Kelce is transitioning to TV after announcing his retirement, but his former teammate says he never leaves the Eagles building.
Elliot and Kelce were teammates from 2017 to 2023, after he was drafted by the Cincinnati Bengals and then cut.
The Eagles kicker faced questions about his teammate’s retirement and what kind of impact not having them in the building would have.
“These guys won’t be far away. I know (Kelce) is already in the building almost every day,” Elliott said.
“They will always be a big part of our organization.”
Elliot was pressed about the potential of Kelce not retiring, but said he would leave that to Kelce to figure out.
“That’s not my problem, you can talk to Jason about it,” Elliot said.
Elliot also made it clear that he never asked Kelce to come out of retirement.

Kelce officially retired in a tearful ceremony in March after the NFL season ended.
“I am retiring from the NFL after 13 seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles,” said Kelce.
“Thank you Philadelphia from the bottom of my heart.”
Jason’s wife, Kylie, said he spent four years working on his retirement speech, which probably means there’s no chance of him coming out of retirement.
Additionally, Kelce recently signed a deal to join ESPN on Monday Night Football broadcasts.
A source told The US Sun that Kelce will earn $1.8 million a year with a $1 million signing bonus.
‘Roasted Tom Brady? I don’t understand’
JASON Kelce watched roast Tom Brady on Netflix like most sports fans.
But the Philadelphia Eagles legend didn’t understand what was going on.
Speaking on his New Heights podcast with brother Travis, Jason said: “It was pure entertainment and I’m really happy they did it, but I just don’t understand what’s going on.
“I don’t know why people do this. Maybe I take myself too seriously.
“It was star-studded – but that said, I didn’t really get it.
“I don’t understand why people bake. I don’t understand why they are a thing.
“’Haha, yeah, my family is ruined, it’s so funny, everyone’s laughing, it’s great, we’re having fun, yeah, right.’”
“He is already asking other crew members for advice and preparing for his next move,” the source said.
“I knew he wanted to be an analyst to begin with, as it would give him great insight into the TV industry.
“The transition from retirement to something new has been seamless. He loves football, loves his new life and feels this next step is perfect for him to transition and stay in the football industry for many, many more years.”
The US Sun has also learned that the Kelce brothers have been approached by Hollywood bosses who have a $100 million budget to film an action movie featuring the stars.
