Eagles tight end Brent Celek says he has no plans to retire

Brent Celek said that he plans to keep playing football and that has no plans yet to retire from the NFL.

“Yeah, I wanna play,” the Eagles tight end said Tuesday via text message.

Celek, the longest-tenured Eagle, finally won a Super Bowl in his 11th season last month. He said last year that he would wait until after the season to make a decision on his future. The 33-year-old Celek, who has one year left on his contract, also said that he expects to remain with the Eagles.

He is slated to earn $4 million in base salary in 2018.
