I wouldn't be where I am today without the strong bond I share with Travis. It has helped me grow stronger, more resilient, and wiser, while teaching me the importance of teamwork, loyalty, patience, and empathy. It's fitting that I found fulfillment in my career in the City of Brotherly Love, as I understand the significance of that kind of relationship all too well.

In conclusion, I want to express my gratitude to the city of Philadelphia.

Jason expressed his lifelong goal of playing his entire career in one city, feeling grateful for the perfect fit in Philadelphia. He looks forward to new challenges ahead, carrying lessons learned and cherishing the bond of being a Philadelphian.
