Jason Kelce was caught on camera using a homophobic several times after he snatched a phone out of the hand of a heckler and smashed it.
Now, he has former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown commenting on the situation.
In now-viral footage, the retired Philadelphia Eagles star—who was outside Beaver Stadium in State College, Pa., for the Penn State-Ohio State game—can be seen walking while football fans surround him.
One fan decided he was going to elicit a reaction from Jason Kelce by yelling a homophobic slur in the retired Philadelphia Eagles star’s direction.
“Hey, Kelce. How does it feel your brother’s a f—– dating Taylor Swift?” the man asked.
Jason turned around, grabbed the man’s phone out of his hands, and smashed it on the ground.
Additional footage circulating on X showed a closer-up angle of Jason smashing the phone before he picked it up and walked away.
The NFL alum stood in front of the man and said, “Who’s the f—– now?”
Former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown saw the incident and decided to award Jason Kelce his “Cracker of the Day” award.
He posted a photoshopped picture of Kelce pointing towards a board that had the scientific method of f–king around and then finding out.

Jason Kelce inked a “Monday Night Countdown” deal with ESPN after retiring from the NFL at the end of last season.
He has yet to address the incident.
Jason Kelce Gets Called Out by Philly Host Over Phone And Slur Situation
A Philadelphia-based podcast and YouTube host believes Jason Kelce needs to hire security for encounters for incidents like he experienced on Saturday.
Kelce, according to Jon Marks, shouldn’t have slammed the phone because of his celebrity status.
“Kelce has to realize that his profile is bigger than it ever was as a player,” Marks, a former sports radio host in the city where Kelce spent his 13-year career as the Eagles’ center, wrote in a post on X. “He’s making big $$$ across [multiple] platforms, and his brother might marry the biggest pop star ever. He can’t be spiking people’s phones. He needs security to deal with this s–t.”
