Campbell’s Chunky is releasing its first-ever “legend edition””can to honor Jason Kelce.
Campbell’s Chunky is celebrating the Philadelphia Eagles center, 36, by making him the face of the brand’s “Legend Edition” can. The limited-edition can recognizes the father of three’s impact on the Philly community as well as his 13-season football career.
The design transforms Campbell’s iconic red and white look into an Eagles-inspired one. The green can has a large outline of Kelce’s iconic bushy beard and eyebrows. His signature is inscribed, too. The top of the can also has the player’s name and jersey number (62). (Be)Philly was launched in 2022 and is a non-profit focused on providing support to Philadelphia public school students. Kelce “founded and put a lot of heart into” the organization, he said in a statement.
On Monday, Kelce announced his decision to retire from the NFL after 13 seasons in the league, seven Pro Bowl selections, six first-team All-Pro selections and one Super Bowl title.
In an emotional press conference at the Philadelphia Eagles Training Center at the NovaCare Complex, Kelce, who was drafted by the team in the sixth round of the 2011 NFL Draft, reminisced about his love of the game, which began when he was a boy in Cleveland Heights, Ohio.
