Kelce (hernia) is active for Sunday's game against the Texans.

Kelce's presence is nothing but good news for LeSean McCoy, Nick Foles and the Eagles' offense.

Kelce (hernia) is probable for Sunday's game against Houston.

Offensive lineman notes are not often warranted as far as fantasy football concerns go, but this could be an important one. Kelce is one of the league's top centers and is uniquely valuable for the system the Eagles run, quietly making him one of the team's most irreplaceable players. His return is reassuring for the surging LeSean McCoy as the Eagles face off against J.J. Watt.

Kelce will need to have sports hernia surgery and will be out about six weeks the Washington Post reports.

Kelce left the game against the Redskins early, and could now miss nearly two months of the season. His injury will be a critical blow to the Eagle's offensive, adding to an already banged up O-line. Philadelphia will need Kelce to make a quick recovery.

Eagles signed C Jason Kelce to a six-year, $37.5 million contract extension.

The Philadelphia Inquirer wouldn't be surprised if a contract extension for C Jason Kelce is announced soon.

Left tackle Jason Peters signed a four-year extension Wednesday, ensuring he won't hit the free agent market in 2015. Look for the Eagles to execute a similar path with Kelce. He's just 26 years old and coming off a breakout season that saw him grade out as PFF's No. 1 center.

CSN Philly expects the Eagles and C Jason Kelce to hammer out a long-term contract extension before the season.

Kelce is entering the final year of his rookie deal, which is currently scheduled to pay him a base salary of $645,000. After missing 14 games in 2012 with a torn ACL, Kelce came back to start all 16 games this past season and graded out as Pro Football Focus' No. 1 center. He could command $5 million annually.

Eagles C Jason Kelce (knee) has been medically cleared for full participation at training camp.

Kelce tore his ACL during Week 2 last season, one of the first dominoes to fall in the Eagles' season to forget. He may be eased in and will wear braces on both of his knees, but his health does not appear to be an issue right now. Kelce is part of an offensive line that has a chance to make a major leap forward this season.

Eagles C Jason Kelce is "fully recovered" from last year's MCL tear and partially torn MCL.

Kelce was limited at minicamp, but has been medically cleared and will be a full-go for training camp. Now a third-year player, the Eagles believe Kelce is ascending and an ideal athletic fit for Chip Kelly's up-tempo attack.

Eagles C Jason Kelce (knee surgery) and LG Evan Mathis (ankle surgery) are getting in "some" reps in minicamp.

Neither appears to be going full speed quite yet, but it's a good sign ahead of training camp. LT Jason Peters has also resumed practicing after missing time to attend to a personal matter. Slowly but surely, the Eagles are getting their injury-ravaged offensive line back to full health. That's a good thing for coach Chip Kelly, and an even better thing for Michael Vick.

Eagles C Jason Kelce (knee surgery) isn't quite 100 percent just yet.

Kelce tore his MCL and partially tore his ACL last September, but OL coach Jeff Stoutland says he's "very close" to full health. Kelce has been limited to individual drills at OTAs, but we'd expect him to be cleared for minicamp.

Eagles C Jason Kelce (MCL tear, partial ACL tear) is limited to individual drills at OTAs.

Coach Chip Kelly "isn't sure" when Kelce will be cleared for team drills, but he remains on pace to be ready for training camp. On paper, the athletic Kelce is a very strong fit for Kelly's high-octane offense.

Eagles C Jason Kelce (MCL tear, partial ACL tear) to be fully cleared in a month to a month and a half.

"Not all healed up yet," said Kelce, who is five months removed from surgery. "I'm probably about a month, month-and-a-half before I am cleared for football activity. I am full-go in the weight room, full-go in the training room. On the field is the last area where I still have to go full-go." Kelce appeared to be emerging as one of the NFL's best young centers before the injury.

Eagles C Jason Kelce (torn ACL) expects to be ready for training camp.

Kelce started running three weeks ago, and he'll soon begin doing plyometrics and cutting on his surgically-repaired right knee. "Right now, the target date with how I've been rehabbing is somewhere in the minicamps," said Kelce. "The first one I might be a little bit limited, but the second one, we'll go for it."

Eagles C Jason Kelce (torn ACL) has been cleared to resume running.

Kelce is on pace in his rehab after going down in Week 2, and should be ready for the beginning of camp. It's possible he'll spend some time on the active/PUP list, but it would be very surprising if he opened the regular season on reserve/PUP. A svelte (for a center) 6-foot-3, 282 pounds, the third-year pro should help anchor new coach Chip Kelly's fast-paced attack in 2013.

Eagles C Jason Kelce (injured reserve) underwent surgery Thursday, October 18 to repair his torn ACL and MCL.

Kelce was placed on injured reserve in mid-September after going down in Week 2. Because he tore both the MCL and ACL, doctors were forced to wait a month to perform the reconstruction so the swelling would subside. Kelce's loss has been a major factor in Philadelphia's offensive line woes. Their interior pass blocking has been pasted by defenses in the first six games.

Eagles placed C Jason Kelce (knee) on injured reserve, ending his season.

A Tuesday scope revealed that Kelce won't be able to contribute in 2012. It's a major loss for the Eagles, as they'll now have to roll with inexperienced Dallas Reynolds and fringe talent Steve Vallos at the pivot spot. They were already playing without All-Pro left tackle Jason Peters, who tore his Achilles' tendon during the offseason.

Eagles C Jason Kelce will undergo arthroscopic surgery on Tuesday to determine the full extent of his Week 2 knee injury.

The scope is being called "minor" for now as the Eagles assess the damage to Kelce's ACL and MCL. The MCL is definitely fully torn. The team is hopeful Kelce's ACL was only partially torn. If it's determined that Kelce has fully torn the ACL, he'll require reconstructive surgery and be done for the year.

Updating a previous item, Eagles C Jason Kelce sustained a partial ACL tear and full MCL tear in Sunday's win over the Ravens.

The Eagles have not ruled Kelce out for the season just yet. He plans to get a scope and see if his knee will be ready for action in 4-6 weeks. In the meantime, inexperienced Dallas Reynolds will be making the calls from the pivot spot.

Sources tell CSN Philly that Eagles C Jason Kelce (knee) is out for the season.

Kelce was blocking Terrence Cody during the third quarter of Sunday's win over the Ravens when Ed Reed ran into his right knee. If Kelce is indeed done, he'd join starting left tackle Jason Peters on injured reserve. Former practice squadder Dallas Reynolds will step in at center and represent a major downgrade. Sunday marked his first career NFL game.

Eagles C Jason Kelce is headed for an MRI on his right knee.

The Eagles sustained a fistful of injuries Sunday, but they appear most concerned about Kelce's. We can't rule out a torn ligament. Backup Dallas Reynolds would be a major downgrade.
