Jason Kelce explains why he colored his hair blond

Just ahead of the Eagles’ season opener, veteran center Jason Kelce debuted a bright blond new look at practice. We heard from Kelce for the first time since on Thursday and he explained how it was the result of losing a bet to tight end — and also recently blond — Zach Ertz.

“The bet was that if Zach [Ertz] was still here Week 1, I gotta dye my hair like Zach. Again, not happy with the hair, but happy I lost the bet.”

Kelce wouldn’t say what the terms were if he had won the bet, but admitted that he firmly thought Ertz was going to get traded the offseason.
