As the conversation swirled around the playful banter, Kelce adeptly pivoted to more serious matters. He recounted the challenges he faced early in his career due to the knee injury that required multiple MRIs and eventually microfracture surgery. The procedure, notoriously invasive, involved drilling holes in the cartilage bones to stimulate blood flow and assist in rebuilding the cartilage — a harrowing but necessary step in Kelce's illustrious career.
