Jason Kelce is being praised online for defending his brother Travis’ name.
The former NFL star made his way to Saturday’s game between Penn State and Ohio State and was seen toting beer to the game, with fans crowding him as he headed to the stadium.
Kelce mostly ignored all the folks calling his name, but one Nittany Lions supporter got his attention after he suggested Travis was a “fa**ot” for dating Taylor Swift.
The new ESPN analyst immediately turned back, grabbed the fan’s phone, and slammed it into the ground.
“Jason Kelce is the f***ing man! Takes a dudes phone and smashes it on the ground after he calls his brother a homophobic slur,” the Crossing Broad X account captioned a video of the incident, which can be seen below.

Fans Thought Jason Kelce Did The Right Thing
Of course, Jason Kelce didn’t exactly have a right to smash a fan’s phone over something he said, whether he was recording him or not. But no one felt like he was in the wrong, and we can certainly understand why.
“Fellas is it gay to date the most popular woman on Earth?” someone asked.
“That lawsuit will be worth every penny,” someone else pointed out.
“A generation of kids that have never been punched in the face. This is the result,” another fan wrote.
“Imagine calling your dad from college and explaining why your phone is in 1000 pieces and you need a new one,” someone joked.
People have been getting way to comfortable being disrespectful to these guys like they couldn’t absolutely flatten them if they wanted too

This could have a pretty interesting outcome.
