Jason Kelce 'Flattered' By Fan's Racy Tattoo
The former Eagles center has been immortalized on a fan's body in a cartoon-style pinup tattoo that features an eagle head in his crotch.
PHILADELPHIA — Philadelphia sports fans truly love their teams.
And one Eagles fan has gone so far as to get former Eagles legend Jason Kelce tattooed on his body, and the tattoo is quite the eye raiser.
The Super Bowl champion center took to social media to react to the tattoo, which was initially shared on TikTok Thursday by tattoo artist Joseph Moreira of Pale Horse Tattoo Studio in Philadelphia.

"I’m not sure if I should be offended or flattered," Kelce said Thursday afternoon on social media while resharing a video of the tattoo.
The tattoo features Kelce in a sort of pinup model pose with a cartoon-like style.

He is seemingly nude, save for elbow and knee pads, socks, and cleats.
And, in the caricature's crotch area, an eagle head is poking out.
About ten minutes after his initial reaction, Kelce followed up.
"I think it’s more flattered, it’s a generous bird, good sized head," he said online.
Kylie Kelce even got in on the fun.
"Excuse me???" she commented on Moreira's TikTok post. That comment garnered nearly 66,000 likes. She also said she "doesn’t even know where to start," regarding the racy tattoo.
The TikTok account for Kelce's podcast, which he hosts with brother Travis Kelce, chimed in, as well.
"This. Is. Art," the official account posted on Moreira's video.
