Jason Kelce Apologizes on ESPN After Smashing Fan's Phone, Repeating Homophobic Slur at Penn State Game
Nov 4, 2024, 11:52 PM
Jason Kelce, retired Philadelphia Eagles center and current ESPN commentator, was involved in an altercation with a fan at Penn State's football game against Ohio State on Saturday. Video footage showed Kelce smashing a man's phone after the man directed a homophobic slur at his brother, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, in reference to Travis's relationship with pop star Taylor Swift. Kelce was also heard repeating the slur back at the fan during the incident, which went viral online. Penn State police have confirmed they are investigating the incident. On ESPN's "Monday Night Countdown," Jason Kelce publicly apologized for his actions, stating, "In a heated moment, I chose to greet hate with hate, and I just don't think that's a productive thing. I'm not proud of it." The incident has sparked discussions about responses to hate speech and the appropriate handling of such situations.
