Jason Kelce from the Philadelphia Eagles, went through a McDonald’s drive through and gave an employee something special.
Jason is an American football center for the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFL. He and his brother Travis also host a podcast called New Heights. If the name Travis Kelce sounds familiar, it should. He too plays for the NFL for the Kansas City Chiefs and is dating Taylor Swift.

Danielle Bonham Was Starstuck
Danielle Bonham, the McDonald’s employee, was starstruck when Jason Kelce came through her drive through for the first time. So much so that she took a photo and posted it on her Facebook, gaining a lot of attention.
Jason continued to come through the drive through and now knows Danielle by name. Right before Christmas he came through and the two had a very touching conversation. “I thanked him for everything he does for the community.” Danielle said. “To my surprise, he turned around and expressed gratitude, thanking me for always being kind. He went on to say, ‘You’re one of the best people that works for this corporation.’ It was such a touching moment that I almost found myself in tears.”
Jason Kelce Could Be Retiring
In a Youtube video from Fox 29 Philadelphia, we hear that Jason could be retiring from the NFL in the near future. They talk about the love the community of Havertown, PA, a suburb 30 minutes outside of Philadelphia, has for Jason who owns a home there.
Carl Henderson of Carl’s Cards and Collectibles went on to say, “I’ve seen a lot of sports athletes come and go but Jason’s a special dude.” He also made the comment that “He’s got his foot print all over this town.”
It is clear that Jason is a big part of the Havertown community and has touched many of the people who live there, just like he has touched the life of Danielle.
The video has a clip of Danielle and she tells Fox 29 that when Jason started going through the drive through, she was going through a difficult time in her life. She says, “He motivated me when I didn’t have much motivation.”
