2. The best Jason Kelce replacement options might already be on the roster.
Constructive criticism is the birthright of any Eagles fan. No one loves their team more than this fan base. No one is more critical of their team than this fan base. It was once said that an Eagles fan learns to boo before they learn to do anything else. You’ll never hear any jeers thrown in the direction of Jason Kelce though, nor will you hear any hatred for the best offensive line coach in the NFL, Jeff Stoutland.
Whoever the Eagles pass the torch to following Jason Kelce’s retirement will be in great hands. He’ll be surrounded by solid teammates, and he’ll have great coaching to learn under.
The question is this. Is Kelce’s successor already on the roster? They have some solid options if they choose to roll with one of them.
Landon Dickerson was a Unanimous All-American that was a part of an Alabama Crimson Tide team that won a College Football Playoff National Championship. He took home the Rimington Trophy (an award given to the player considered to be the best center in college football) along with the Jacobs Blocking Trophy and a First-Team All-SEC nod in the process.
There’s also Isaac Seumalo. He’s signed through the 2022 NFL season. He’s one of the game’s underrated interior linemen and someone we’ve mentioned as the man that would take over for Jason Kelce before. Don’t forget about Jack Anderson either. He’s a center/guard hybrid that this team and its coaches love
The point is this Philly has options on this roster. All are in-house. All are better than what they have in free agency. In Dickerson, Anderson, and Seumalo, the Birds have solid succession plans under their noses. All they have to do is take a whiff.
