Smashes someone's phone after calling Travis Kelce an insult

NFL fans and Pennsylvania residents alike were stunned this weekend after the former Eagles star and current commentator Jason Kelce snapped during a heated encounter at a Saturday morning game between Ohio State and Penn State in Happy Valley.

Jason, known for his no-nonsense attitude on and off the field, reached a breaking point in his patience after an insulting comment about his brother, the Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelceescalated into a fiery moment that was caught on camera.

Initially, a crowd of fans followed Jason Kelce, cheering him on and even demanding punches, but the mood turned sour when a member of the crowd uttered an anti-gay slur against Travis Kelce and his relationship with the pop star Taylor Swift.

In footage circulating online, Jason can be seen stopping abruptly, becoming visibly upset and confronting a man nearby. Moments later, he grabbed the man's phone and violently threw it to the ground, where it made a loud shattering noise, before storming away.

One social media user who shared the clip on has become comfortable saying ridiculous shit.” People who can really captivate their audience. Good for him.

Viewer targets Travis Kelce

Although the offensive insult clearly provoked Jason, some questions remain as to whether he was targeting the right person.

No footage has emerged to clearly identify who in the crowd shouted the insult, and it's unclear whether Jason accidentally grabbed the wrong person's phone. However, an additional perspective shows the man arguing with Jason immediately before the incident, although it is unknown whether he was the one responsible for the initial insult.

Fans praise Jason Kelce for his actions

After watching video of the incident, many fans of the Kelce brothers (and Taylor Swift) praised the retired NFL player for his stance.

“Making fun of the family of a 6-foot man is an interesting choice,” said one X user.

“It's crazy that in 2024 people are actually using the F-slur offensively – how miserable you must be there,” expressed another.

“A man is considered a fag for dating one of the most successful/desired women in the world?” said a third, referring to Taylor Swift.

“Good for Jason,” said a fourth, adding: “This guy is a loser.”

The comments continued, with one social media user claiming: “This is exactly how trolls should be dealt with in real life.”

“Kudos to Jason Kelce,” said another, adding, “He's not someone you want to mess with, especially when you're badmouthing your brother.”

“And he did the right thing… no one would hear shit about his brother and the girl he's dating, especially if it's Taylor Swift,” another expressed. “We support Jason Kelce.”

“Have you ever wondered what a Keyboard Warrior looks like in real life?” One X user was asked.

The Kelce brothers also host a popular podcast called “New Heights,” where they share stories from their lives, discuss current sporting events, and often tease each other.

The podcast gave fans a glimpse into their relationship, which is characterized by a mix of brotherly competition and unconditional support. As brothers, the two share a close and often humorous bond that is well documented both on and off the football field.

The Kelce brothers were born just two years apart – Jason in 1987 and Travis in 1989 – and grew up in Ohio. Since childhood, they have been each other's biggest supporters and occasional rivals.
