Travis Kelce's brother speaks out after angry confrontation with fan over Taylor Swift dig

The brother of NFL star Travis Kelce has spoken out after confronting a fan who made a dig at Taylor Swift. Jason Kelce, 37, was heckled outside the Beaver Stadium before Penn State played Ohio State on Saturday (November 2) in the US.

A fan called Kansas City Chiefs star, Travis, 35, a f****t for dating the Bad Blood Billionaire, who is 35. Jason, also an NFL star who retired in March, responded to the insult by grabbing the fan's phone, reports MirrorOnline.

He then smashed it on the ground, kicked the phone away and yelled back: "Who's the f****t now?" Jason addressed the incident briefly as he spoke on the newest episode of his New Heights' podcast.

The Eagles star called the situation "stupid" and explained: "I'm going to address it because I feel it needs one more time and then hopefully we can stop talking about this really stupid situation that occurred. I'm not happy about the situation.

"Me reacting gave him the time of day and it also gave this situation notoriety, which I regret. It didn't deserve attention. It's really stupid and if I just keep walking it's a f***ing nothing burger. Nobody sees it. Now, it's out there and it just perpetuates more hate."

Claiming his biggest regret was repeating the homophobic slur, he continued: "The thing that I regret the most is saying that word to be honest with you. The word he used is just f***ing ridiculous and takes it to another level. It's just off the wall and f***ing over the line. It's dehumanising and got under my skin."

Jason concluded: "I know now I shouldn't have done that because there's now a video out there of me saying that word, him saying that word and it's not good for anybody." Supporting his brother, Travis championed him for 'supporting his family', saying: "I know it's weighing on you brother.

"It sucks. You shouldn't feel this much, obviously the scrutiny and the media view on it and people passing around the videos that are out there. That's going to make it a bigger situation than, I think, what it really is.

"The real situation is that you had some f***ing clown come up to you and talk about your family. You reacted in a way that was defending your family and you might have used some words that you regret using.

"That's a situation you've just got to learn from and own and I think you owning it and you speaking about it shows how sincere you are to people in this world and shows what you said on Monday night. You don't choose hate. That's just not who you are. I love you brother. I think you said that perfectly."
