Philadelphia Eagles star center Jason Kelce showed his elite run-blocking ability on Monday night in his team's brilliant win against the Kansas City Chiefs. 

Kelce, 36, came to running back D'Andre Swift's aid in the first quarter by blocking Chiefs safety Justin Reid with power and a turn of pace that left viewers in shock.

Kelce ran full-speed downfield before completing the block and tossing Reid to the side to make way for Swift. Kelce towered over his downed opponent as Swift ran between them to edge the ball closer to the goal line.


Kelce was praised by fans on social media for his incredible speed and strength.

'It's unfair,' FS1 analyst Colin Cowherd wrote on X (formerly Twitter). 'Jason Kelce should not be this fast.'

'Jason Kelce threw that man out of the club,' Barstool Sports wrote. 

An Eagles fan page pointed out how Kelce moves better than most 36-year-olds. A fan then responded: 'I'm 38 and I tweaked my back doing laundry today.' 

The Eagles finished the game with a 21-17 win as Kelce got his first NFL victory over the Chiefs and younger brother Travis. 

Philadelphia proved themselves as the team to beat in the NFL this season with their fourth straight win. The Eagles are now 9-1 on top of the NFC East.

'Listen, I'm really happy,' Kelce said after the game. 'I would have probably been happier if we would have put together a really dominant performance offensively and played great. 

'I think the fact that we didn't do that makes it a littler bittersweet. I think the defense is largely why we won the game today. Hats off to those guys, and I'm certainly happy to be 9-1.'

The Eagles look to extend their win streak as they gear up to face the Buffalo Bills on November 26.
