test notice coincided with Kelce”s 36th birthday.
Also, the drug test notice came after Kelce”s animated behavior during the Eagles versus Cowboys game.
At one point, cameras captured Kelce screaming in the face of Dallas Cowboys linebacker Damone Clark.
The heated exchange between the two players was just one of the many dramatic moments during the high-stakes showdown.
Kelce and Clark engaged in another heated confrontation during the game as Clark attempted to grab Kelce”s helmet while the Eagles were making progress towards the Dallas end zone.
So, why did Jason Kelce receive a drug test notice?
It”s important to note that drug tests are a routine part of NFL regulations, and players are subject to testing for prohibited substances at least once a year.
The selection process for testing is entirely random and conducted by a computer, ensuring fairness and compliance with league rules.
In the latest revelation on his podcast, ‘New Heights,” co-hosted by his younger brother, Travis Kelce, the Eagles” veteran center shed light on the fiery on-field exchange with Clark.
Contrary to initial perceptions, Kelce stated that he wasn”t screaming at the Cowboys defender; rather, he was “laughing as loud as [he] could in his face.”
Jason Kelce had been contemplating retirement over the past couple of seasons.
He has been a cornerstone of the Eagles” offensive line for an incredible 13 seasons.
Drafted as a sixth-round pick in 2011, Kelce”s journey with the franchise has been nothing short of remarkable.
During his illustrious career, Kelce has started all 183 games.
One of the pinnacle moments in Jason Kelce”s career was the Eagles” Super Bowl victory in 2017, where he played a crucial role in their championship run.
