Jason Kelce was actually similar to each different Eagles fan during the offseason.
He completely expected tight end Zach Ertz would get exchanged after Ertz communicated his disappointment over his agreement last season prior to giving seemingly a mournful goodbye in his postseason question and answer session in January.
The bits of hearsay continued all through the spring and as instructional course drew closer. So when Kelce and Ertz began working out together at the NovaCare Complex, the two made a bet.
Ertz had recently colored his hair fair, and Kelce said in case Ertz was as yet on the list for the season opener that he, as well, would color his hair light. Ertz accepting the bet as he expected to stay an Eagle.

Ertz, obviously, has been chosen to the Pro Bowl multiple times in his profession, and he set the standard for gatherings by a tight end in a solitary season with 116 of every 2018. In any case, Ertz had a physical issue filled season in 2020, posting vocation lows in gatherings with 36 and yards with 335.
Ertz had missed five games with a messed up lower leg that necessary medical procedure after the season, despite the fact that he played the last six rounds of the period before it had completely mended. Ertz portrayed that as "freakin' incapacitating" as the Eagles went through a 4-11-1 season.
A short time later, lead trainer Doug Pederson was terminated and quarterback Carson Wentz, probably Ertz's dearest companion, was exchanged, and a few different veterans weren't brought back.
Ertz, who's 30, likewise was expected $8.5 million this season, the last year of his agreement.
So the exchange wants appeared to be shared for both Ertz and the Eagles. But then, Ertz remained, saying last week that he "repaired countenances" and "expressions of remorse were made."
Ertz had two gets for 34 yards last Sunday in the Eagles' 32-6 success over the Atlanta Falcons.
Kelce wouldn't say how long he needed to keep his hair colored light, yet he's not a major fanatic of it. Nor is his significant other. Also, thinking back, Kelce said he ought to have realized Ertz was returning when they made the bet in July.
"I figure (Ertz) may have known by then (that he was remaining), which is what I'm sitting doing here with this hair," Kelce said with a giggle. "A little inside data.
"He had recently begun working back out in the office, which presumably should've been one more sign to me that he'd be returning. Truly glad that Zach is still here."
