Travis Kelce comments on Jason Kelce phone incident at Penn State

Travis Kelce is firmly on the side of his brother Jason Kelce, as the latter continues to regret his response during a confrontation with a fan last week.

On the November 6 episode of his show “new heights”podcast, the brothers argued Jason Kelce’s Heated Exchange with a college football fan outside Penn State’s Beaver Stadium four days earlier.

The incident, captured on camera phone videos, shows Jason Kelce reacting to a fan who insulted his brother’s relationship with Taylor Swift with a homophobic slur, grabbing the fan’s phone and smashing it to the ground. In one corner, the retired Philadelphia Eagles center appears to repeat the insult.

“I know you wanted to clear things up a little bit, so go ahead,” Travis Kelce said at the beginning of the episode, later adding, “I’m with you, man.”

Jason Kelce later addressed the incident and expressed regret for his response.

“I am not happy with the situation. My reaction gave it the time of day and also brought notoriety to the situation,” Jason Kelce explained. “That’s what I regret, okay? It didn’t deserve attention. It’s really stupid, and if I keep walking, it’s fucking shit, it’s not a burger. Nobody sees it. “Now it’s out there and it’s just perpetuating more hate.”

Jason Kelce also expressed disappointment in the language he used.

“What I regret most is saying that word, to be honest with you. And the word he used is fucking ridiculous, it takes it to another level. “It’s off the wall and over the line,” he added.

“In the heat of the moment, I thought in my head, ‘Hey, what can I say back to him? I’m going to throw that s**t right in his face.’

“Now I know I shouldn’t have done that, because now there’s a video of me saying that word, he saying that word, and it’s not good for anyone,” he added. “I think what I do regret is that there is now a video that is very hateful, that is now online, that has been viewed by millions of people, and I share the blame for perpetuating it and publishing it.”

“I know it weighs on you, brother,” Travis Kelce responded. “That’s bullshit. Obviously, you shouldn’t feel the scrutiny so much.”

“The real situation is that a fucking clown came up to you and talked to you about your family,” Travis Kelce added. “And you reacted in a way that defended your family, and you may have used some words that you regret using, and that is a situation that you have to learn from and take ownership of. And I think owning it and talking about it shows how sincere you are to a lot of people in this world.”

Travis Kelce addressed his brother’s comments from the “Monday night football“Pregame show earlier this week, when Jason Kelce said, “In a heated moment, I chose to greet hate with hate, and I just don’t think that’s a productive thing.”

Referring to his brother’s apology, Travis Kelce said: “Especially what you said Monday night. … One does not choose hate. “That’s just not who you are.”
