Though their stories may vary, every superhero's tale contains similarities with one another. They all have an origin story, that moment that set them on their paths, and, of course, a list of adversaries they must tackle. Jason Kelce is superhero of sorts. He wasn't bitten by a spider or live in a Batcave, but he's a hero, mostly because he was short and a former sixth-round draft choice who became one of the greatest Philadelphia Eagles ever.

Oh, there's one more thing about superheroes. They all also have a weakness. We have finally found something Jason Kelce can't do.

One of the greatest Eagles to ever wear green is actually human like the rest of us.

This past Saturday, ESPN's highly popular College Gameday team descended on Happy Valley for what has been deemed by some as 'the game of the year'. The world famous Ohio State Buckeyes were on Penn State's turf to tackle the mighty and hometown Nittany Lions.

One of the broadcast's staples is, believe it or not, a field-goal attempt. Pat McAfee gives away scholarship money if a lucky study can nail one.

Jason Kelce doesn't need any. You may have heard. He's pretty successful, but just for kicks (pun intended), Pat let him attempt one anyway.

Let's just say it didn't go well...

As fun as that was, we learned something today. We truly thought Jason Kelce could do anything. As it turns out, he's human like the rest of us. Sure, there's a recording artist and a WWE star in there somewhere. He's a TV star and one of the greatest football players ever seen, but Superman's kryptonite has finally been revealed.

No wonder he wasn't on the Eagles' special teams unit!

So, Jason can't kick field goals under pressure. Oh well, that's life sometimes we guess. He'll just have to settle for his bust being carved and being placed in the Pro Football Hall of Fame down there in beautiful Canton, Ohio.
