Philadelphia Eagles legend Jason Kelce is the man of the people.
While on his London trip to attend the Taylor Swift Eras Tour, Kelce spotted an Eagles fan repping his jersey and surprised him.
With his wife recording a video, Kelce approached the young man, tapped him on the shoulder, and asked if he wanted to take a photo.
The young boy was shocked and speechless.
His father later took to X/Twitter to share the sweet video and thanked Kelce and his wife for the moment of a lifetime.
"Just wanna say a massive thank you to @JasonKelce if we did not already know it what a legend you are and for your wife to record it. We will be forever greatful for this interaction, even the shock it caused #newheightsshow #eagles @newheightshow #kelce #gobirds."
Kelce, who the Eagles selected in the sixth round of the 2011 draft, started in all 193 appearances over his 13-year NFL career, earning six first-team All-Pro nods and seven Pro Bowls before he retired in March.
Kelce will be missed by many fans, including those "across the pond," when the Eagles take the field in Week 1 this upcoming season.
But fans won't have to miss him too much since he won't be giving up football altogether after signing a multi-year deal with ESPN's Monday Night Football.
Jason Kelce Shared His Favorite Moment From the Eras Tour
Kelce is a new Swiftie fan, but a big one.
After watching Swift perform for three hours at Wembley Stadium, he shared his favorite moment from the show with his fans on the New Heights podcast.
Swift does this awesome acoustic set where she performs a few surprise songs every night without her backup singers, band, or dancers. It's just her and a guitar or a piano.
That was Kelce's favorite part.
“That’s my favorite part. I know everybody, right from the go, it’s banger after banger – The man, Wyatt’s favorite song. It was the second song. We recorded that and sent it over to Wy. But the acoustic set, first of all I just love acoustic," Jason explained on the latest episode of the New Heights podcast. "When it’s just a musician, it’s just her, a guitar, and 90,000. And obviously the 90,000 people are all singing the song, so she does have some support. And she’s blending from one song to another.
"To be good in front of 90,000 people with just that you have to be amazing. And you have to, one, have great songs and great lyrics, which she obviously has written and made, and two, be able to perform those seamlessly on the spot, nothing else to hide. Just that was the highlight of the evening for me."
