planned two years ago to retire, believing 2021 would be his 11th and final season in the NFL. He walked-on in college and entered the NFL as a late-round lottery ticket before blossoming into one of the league’s elite offensive linemen and earning a Super Bowl ring. Kelce was finished.teammate Connor Barwin — hatched an idea. He wanted his farewell season to be a documentary centered around the theme of what it is like for a professional athlete to walk away.

They’ve been honored at film festivals around the world and praised by Roger Ebert.

That you’re going to be spending a ton of time together. The times when your instincts are, ‘Hey guys, don’t shoot this,’ are the times where as documentary filmmakers we’re going to be like, ‘No. This is stuff we have to get. You want to get this.
