ST.Jason Kelce Sends Strong Message Before Eagles–Packers Game — “The Tush Push Isn’t Going Anywhere”
Philadelphia, PA – November 10, 2025
Former Philadelphia Eagles center and future Hall of Famer Jason Kelce appeared on Good Morning America this week and sent a clear message ahead of his old team’s Week 10 clash with the Green Bay Packers — the
Tush Push isn’t going anywhere.
The legendary lineman, who anchored the Eagles’ offensive line through the rise of the controversial short-yardage play, said he fully expects head coach Nick Sirianni and quarterback Jalen Hurts to keep using the tactic that has defined the team’s physical identity.
“They’ll do it against everybody,” Kelce said with a grin. “So it won’t be too different.”
The comment comes with extra spice, as the Packers were one of the franchises that lobbied hardest this offseason to ban the Tush Push, citing player safety concerns and competitive imbalance. Their proposal fell short by just two votes — leaving the Eagles free to keep running what’s arguably the most unstoppable play in football.
Since Kelce’s retirement earlier this year, Philadelphia has continued to dominate short-yardage situations. Hurts has converted over 93% of his QB sneaks this season, thanks to the same brute-force coordination Kelce once helped perfect. Against Green Bay, the play could once again serve as the Eagles’ trump card in critical downs.
Kelce, now a national broadcaster but still fiercely loyal to his old team, didn’t hide his pride. “It’s not a trick,” he said. “It’s about execution and power. The other teams can complain, but the Eagles just do it better.”
His words echo what fans across Philadelphia already believe — that the Tush Push isn’t just a play; it’s a symbol of the team’s identity. Built on toughness, chemistry, and confidence, it represents everything that makes the Eagles a nightmare for opponents in the trenches.
As Sunday’s game approaches, all eyes will be on Lincoln Financial Field to see whether the Birds keep proving their critics wrong — one unstoppable push at a time.
