Jason Kelce took to his podcast – with Travis Kelce voicing support for his brother – to once again express regret for his actions.
Former NFL All-Pro center Jason Kelce took to his podcast – with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce voicing support for his brother – to once again express regret for his actions after a viral video captured a “heated moment” between the retired Super Bowl champion and a fan over the weekend at Penn State. The video shows an interaction between Jason Kelce and a heckler outside the university’s football stadium where Penn State played Ohio State on Saturday. Kelce was at the game as part of Pat McAfee’s Kicking Contest put on by ESPN’s “College GameDay.” A fan is heard using a homophobic slur directed at Jason Kelce about Travis Kelce, who is dating Taylor Swift. Jason Kelce turned around, grabbed someone’s cellphone, and spiked it to the ground. Kelce is then heard repeating the homophobic slur toward the person. Jason Kelce, who previously apologized Monday during ESPN’s “Monday Night Countdown,” spoke again about the incident during the opening of his “New Heights” podcast with Travis Kelce, which released Wednesday. “Me reacting gave him the time of day, and it also gave the situation notoriety,” Jason Kelce said. “That’s what I regret. It didn’t deserve attention. It’s really stupid.
