As the world offers more ways to become distracted, it becomes increasingly difficult to focus on things for very long. For just under an hour, the legend Jason Kelce offered an emotional and heartfelt farewell to the Philadelphia Eagles, those who helped him along the way, and Birds fans all over Planet Earth. Unsurprisingly, it was impossible to turn away.

It was a walk down memory lane of sorts. Stories were told of Malcolm Jenkins firing up an eventual Super Bowl winner after it lost MVP candidate, Carson Wentz. The G.O.A,T. offered his memories on everything from LeSean McCoy's iconic cut and run versus the Detroit Lions in the Snow Bowl to the Philly Special call in Super Bowl LII to the first time he met his wife Kylie.

He's from Cleveland Heights, Ohio and one of the Buckeye State's' favorite sons, but he may as well be a Philadelphian. He'll never have to pay for a meal or a beer in the City of Brotherly Love again.

He's suited up for his final game with the Birds, and that thought isn't lost on the Eagles' social media team or the other professional sports franchises that represent the city where he spent his entire career playing. As you might expect, the news of his decision almost broke social media.

Talk about emotions... As you might expect, the outpouring of support from fans, coaches, media members, family, and teammates both past and present has been amazing.

How about another round of applause for the Eagles' social media team? They're the best in the biz, and they rocked out with quite the visual to celebrate a true Philly icon. Check that clip out and the full presser below.
