You know, that superstar running back who was all about the<strong>\u00a0New York Giants<\/strong>\u00a0until he took his skills to the\u00a0<strong>Philadelphia Eagles<\/strong>. Yeah, that guy!

Kelce is all about shedding light on how it\u2019s\u00a0kinda\u00a0misplaced anger. The dude just wanted to play ball and got a fat contract with the Eagles because the Giants didn\u2019t pay up.
