NFL fans hail 'incredible' Jason Kelce over $1million charity gesture after Eagles legend's Speedo dance

Jason and Kylie Kelce has been widely praised after helping raise more than $1million for the Eagles Autism Foundation.

The former NFL star and his wife were joined by a host of Philadelphia players including Super Bowl heroes Cooper DeJean and Landon Dickerson for their annual fundraiser, ‘Shore Birds’.

The Kelces took over Sea Isle City, near Atlantic City, for what turned out to be their ‘most successful’ event ever.

‘The last couple of days were intense, but by far our most successful Shore Birds event to date!’ he wrote on Instagram alongside a collection of clips from the event.
