ESPN analyst and former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce addressed the cell phone smashing incident with a heckling fan on Saturday.
Jason Kelce was at the Penn State-Ohio State contest in Happy Valley on Saturday. While he was walking about, cameras caught a heckling fan going up to Jason and calling his brother Travis a f****t.
A provoked Jason smashed the fan’s cell phone to the ground and said, “Who’s the f****t now?” A video of the incident is available below, but be warned that it contains language that will disturb some viewers.
Can’t blame Jason Kelce here… what a loser

During today’s edition of “Monday Night Countdown” at Arrowhead Stadium, Kelce addressed the incident and expressed regret over what transpired:
“Listen, I’m not happy with anything that took place. I’m not proud of it. In a heated moment, I chose to greet hate with hate, and I just don’t think that’s a productive thing…In that moment I fell down to a level that I shouldn’t have. Bottom line is, I want to live my life…I try to treat people with common decency and respect…
Even though I fell short this week, I’m gonna do that moving forward.”
