Former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce apologized Monday for smashing the phone of a person after an anti-gay slur was used to refer to his brother, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. “Listen, I’m not happy with anything that took place. I’m not proud of it,” Jason Kelce said on ESPN’s “Monday Night Countdown,” where he is a panelist on the pre-game show. “And in a heated moment, I chose to greet hate with hate. And I just don’t think that that’s a productive thing.
In the background, a man can be heard shouting at Kelce and then using a homophobic slur to describe Travis Kelce in reference to his relationship with pop superstar Taylor Swift. In the videos, Jason Kelce then appears to turn around, grab the man’s phone, smash it to the ground, pick it up again and walk away. Another angle appears to show the man chasing after Kelce and asking for his phone. In this video, Kelce appears to repeat the slur to the person.
