Retirement looks good on Jason Kelce<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 and he\u2019s planning to keep it that way.<\/span><\/p>\n

The former Philadelphia Eagles center, 36, retired after 13 seasons<\/a> in March. In the time since, he\u2019s made it a priority to start slimming down.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cRight now, I\u2019m about 277. I\u2019m almost 20 pounds down right now,\u201d Kelce told GQ<\/i><\/a> in a story published Wednesday, June 26. \u201cIt\u2019s hard to imagine another nearly 20 pounds coming off, being honest with you. But my back already feels better. My knees already feel better. So another 20 pounds hopefully will make that much more adept at playing with my children.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Kelce and wife Kylie<\/strong> share daughters Wyatt, 4, Ellie, 3, and Bennett, 16 months.<\/span><\/p>\n

The seven-time Pro Bowler said he weighed 295 pounds \u201cfor the majority of my NFL career\u201d and while he expressed optimism about continuing to shed some weight, don\u2019t expect him to go crazy.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want to get too<\/i> small,\u201d Kelce noted. \u201cI think a lot of guys, especially offensive linemen, they lose too much weight, and then they look like bobbleheads because their neck gets so small, but their head stays the same size.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Kelce is hoping to land in the range of 250 to 260 pounds when all is said and done.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll still be big and be happy with the way I look without having a six-pack,\u201d he said. \u201cBut I\u2019ll still be able to have that stature a little bit.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The \u201cNew Heights\u201d podcast<\/a> cohost acknowledged that after a life spent on the gridiron, his body was ravaged. So when it came time to retire, he made his decision with fatherhood on the brain.<\/span><\/p>\n
