Football is back this week for the NFL, and the Philadelphia Eagles kicked off their social media campaign with an Instagram reel promoting their opening game against the Green Bay Packers in Rio de Janeiro on September 6th. The reel starts with none other than Mr. Jason Kelce doing his best to tie a fly at his desk, but it doesn’t seem to be going well, with materials and thread hanging in a tangled mess under his travel vise’s jaws. Did he pick up the hobby in his retirement? Has he secretly been a fly angler and tyer all these years? The official Flylords investigation is ongoing, and we’re doing our best to find out!

We certainly hope he picked up fly fishing in his retirement like so many before him, and we’ll see him floating on some of our favorite eastern rivers this season!
And Jason, if you’re somehow reading this, I’d love to offer you a few fly-tying lessons and a day on the water here in PA. We can even schedule it around the Eagles’ bye week so you don’t miss any of Travis’ plays!
