Kelce, a five-time Pro-Bowler, has earned four All-Pro honours and has played his entire career with the Eagles since they drafted him in the sixth round of the 2011 NFL Draft. He won the Super Bowl with Philadelphia in 2018.

One of the league's best centres, Kelce has a streak of 122 consecutive regular-season games played that he will look to extend with his return.

The 34-year-old is an anchor for Philadelphia's offensive line, as a standout in pass-blocking allowing just one sack this season.
