JASON Kelce admitted there was one little-known star who gave him huge problems on the field.Kelce, 37, is one of the best centers of all time after a legendary career.Pardon My TakeJason Kelce named the player who caused him most problems[/caption]GettyPoona Ford (99) tries to tackle Patrick Mahomes while playing for the Buffalo Bills[/caption]The former Philadelphia Eagles star was in the league from 2011 to 2023.He played against some of the best defensive lineman of the generation during his time in the trenches.But there was one guy who managed to negate Kelces advantage with his unique skill set.For some reason, not the best guys sometimes gave me issues, Kelce said during an appearance on Pardon My Take.Like Poona Ford, backup nose guard.He sometimes gave me the most fits out of anybody.
