Former Philadelphia Eagles center and current ESPN NFL analyst Jason Kelce once again addressed an incident that took place over the weekend with a Penn State fan.
While Kelce was walking through a crowd before the school’s game against rivals Ohio State, one man called his brother – Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce – a f****t for dating Taylor Swift.
Jason responded by grabbing the fan’s phone, smashing it on the ground, kicking it away from the fan and yelling back, ‘Who’s the f****t now?’
He addressed the incident on Monday Night Countdown briefly, but went into greater detail in the newest episode of his ‘New Heights’ podcast.
‘I’m going to address it because I feel it needs one more time and then hopefully we can stop talking about this really stupid situation that occurred,’ Jason began.
‘I’m not happy about the situation. Me reacting gave him the time of day and it also gave this situation notoriety, which I regret.
‘It didn’t deserve attention. It’s really stupid and if I just keep walking it’s a f***ing nothing burger. Nobody sees it. Now, it’s out there and it just perpetuates more hate.
‘The thing that I regret the most is saying that word to be honest with you. The word he used is just f***ing ridiculous and takes it to another level. It’s just off the wall and f***ing over the line. It’s dehumanizing and got under my skin.
‘It elicited a reaction and in the heat of the moment I thought in my head “hey, what can I say back to him? I’m going to throw this s*** right back in his face because f*** him.
‘I know now I shouldn’t have done that because there’s now a video out there of me saying that word, him saying that word and it’s not good for anybody.
‘I think what I do regret is there’s now a video that is very hateful that is now online and has been seen by millions of people and I share fault in perpetuating it and having that out there.’
Travis then weighed in with his own thoughts and backed up his brother while hitting out at the fan.
The Kansas City Chiefs star said: ‘I know it’s weighing on you brother. It sucks. You shouldn’t feel this much, obviously the scrutiny and the media view on it and people passing around the videos that are out there.
‘That’s going to make it a bigger situation than, I think, what it really is.
‘The real situation is that you had some f***ing clown come up to you and talk about your family. You reacted in a way that was defending your family and you might have used some words that you regret using.
‘That’s a situation you’ve just got to learn from and own and I think you owning it and you speaking about it shows how sincere you are to people in this world and shows what you said on Monday night.
‘You don’t choose hate. That’s just not who you are. I love you brother. I think you said that perfectly.’
Campus police are actively investigating the incident, after an initial statement read that no report had been filed.
ESPN also decided not to punish Kelce for his words, especially after he offered an on-air apology.
