Jason Kelce isn't done yet.

The six-time Pro Bowl center announced Monday that he's returning for a 13th season with the Philadelphia Eagles.

"I have put much thought into whether it makes sense to play another season," the 35-year-old Kelce tweeted. "After talking it over with my wife and many other friends and family, I have decided to return for another year. Thank you to all my supporters and detractors for fueling me."

Kelce is coming off one of the best seasons of his decorated career. He helped the Eagles build arguably the league's top offensive line en route to Super Bowl LVII where they fell short against the Kansas City Chiefs.

He was the NFL's second-highest-graded center in 2022 after not allowing a sack in 653 pass block snaps played, according to PFF. He's allowed only one sack and no quarterback hits over the last two seasons.

Regarded as one of the best and most reliable centers in NFL history, Kelce has started every game for the Eagles since 2015. The five-time first-team All-Pro also helped Philly win Super Bowl LII.

Kelce was one of three Pro Bowlers on Philadelphia's offensive line last season along with right tackle Lane Johnson and guard Landon Dickerson. The Eagles won a franchise-best 14 games in 2022.
