Former NFL star Jason Kelce, known for his 13-year career with the Philadelphia Eagles, confronted a Penn State fan who directed a homophobic slur at his brother, Travis Kelce, on Saturday. The incident occurred near Beaver Stadium in State College, where Jason was set to appear on ESPN’s “College GameDay” ahead of the Penn State vs. Ohio State matchup.
In a video shared widely on social media, a fan taunted Jason, saying, “How does it feel that your brother is a f* for dating Taylor Swift?” Jason reacted by grabbing the fan’s phone, smashing it to the ground, and walking away with the phone. The fan, wearing a Penn State hoodie, appeared stunned as he retrieved the broken device from the ground.
The Kelce brothers have gained widespread attention recently, with Travis’s relationship with pop star Taylor Swift making him a major figure in both sports and entertainment media. While some social media users debated whether Jason’s actions were justified, many supported him, praising his reaction to the offensive remarks.
The incident highlights the challenges public figures face with increasing exposure and the often intrusive behavior of fans seeking viral moments.
