The McDonald’s employee also got a picture clicked with the legend, where she is proudly showing off her precious gift with Kelce posing with a bright smile from his car, outside the outlet window, as she shared the picture with Philadelphia’s Fox television affiliate.

It’s truly a wholesome moment for Bonham and many other Kelce’s fans, who are filled with tears seeing their favorite center’s retirement buzz. And it seems like, as Kelce couldn’t end his football career with a victory, he is pivoting his energy on ending things on a beautiful note with everyone around him, starting with his favorite McDonald’s employee.

Philadelphia Eagles’ loss in the wildcard game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers was an emotional moment for the whole team, but especially for center Kelce. He was seen all teared up on the sideline, raising speculations about it being his last game before retirement.

Kelce later addressed the whole thing on his “New Heights” podcast alongside brother Travis Kelce. He acknowledged his emotional breakdown but refused to make an official statement. He explained:

I just don't think you're in a position after a game like that, to really make that decision. I just don't.

Kelce shared his frustration over his team’s loss at such a crucial level but didn’t elaborate anything on what’s happening all over the media, believing it would be disrespectful toward people’s feelings.
