The Philadelphia Eagles could be without one of their greatest players ever next season.
Future Hall of Famer C Jason Kelce is reportedly still considering retirement, and he might not be ready to make a decision any time soon.
NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal recently shared a big piece of advice with his fellow athlete.
Talking on his podcast, Shaq urged Kelce to enjoy his retirement and his family.
“My advice to you is if you are going to retire, accept it and enjoy your family brother,” O’Neal said.

He stated that he should enjoy his beautiful wife and beautiful kids and take care of them, stating that he lost his whole family and had to be in a 100,000-square-foot house by himself.
Shaq has been quite open about his post-retirement days.
He also told Kelce to enjoy what he had but not dwell on that, as everybody already knows who he is, as he’s already got his praise and recognition for what he did.
Not many people talk about how some athletes often struggle to adapt to the post-playing days, but that’s a real issue.
Athletes often define themselves by what they’re able to do on the court or field, and they struggle to find a new identity once they’re no longer able to play.
Fortunately for him, Kelce has his toes dipped in several endeavors already, including his successful New Heights podcast, so he’s going to stay quite busy even if he’s no longer blocking for Jalen Hurts.
