Kelce declined to talk with reporters in the locker room after the game, saying: “No guys, not today.”

“I love him,” Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said. “He’s special and I love him. He’s one of the most special guys I’ve been around. He’s always got a place here.”

Kelce played this season on a one-year contract and was set to become a free agent in March.
